- Research Interests
-
I conduct research in the design, analysis, and applications
of algorithms. I also use techniques from optimization,
probability, stochastics, and game theory in my research. I
like to get deep into applications, with the goal being
tangible impact in the application domain, not just
collaborations with practitioners or papers in applied
venues. Current application interests include Social Networks
and Social
Algorithms;
Crowdsourced
Democracy; Internet Commerce; Reputation, Recommendation,
and Trust Systems; Algorithms for large scale data
processing. In addition to advancing technology, I am also
excited about developing algorithms that improve how we
interact with each other and the networked world around
us.
I get asked often about my stint at Twitter,
where I was a research fellow and technical advisor for five years.
