I am a PhD student in the CVPR group at University of York. I am working on a bioinformatics project. The research topic of my PhD work is Understanding RNA, supervised by Prof Richard C. Wilson. The aims of my research are - Devise a new Graph Kernel method of measuring the similarity of the RNA molecule groups using information gathered from their primary structure, topology (2D structure), and geometry of the shape (3D structure). - Use this measure to determine the relative importance of the three sources of information. - Exploit machine learning classifiers and a database (https://www.cs.york.ac.uk/cvpr/post/rna/) of known classifications to categorize unknown RNA molecules.
My research interests are Graph Kernels, Machine Learning, and bioinformatics.
