USC - ISI Research Professor of Computer Science and Spatial Sciences
I am
Director of Knowledge Technologies and lead the
Interactive Knowledge Capture research group at
USC's
Information Sciences Institute (ISI). My research focuses on intelligent interfaces for knowledge capture, which is a central topic in our projects concerning knowledge-based planning and problem solving, information analysis and assessment of trust, semantic annotation tools, agent and software choreography, and community-wide development of knowledge bases. A recent focus is assisting scientists with intelligent systems that analyze data, test hypotheses, and make new discoveries.I am the
Associate Division Director for Research of the Intelligent Systems Division at
ISI. The division is home to more than one hundred AI researchers and PhD students. If you would like to visit ISI, give a talk, or join our research group, please contact me!
I am also
Research Professor in the

a new course for teaching data science to non-programmers, which I teach in the
Communications Informatics and the
Spatial Informatics programs.
