Assistant Professor, Electrical Engineering & Computer Science,

I joined EECS Department at University of California Irvine in August 2010. I am a member of the center for pervasive communications and computing (CPCC). I was a post-doctoral researcher between 2009-2010 at the Stochastic Systems Group working with Prof. Alan Willsky. I graduated with a PhD from Cornell University with Prof. Lang Tong as my advisor. I spent summers at the networking technologies group, IBM Watson Research, Hawthorne, NY. I routinely visit Microsoft Research, New England as a consulting researcher.

My research focus is in the area of inference and learning of graphical models. Broadly I am interested in high-dimensional statistics, information theory, signal processing, random graph models for networks and statistical physics.

Prospective students/ Postdoctoral researchers/ Visitors

I am looking for graduate students with a strong mathematical background in probability and statistics, algorithms and graph theory. If my research sounds exciting, apply to graduate program here. Please do not contact me directly. I will not be able to respond to individual queries. I also do not plan to offer undergraduate summer internships. Please do not send me emails asking for one.

I am also interested in hosting postdoctoral researchers and visitors. Drop me an email if you are interested.
