Brown is an Assistant Professor in the College of Computing and Digital Media (CDM) at DePaul University. He earned his B.A. from Cornell University in Computer Science and Math, and his Ph.D. and M.S. in Computer Science from Tufts University. His teaching is focused in the Data Science Program, where he teaches data visualization and machine learning. His research revolves around integrating the two disciplines together for more effective data analytics. He directs the Laboratory for Interactive Human-Computer Analytics (LIHCA; lihca.io), which develops new interactive machine learning technology to address the needs of collaborators in a variety of fields including biomedical, biotechnology and journalism.<\/p>\n\t<h3>\n\t\t\t\t\tRESEARCH\n\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\tMy research is interdisciplinary, combining visualization and machine learning to create new ways for humans to use computers for analytics. Rather than create interfaces for directly controlling machine learning tools, I focus on implicit model-steering technology. We create an interface designed to support the human&#8217;sinteractive data needs, then use machine learning behind the scenes to support them. We aim to amplify the human effort, using their insight to drive the analytics process without requiring they engage with algorithms and parameter tuning. Note that in my research area, professors are expected to mentor students to build and evaluate techniques and systems, as well as write papers (as opposed to working directly on the software and writing). This type of work requires multiple skillsets: conceiving of a mechanism that connects human and machine, designing the interactions (possibly with a collaborator), figuring out how to adapt machine learning to address the user need, implementing the machine learning, running machine learning experiments to test<br \/>\nvalidity, running a server and implementing a back-end to run machine learning behind the scenes, and building the front-end interface itself with custom visual components. Students who can do this are difficult to find, however, I have published consistently and push for high quality venues. I am having an impact in my field, demonstrated by my over 600 citations and my current position on the Organizing Committee for the top conference in my field, IEEE VIS (CORE A).\n\t<h3>\n\t\t\t\t\tPUBLICATIONS BY YEAR\n\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t<h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t2021\n\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t<strong>Jiahao Deng<\/strong><strong>,<\/strong> Eli T.
