Create coursework, hold office hours and discussion sections, grade, and mentor projects in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and statistical relational learning.

On a research team, we focus on statistical relational learning, probabilistic reasoning and scalable inference, and their applications to problems in computational social science, knowledge discovery, data mining, and computational biology. On the theoretical side, we introduce new theory and algorithms for efficient reasoning, learning, and inference. On the practical side, we apply our methods on a range of applications including user modelling, explainable recommender systems, and social… Show more On a research team, we focus on statistical relational learning, probabilistic reasoning and scalable inference, and their applications to problems in computational social science, knowledge discovery, data mining, and computational biology.
