Look into my CV (July 2020). 

My LinkedIn for general trivia (and photo), it's also more colorful.

I am a Research Scientist with Preferred.AI research group at School of Information Systems (Singapore Management University). My advisor is Hady W. Lauw.

Research interests: text mining, natural language processing, machine learning, information extraction, graphical models, statistics, machine translation

It is always good to air our research to the interested parties, talks (with videos): 

• Learning User Preferences from Multi-Modal Data:
• Avito Data Science Meetup (Moscow, Russia)
• Computer Science Club (Saint Petersburg, Russia)
• SentiVec: Sentiment-Infused Word Embeddings @ DataScience SG (Singapore)
  
• Searching for the X-Factor: Exploring Corpus Subjectivity for Word Embeddings @ ACL (Melbourne, Australia)
  

Attaining high standards of reproducibility, I try to publish all the research and project-related prototypes:

• simple-ml, a bunch of online classifiers;
• extern, a serialization code generator for Java;
• tree-svm, tree kernels for SVM;
• plrmm, Plackett-Luce Regression Mixture Model;
• SentiVec, sentiment-infused word embeddings;
• Venom, a focused crawler for the deep web;
• CompareLDA, a topic model for document comparison;
• Neural Network Lab, a web-based interactive visual development environment for deep learning models;

Looking for publications? Google Scholar | DBLP (I find it is better at assigning the dates)
