About me

I am a graduate student in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University. I am conducting research in medical image analysis in the VIA Group headed by Professor Reeves.

Research

My research interests lie in the realm of extracting useful information from medical images. My current projects address several facets of computer aided diagnosis of lung concer from CT images. One of my projects is developing algorithms to classify suspicious lung lesions as malignant or benign based on features extracted from a single CT scan. Another project deals with the measurement of lung cancer growth rate, with an emphasis on how it can be used to diagnose lung cancer. More information about my research can be found on the VIA page.

Interests

My primary interests are anime and technology, ranging from car audio to computers. Sadly, I don't have enough money to fund all my interests :(. You can find a list of anime that I have watched, am watching, or planning to watch at My Anime List.
