Office hours for Fall 2008:
- Mondays, 1:50 PM - 3:00 PM, in Boliou 20
- ... and by appointment. This term is wacky for me; my IDSC 100 students will want to see me in the sculpture studio, whereas my comps students and advisees will want to see me in my office. So I'm intentionally running my office hours in a relatively free form manner. I'm very happy to meet with students! Just email or call me and we'll set something up if the above time in Boliou doesn't work.
About me:
I am an associate
professor of computer science at Carleton College, where I teach
Introduction to Computer Science, Data Stuctures, Programming
Languages, Artificial Intelligence, Database Systems, Data Mining, and
other occasional courses.
My research focuses on solving machine learning and data mining problems. Currently, I'm working on the EDAM project (Exploratory Data Analysis and Monitoring), which is an interdisciplinary project involving computer scientists, chemists, and atmospheric scientists. My current research students are Sami Benzaid, Janara Christensen, and Emma Turetsky, all of whom are working on the EDAM project. I also maintain a long term interest in suport vector machines, text mining, learning in the presence of rare classes, and semisupervised learning.
