Research Interests
Inter-disciplinary research between data mining, software engineering and computer systems.- I have been working on statistical debugging and
automated program failure triage,
which diagnose program problems automatically.
- Currently, I am looking into web search and sponsored Ad quality problem from a debugging point of view.
