CS&E alumnus Gaurav Pandey's dissertation was recently awarded an "honorable mention" at the 2011 ACM SIGKDD Dissertation Award (http://www.sigkdd.org/awards_dissertation.php). Gaurav's dissertation, titled "Data Mining Techniques for Enhancing Protein Function Prediction", proposes several novel data mining methods for addressing various challenging aspect of the important computational biology problem of protein function prediction. These methods utilize classification, clustering and association analysis methods for inferring protein function and functional modules from large-scale biological data sets, such as gene expression data and protein interaction networks.
Gaurav will receive a certificate of recognition at the KDD-2011 conference at San Diego in August.
