Algorithms for Big Data Analytics: Geometric Data Analysis, Computational Geometry, Coresets and Sketches, Machine Learning, Spatial Statistics, Data Management, AI, Handling Uncertainty, Data Mining.  In more general buzz words:  Data Science & AI.  

I specialize in developing novel algorithms, analysis, and structural understanding for key techniques throughout data science and AI.  My work uses techniques from geometry (high- and low-dimensional), algorithms, statistics, and linear algebra.  My work has developed some of the most efficient methods for small space summaries of massive data sets with gaurantees.  It has also developed new methods for understanding high- and low-dimensional analysis techniques based on connections to computational geometry.  While my work is driven from mathematical foundations and principals, I strive to demonstrated practical efficiencies and uses cases, and work with a wide variety of domains, including astronomy, geo-spatial data, and natural language.
