   RESEARCH
I am a member of UCSD Database Group and my acdemic advisor is Yannis Papakonstantinou. I'm particularly interested in search algorithms that enable database/Web users to retrieve high-quality personalized search results in a resonable amount of time. My thesis title is "Efficient and Versatile Keyword Search over Large-Scale Graph-Structured Data".
