My general research interests are Pattern Recognition and Digital Signal Processing. I am also interested in general Computer Engineering topics.

My Master's research deals with sensor network and is part of the SensIT project in UW-Madison. Two of our goals are to develop algorithms for reliable fusion of data among sensors and for vehicle classification. We have developed algorithms for vehicle classification based on acoustic and seismic sensors, and have used the gathered data and results to develop fusion algorithms to increase the success rate for overall classification in the sensor network.
