Clint P. George

I am a doctorate student from the Department of Computer and Information Science and Engineering, University of Florida. My doctoral adviser is Dr. Joseph N. Wilson.

My research interests include:

• Machine learning
• Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods
• Graphical models

Before joining to the doctoral program, I was a master's student at the Department of Computer and Information Science and Engineering, University of Florida. Dr. Joseph N. Wilson was my thesis adviser. I completed my undergraduation in Computer Science and Engineering from the College of Engineering, Trivandrum, University of Kerala, India.

I am currently interested in the applications of topic modeling framework to continuous time varying corpora (e.g. twitter, news streams), nonparametric Bayesian learning (e.g. Hierarchical LDA), and online topic inference methods. For this work, I am collaborating with Dr. Paul Gader , Dr. Joseph Wilson, and Dr. George Casella. I worked with Dr. Joseph N. Wilson as a research assistant for the project Morpheus, a semantic based question answering system using deep web sources by exploiting information from the DBpedia and Wikipedia along with sample query answering strategies provided by users.
