I am a Senior Research Scientist in NRC Systems Research, Palo Alto, focusing on algorithmics, aggregation and analysis of the context, content and community information in large-scale dynamic networks. I am also an Adjunct Professor in Computer Science (University of Helsinki).
Before joining Nokia, I was working for HIIT BRU and FDK on various topics, including computational biology (metabolic networks, haplotype analysis, cryo-electron microscopy) data mining (pattern discovery and foundations of data mining, privacy in data analysis, inductive databases, probabilistic logic learning) and combinatorial optimization.
I defended my PhD Thesis on summarization techniques for pattern collections in data mining in May 2005. For my MSc thesis I studied the computational complexity of determining relative orientations of cryo-electron microscope images of macromolecular complexes and implemented a software system for experimenting with different heuristic search techniques.
Some of my papers are available online.
