My general research interests are data mining, business analytics, and statistical computing. I am passionate about developing methodology, models, and algorithms for discovering useful knowledge from data, which can support real-world decision making. My work has been published in refereed journals and conference proceedings, including Machine Learning, INFORMS Journal on Computing, IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering (TKDE), European Journal of Operational Research (EJOR), ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD), and IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM).
