Research projects
•
2003 –2007: Dissertation Research
Inference of Node and Edge Replacement Graph Grammars.
This work involved mining patterns in relational data represented as a graph, which falls within the
established fields of multi-relational data mining and graph-based data mining. Entities are
represented as nodes and the relationships between them as edges. We studied an approach to
learning node replacement graph grammars. We extended the search for frequent subgraphs by
checking for overlap among the instances of the subgraphs in the input graph. We can infer a
hierarchy of productions by compressing portions of a graph described by a production and then
infer new productions on the compressed graph. Supervisor: Lawrence Holder
•
2002- December 2003: Masters Thesis Project in Computer Science and Engineering
Algorithm and Experiments in Testing Planar Graphs for Isomorphism. We studied the performance
improvements to graph-based data mining when graphs are restricted to planar graphs. We
developed and implemented an algorithm for isomorphism testing of planar graphs. The algorithm
was based on the decomposition of a graph into biconnected components and further into SPQR
trees. The goal was to improve the performance of graph-based data mining systems by taking
advantage of fast graph matching for constrained graph topologies. This research was sponsored by
the Air Force Rome Laboratory under contract F30602-01-2-0570. Supervisor: Lawrence Holder
•
1998 – 1999
Industrial Active Power Filters Design. University of Zielona Gora, Poland. Project funded by the
Committee of Science Research of Poland. (KBN) 8T10A 0505497C/3339. We built the prototype
of a power electronics device to improve power quality. I assisted in developing a control algorithm,
its simulation, and its implementation on a digital signal processor. Supervisor: Ryszard Strzelecki
•
1998 – 1999
The New Universal Topologies of Series-Parallel Active Power Filters- Power Conditioners. It was
a project related to my masters thesis. The University of Zielona Gora, Poland, awarded financial
support to buy digital signal processors and power electronic modules. I did a mathematical analysis
and a simulation of power flow and quality control of power electronics devices. Supervisor:
Ryszard Strzelecki
