We were funded by the Office of Naval Research to employ graph mining techniques for cybersecurity. This is an STTR Phase 1 award in collaboration with Charles River Analytics
Alex Gorovits received both a departmental travel award and a travel award from SIGKDD to attend the conference in August in London, UK. Congratulations to Alex!
Our paper LARC: Learning Activity-Regularized Overlapping Communities Across Time with lead author Alex Gorovits was accepted to SIG KDD 2018. It is in collaboration with Ekta Grujal and Vagelis Papalexakis from UCR. Promotional video available here
We will be participants in the program on Computational Simulation of Online Social Behavior SocialSim funded by DARPA. We are part of a team ucluding University of Central Florida and the Institure for Human and Machine congnition.
Petko Bogdanov was invited to present the group’s research on data-driven materials design at Los Alamos National Lab.
We were awarded a Presidential Innovation Fund for Research and Scholarship grant on “A systems-oriented framework for mining complex subgraphs” ($41k) with Jeong-Hyon Hwang and Feng Chen.
We were awarded a seed FRAP-A grant of $9936 for a project on “Learning the Clock of Network Processes”.
Petko Bogdanov was awarded a certificate for highly cited research from the Journal of Poetics.
Petko Bogdanov will be presenting a tutorial on “Anomalous and Significant Subgraph Detection in Attributed Networks” together with F. Chen, D. Neill (CMU) and A. Singh (UCSB) at the IEEE BigData'2016 conference.
Petko Bogdanov received a subaward of $70,774 from the grant “Cracking the Color Code of DNA-stabilized Metal Nanoclusters with Rapid Optical Array Characterization and Machine Learning” funded by NSF and lead by E. Gwinn at UCSB. The funding is for data-driven synthesis of soft materials.
Tim Larock graduated with an honors BS degree and joined the Network science PhD program at Northeastern university in Boston. Gaurav Ghosh and Sruthi Gudibandi graduated with MS degrees. Congratulations to all graduates!
The lab hosted three Summer interns: Rodrigo Sarmento - an undergraduate student from Brazil who worked on gene expression analysis in interaction networks; Jihu Mun - a high shool senior from Shaker high who worked on visualizing DNA motifs for silver cluster synthesis; and Adeel Minhas - an undergraduate student from RPI working on attributed network analysis.
Tim Larock received the Presidential Undergraduate Award for Research for his project on “Adaptive Load Balancing in Cellular Networks”, co-advised with Prof. Mariya Zheleva
Petko Bogdanov was awarded an internal seed FRAP-A grant of $9080 for a project on “Detecting and Modeling Bursty Network Processes”.
