My current research interests lie broadly in Bioinformatics and in Multimedia Systems. In Bioinformatics, the ultimate goal of my research is to develop algorithms and computation as methodologies that can be used in in conjunction with traditional techniques from Biology, Chemistry, and Physics to understand the biochemical nature of life. I am currently working in molecular structural analysis and querying, structure-property modeling, and algorithms for analysis and mining of bio-chemical information.

In Multimedia, I am especially interested in developing theory and techniques that allow unified modeling, processing, querying, and interactions with multiple-media. The ability to recognize correlations between different media is essential to a range of emerging sensor and media rich applications such as search, information analysis and assimilation, and pervasive computing. My research group is conducting investigations in various aspects of this problem including development of unified data models for multimedia, media processing and analysis, query paradigms for multimedia, and next-generation user interfaces for interacting with multimedia data.

My earlier research was in Computer Vision and Vision-Based Robotics. These areas continue to influence my research methodology. More information about my research is available at the web-site of my research group
