About

After earning my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Washington in collaboration with Stanford University and IBM Almaden Research Center I am visiting Stanford University. I also spent some time doing research on Big data and Big learning at Google and Data integration, Bioinformatics at IBM Almaden. Most of my current work is in Big learning, and Biomedical informatics. Before coming to Seattle I earned my B.Sc. from St. Petersburg University of IT, Mechanics, and Optics (ACM World champions).

Selected research projects

ReadFast - a new structural Information Retrieval (IR) engine for large text corpuses. Can be used to retrieve and browse patient history (EHR) and relevant literature to speed up clinical decision making and improve patient safety. Was recently invited for publication as a book chapter by Springer.
Unified Famous Objects (UFO) - a new self-learning information extraction and fusion technology.
Can be used to automatically find and fuse needed data from many sources to assist with Alzheimer's Disease diagnosis. Was recently highlighted in the book on data management published by Springer.

RankHive During my internship at Google I was doing research on Web scale distributed machine learning.
