Jierui(Jerry) Xie

Jerry Xie received his Ph.D. degree in computer science from RPI in 2012. He is a researcher whose interests include data mining, machine learning, social networks and wireless sensor networks. He is interested in applying data mining and machine learning technologies to knowledge/pattern discovery, classification, clustering in Internet, sensor network and social network. His current focus includes fast community detection, opinion spreading, big data analysis.

- Community detection in social networks - Opinion/influence spreading in social networks - Pattern/event/human activity recognition for context-aware applications - Density based anomaly detection/change detection - Learning similarity/dissimilarity for categorical data - Text mining (e.g., burstiness-aware doc search) - Simulation of stochastic dynamics in networks - Resource optimization using neural networks - Routing protocol in wireless sensor networks.
