Resume

I am a second year master student in the Language Technologies Institute, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University. I am working with Prof. Jaime Carbonell, currently doing a research on active learning.
Last year I worked on a project that finds synonymous phrases of a given phrase based on statistics from a large corpus. A link to its web service will be up soon!

I did my undergraduate at CMU, double majoring in computer science and mathematics. In 2006-2007, I was one of the members of CMU Dragons, which represented CMU at ACM ICPC. (an article from old cmu main page)

Research Interest

My research interests include active learning, semi-supervised learning, probabilistic graphical models and statistical machine learning.

Selected Publication:

StructHDP: Automatic inference of number of clusters from admixed genotype data.
S. Shringarpure, D. Won and E. P. Xing, The Nineteenth International Conference on Intelligence Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB 2011). Bioinformatics 2011. (Journal Link)
