Dear faculty and students,

We look forward to seeing you next Tuesday, Feb 06, at noon in *NSH 
1507* for AI Seminar sponsored by Apple. To learn more about the seminar 
series, please visit the AI Seminar webpage 
<http://www.cs.cmu.edu/%7Eaiseminar/>.

On Tuesday, Reihaneh Rabbany <http://www.reirab.com/>will give the 
following talk:

Title: Mining Connections

Abstract:

Connections are ubiquitous in different domains; from collaborations and 
associations between people, to proteins and genes interacting to carry 
out a biological function. To study the structure and dynamics of the 
interconnected world around us, we need models and algorithms that 
integrate three principal elements: connection, content, and time. In 
order to achieve these integrated models, I will discuss bringing 
machine learning, network science, and data mining together. As a step 
toward this direction, I talk about narrowing the gap between clustering 
(based on content), community detection (using connections), and 
extending them to the dynamic settings (time). Throughout the talk, I 
will give examples from the broader impacts of this research in 
computational social science, combating online human trafficking, and 
educational data mining.
