CS Talk

Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Prof. Xifeng Yan , UCSB
Talk Title: Graph Pattern Mining
Abstract: Graphs and networks are ubiquitous, encoding complex relationships ranging from chemical bonds to social interactions. Hidden in these networks are the answers to many important questions in biology, business, and sociology. We are developing a general graph information system to address the needs of searching and mining complex networks in these domains. In this talk, I will introduce the basic concept of graph pattern mining, its algorithms and applications including graph classification and graph search. I will also briefly discuss my recent work on business workflow analysis, malware detection, etc.
Biography: Xifeng Yan is an assistant professor at the University of California at Santa Barbara, and holds the Venkatesh Narayanamurti Chair in Computer Science. He received his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2006. He was a research staff member at the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center between 2006 and 2008. He has been working on modeling, managing, and mining large-scale graphs in bioinformatics, social networks, the Web, and computer systems. His works were extensively referenced, with over 3,000 citations per Google Scholar. For more information, please visit www.cs.ucsb.edu/~xyan.

Join us for a festival of music and films presented in conjunction with the exhibit Yousuf Karsh: Regarding Heroes, on display at the USC Fisher Museum of Art from August 19 through November 23. The exhibition celebrates the centenary of the birth of Yousuf Karsh, one of our greatest portrait photographers, whose portrait subjects include such political, social and literary figures as Nelson Mandela, Audrey Hepburn, Winston Churchill and Robert Frost.
Pianist Victoria Kirsch will be joined by fellow USC alumni soprano Shana Blake and bass-baritone Cedric Berry for a program of vocal and instrumental music inspired by the portrait subjects featured in the exhibition. Actor Jamieson K. Price will read excerpts from Karsh's reminiscences of his photography sessions, revealing fascinating and sometimes surprising details about the iconic figures he photographed.
