Data Science and Artificial Intelligence

The research group has over 25 years of experience in data science and artificial intelligence. They have made fundamental contributions in several areas, including content-based image retrieval, statistical modeling and machine learning based image tagging, image clustering, and statistial clustering of discrete distributions. They have also developed some earlier methods for big data driven weather prediction and disaster simulation.

The following is an archive of our publications in this area. They are in reverse chronical order.
