Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Ottawa

June 2012 - June 2013 (1 year 1 month)

UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA

Postdoctoral Researcher, 2012/6-2013/06

• As a sole researcher, my research task was to develop a new algorithm for uniformly and unbiased sampling

online social networks instead of traditional methods such as Random Walk (RW) and Metropolis-Hastings

Random Walk (MHRW) in applied statistics; the new algorithm overcomes the drawbacks such as a slow

mixing time and biased results in traditional methods.

• The research was supported by NSERC Engage Grant and SME4SME Grant; I was responsible of unfolding

successful development which eventually leads to a significant research result; thus I developed a novel

algorithm which applies advanced Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods such as coupling techniques for

sampling large graph networks;

• I achieved the goal by developing a new coupling technique called conditional independent coupling for

perfect sampling and extending traditional coupling algorithms; conducted overall experiments by sampling

online social networks such as Twitter and small social networks; results show that the algorithm is extremely

efficient to produces unbiased samples.

• The algorithm was implemented using Ruby, Twitter API, DataMapper, SQLite, MySQL, PostGres;

running environment: Unix/Linux, Amazon EC2; designed a web application using Rails with MVC pattern

for demonstration;

• Performed social network analysis such as degree distribution, Centrality, Clustering coefficient, community

detection. Research results has been published in IEEE ICDM International Workshop on Data Mining in

Network, 2012.

• Obtained a US patent for the initial research result as the original inventor, and the product was transferred

to the local company.
