My research interests are in developing novel algorithms and statistical models for solving problems that arise in high-throughput biology, computational neuroscience and camera networks. In my work, I develop as well as utilize ideas from Computer Vision, Signal Processing and Machine Learning.

I received my PhD in May 2008 under the supervision of Professor Shankar Sastry from Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences department at UC-Berkeley. In June 2008, I joined Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Janelia Farm Research Campus to work with Dr. Eugene Myers. While at Berkeley, I used to attend the Computer Vision meeting, and Heterogenous Sensor Networks Meeting.
