Welcome to my homepage!

My name is Qiang Zhu. I am a third year PhD student in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at University of California, Riverside. My advisor is Dr. Eamonn Keogh. Before joining UCR, I received my BS degree in Computer Science from Xiamen University, China.

My research interests include Data Mining, Machine Learning, Pattern Recognition and Information Retrieval. Currently I'm particularly interested in Similarity Search, Classification and Clustering of large-scale time series and shapes/images.  

My current research is being funded by the UCR Computational Anthropology Project.
