My current research focuses on the business intelligence and medical/nursing informatics applications of text summarization and information extraction systems. The goal is to develop useful summarization and IE applications and to better understand the possibilities and challenges in developing and using these applications, while in the process to further improve the underlying methods and techniques. I am especially interested in trends and network discovery and following-up through the analysis and summarization of economic and business reports and news, daily nursing narratives, and AML Suspicious Activity Reports.
