About Me

Links

I am a graduate student working under Dr. Terran Lane in machine learning. My research focuses on unsupervised classification of heterogeneous data with hidden variables. Currently, I'm trying to identify sub-types of schizophrenia by clustering patient behevioural data.

I'm currently maintaining a small set of vim scripts to use with the Ciao programming langauge


My non-academic interests include reading (Currently reading: Practical Common Lisp by Paul Graham, Fudoki by Kij Johnson, and Startide Rising by David Brin), choral music, guitar, writing, video games (Currently Valkyrie Profile II: Silmeria). The writings and drawings sections are mostly gone for now: I'll add/update after my next big chunk of break.

If you were looking for an interesting geek's page, I don't have one.. but I know someone who does. At least, if you're interested in comics or pretty art. Or John Denver. I'm not so sure I should be promoting the John Denver though...

Oh, and the hat is purely cosmetic. I promise. Finally, I'm on a new project to find easy, quick, at least nominally healthy recipes that can be made with mostly cheap ingredients with long shelf lives:

Old stuff:

Fall 2004, I TA-ed CS152: Programming Fundamentals for CS Majors.
Labs, office hours, and other useful tidbits can be found on the CS152 TA page.
