About

17+ years of research experience in AI/ML with 8+ years of leadership experience as Principal Investigator on federally funded projects (personal share: $4.4M+), building large multi-institutional and interdisciplinary teams across computer science, biology, ecology, and physics. My work has resulted in 160+ publications including papers at top-tier venues such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, KDD, and Nature Scientific Data, and I have delivered 40+ invited/keynote talks. My research has been recognized by several awards including the NSF CAREER award and the NAIRR Pilot award invited to speak at the White House. My research has pioneered the field of knowledge-guided machine learning (KGML) that incorporates domain knowledge and scientific laws in AI models to improve their generalization, interpretability, and efficiency.
