I am a third year graduate student at the Computer Science department of University of Maryland, College Park.
I am primarily interested in approximation algorithms, combinatorial optimization and probabilistic methods.
During my master's thesis I have worked on data-streaming algorithms. I also love working on algorithmic problems arising in the area of databases.
I am very happy to have Dr. Samir Khuller as my advisor.
Courses:
- Complexity Theory (Aravind Srinivasan) (audit)
- Numerical Analysis (Eitan Tadmor)
- Probabilistic Methods (Aravind Srinivasan)
- Combinatorial Optimization (Samir Khuller)
- Communication Complexity (William Gasarch)
- Algorithms for Biosequence Analysis (Mihai Pop)
- Sensor Data Management and Data streams (Amol Deshpande)
- Link Mining & Dynamic Network Analysis (Lise Getoor)
- How to do Research (Clyde Kruskal)
