Author: Eugene Agichtein
Eugene Agichtein is an Assistant Professor in the Mathematics and Computer Science Department at Emory University. Previously, Eugene was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Text Mining, Search, and Navigation group at Microsoft Research, working on text and web mining for information retrieval. He received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Columbia University in 2005, and a B.S. in Engineering from The Cooper Union in 1998. Eugene is a recipient of the “Best Student Paper” award at the ICDE 2003 conference, and the “Best Paper Award” at SIGMOD 2006 conference. Dr. Agichtein's research interests are in discovering and managing information in large unstructured datasets, with emphasis on the web and life sciences domains.
