NEWS
Our paper
titled Analyzing Twitter Users' Behavior Before and After Contact
by the Russia's Internet Research Agency has been accepted for
publication in The ACM Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous
Technologies (IMWUT) and will be presented in CSCW 2021.
Good news: NSF has just funded our research
project titled Empowering Environmental Justice Communities with Smart
and Connected Technology: Air and Noise Pollution, Wellbeing, and Social
Relations in Times of Disruption under Smart & Connected
Communities program within the CNS division.
Our NSF Industry-University
Cooperative Research Center (IUCRC) on Pervasive Personalized Intelligence
has been officially launched. See the center details at https://www.ppicenter.org/.
If you are working in industry on areas related to AI/ML/system
support/security-privacy for IoT systems, we would love to talk to you and
hold a discovery session with you. Please contact us by email.
I have
multiple opening for Ph.D. students in my research group. If you are
interested in research areas related to systems and networking, IoT or social
computing, please check out my current research and contact me.
