I (Brian) just received my PhD in Computer Science from Rutgers University, on "Models and Algorithms for Event-Driven Networks." My research interests are rooted in algorithms, combinatorics, graph theory, and data mining, and my projects have explored topics such as information diffusion, anomaly detection in communication networks, security and privacy in data sharing, and game-theoretic models for collaborative behavior. I'm particularly interested in developing new stochastic models and algorithms to discover latent correlations and influence in large networks. I'm always happy to talk about my work, discuss related ideas, or hear about new application domains, so if this sounds interesting to you, please find me on Facebook or email me at bthompso8784@gmail.com and say hi! website
