James Costello is at the University of Colorado, Denver. His current research: Today, we have the ability to measure the transcriptional activity of genes, identify mutations, and quantify the protein and metabolite content of our cells. All of these measurements can be made at the genome-level. These data present the potential to greatly improve our ability to characterize and treat disease; however, the rate of data production is far outpacing our ability to analyze, interpret, and ultimately build predictive tools in medicine. My lab takes a complementary dry and wet lab approach to close the gap between raw data and biological understanding. Our dry lab research focuses on developing and implementing computational tools that distill this large pool of genome-scale data into actionable hypothesis. Our wet lab research brings the computational modeling to the bench where we aim to characterize the genomic components that contribute to drug mode of action in cancer biology.

In H212 we began reviewing logic and wrote C++ for the material implication operator. We reviewed Syllogistic arguments, A,E,I,O, and created an algorithm that establishes whether an argument is valid or not. The algorithm iterates over the subject and predicates using the two premises to remove possible valuations. The conclusion is the iterated over the remaining truths--stopping if an invalid truth is found. I'll show this tomorrow.

CACR Talk Tuesday: http://cacr.iu.edu/sites/cacr.iu.edu/files/Shelat.pdf
SPEAKER:
abhi shelat Assistant Professor of Computer Science School of Engineering and Applied Science University of Virginia
TOPIC:
TITLE: The Price of Secure Collaboration
We frame the notion of secure collaboration as one about the ability for several parties p1,...,pn, who privately hold inputs x1,...,xn respectively, to jointly compute some function f(x1,...,xn).
In this talk, we discuss two aspects about the *price* of security. How much extra communication and computation are necessary? What extra assumptions about ``parties following the instructions" need to be made? We partially answer these questions by Presenting recent work that addresses these factors.
For the two-party case, we first present a recently designed system that achieves security against a malicious adversaries with the lowest communication and computation among all known solutions.
For the multi-party case, we introduce a new threshold fully homomorphic encryption scheme. This system allows a set of players to generate a public key pk for which each party has a share sk_i of the secret key. We also develop a proof of knowledge of plaintext and a collaborative decryption procedure for this system. By combining these methods, we construct the first secure multi-party computation protocol that allows evaluation of a function $f$ using communication that is independent of the circuit description of $f$.
The talk covers joint work with Chih-hao Shen, and with Steve Myers and Mona Sergi.

MS Advising Tip
One can use any course with a middle digit of 0/1 to fulfill the foundations requirements, e.g., B501 or B503. In some very rare cases, it would be possible to use the undergraduate versions of B501 and B503 but that would require special permission from the Director.Internship
The Unit for Natural Language Processing at the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI: http://www.deri.ie/) of the National University of Ireland, Galway invites applications for an internship in information mining. The successful applicant will have the following responsibilities:1. Research: topic clustering. We are currently extracting over 27,000 topics from scientific publications using NLP techniques, and need a reliable and efficient technique to cluster these so that they are more manageable in our expert-finding application’s user interface. This could be hierarchical topic clustering (super topics and sub topics in a tree structure) or some other suitable way determined by research.
2. Development: crawling. We are currently identifying further sources of both documents and metadata describing the documents, and need infrastructure to be setup and run to effectively crawl this information for subsequent information extraction. This will involve the setting up and administration of databases, metadata stores and open source crawling tools, as well as the development of some custom screen-scraping tools.
3. Any other tasks required of them.
The work will be carried out in the context of an ongoing industrial research collaboration, and internally with DERI's Unit for Information Mining and Retrieval. Internships are aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students, with a duration of 3-12 months and will be remunerated at EUR 1000 per month (EUR 1200 for postgraduate students).
DERI is a leading research institute in semantic technologies that offers a stimulating, dynamic and multi-cultural research environment, excellent ties to research-groups worldwide, close collaboration with industrial partners and up-to-date infrastructure and resources. The DERI Unit for Natural Language Processing (http://nlp.deri.ie/) has a focus on applied research in ontology-based information extraction, semantic-level text mining and the use of linguistic and semantic methods in information retrieval. The unit develops methods for the efficient application of NLP tools in combination with domain semantics as specified in ontologies, thesauri and other knowledge organisation systems for relevant use cases. Research is carried out in close cooperation with the DERI Unit for Information Mining and Retrieval (http://uimr.deri.ie/) in the context of the DERI Semantic Information Mining stream (http://sim.deri.ie/) as well as with other DERI units.

During my Professor's Perspective, I wrote down some thoughts about Some Suggestions
Here's one of the requests:
Sent: Sunday, July 18, 2010 6:42 PM To: Dalkilic, Mehmet M. Subject:
Dr. Dalkilic, I was at the July 15th & 16th orientation and did not recieve one the the papers that you were passing around the crowd. Could you please send me the PDF file if it is not too much trouble. I would also like to thank you for the Border's Books gift card and for making Orientation enjoyable.
Thank you, Lucas H.
Met with Kalpana
Another nice email:
Hello, my name is Nathan K* and I attended the orientation meeting you gave in the auditorium a couple days ago. I accepted the offer for the gift card and am emailing you concerning what book I should get. My friend and coworkers pursuaded me into starting Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac a few weeks ago and I've grown to really enjoy the adventurous stories and the views he has of life and religion. I'm almost finished reading it and was planning on reading either more Kerouac or start branching out to books by other poets that he knew and was friends with. I'm hoping that you encouage this choice, or if you have any other suggestions, I'm open to those as well. I'd also like to thank you for the gift card. It's extremely generous of you and I'm hoping to continue reading and talking about books with you! Sincerly, Nathan K

I met with Billy about his internships--I suggested the difficult one. We'll see what he does. He did nominate me for Distinguished Professor in Teaching--I was very touched, but to my chagrin, a dossier is required. Having completed work on P & T (maybe a dozen) and the dossier being required in a few days, it was suggested that I try again next year. I cannot decide if it's [application process] like a water slide or a Sisyphean exercise.
I met with Bobak and Justen several times
I picked up Jim at the airport and dropped him off around 5:00am. He wanted to leave at 4:00am, because his flight was at 11:00am.
P & T writing
My sister was kind enough to make arrangements for our family for Thanks-giving, but I was encouraged not to spend 9 hours on the road for a meal at 11:30am. I miss seeing them, but Kan has no keeper.
I took my entire H101 class to Mozart's Die Zauberflöte. We were written up by the IDS by Lindsey Ferguson . I recommend Peter Branscombe's W.A. Mozort Die Zauberöte.
If this link is stale, I found it at textbookx.com The site has a synopsis of the book:
Few operas have had more written about them than Die Zauberflote, yet few are as often exposed to misguided comment--or to idiosyncratic productions. This book sets out to provide a straightforward account of Mozart's most beloved opera, exposing the half-truths and legends that have proliferated since its first production in 1791. The sources for the opera are discussed, and there are chapters devoted to composition of the work, the authorship and qualities of the libretto, the music (analyzed by Erik Smith), early productions and performance history, and the practical problems of directing a production (examined by Anthony Besch). The book contains illustrations, a synopsis, bibliography, and discography and will be of interest to music students, scholars and operagoers.

Chris Paulson, a student from some time ago, sent me this nice message:
Hey Dr. D, Long time no talk to, this is Chris Paulson(from class of '04) and I got an informatics booklet in the mail today and it made me think of you and I wanted to shoot you an email to see how things are going? I follow the website some and also get updates from Matt Hottell on facebook and its amazing how much things are growing around there! I would love to catch up with you and I will be down at IU sometime in the next couple months visiting my sister(shes a sophmore) and am hoping to catch a basketball game, so I will let you know when I'm gonna be there and hopefully we could meet up for a bit if you have the time. I am living in Wisconsin these days, married(no kids) and I work for GlaxoSmithKline in the Vaccines division selling to hospitals/clinics covering SW Wisconsin. Well I hope things are going well for you as I'm sure they are, and I hope to catch up with you soon. Chris
Jim explained "metrotextual" to me. Evidently, it's OK to end one's text with 'xoxox...' (how ever many are deserved, etc.) without exposing oneself--you can finish this this though.
I'm stealing this from Chelsea Lately, but when she remarked, "Do you remember when 'twilight' just meant dark outside?" I was thinking some hollywooden tax on usurping words.
Another study session of KAN for textbooks
I guess the lesson for the day is "postponed prepositions." This grammatical form is only for informal writing (that's what's believed). For example, "The paper that I was asking about is late." In this case, 'about' is the preposition, and its object is 'that'. Which is correct? "I concur (with or in or to) that proposal? The correct answer is 'in'. Prepositions are pesky elements! I've been working on my dad (whose mother tongue is not English) to rid himself of superfluous prepositions. "Where are you at?" (remove the 'at'); "Is the game over with?" (remove the 'with'). I was going to end with a passage from Voltaire's Philosphical Dictionary. Evidently I can download it for free on my unused KindleDX. Let's see how it goes. - (edited November 29, 2009, 2:50 PM)

I must show Kan's disdain for my having to do work at home--the laptop is at the left.
I will eventually show what he does inbetween these misleading cute, passive poses. The last thing to say is that I must be a luddite.
The last image is of my television informing me I should pay my bill...my television...What happens when the house is eventually tethered electronically, and your electric toothbrush flashes, "Pay the TV--and buy more Crest?" I'm glad I've kept the clock I had in high school--no electronic soul or enough silicon to give messages other than static or an annoying beep to rouse me from sleep. I know it's probably paranoid, but I could swear the television was trying to turn-off the other electrical devices in the room until I looked at it squarely and performed what is asked.
