Soroush Omidvartehrani
Ph.D. candidate in Computing Science at the University of Alberta, researching example-driven data wrangling. Specifically, I study how to automate wrangling tasks such as data transformation and missing data imputation using a zoom-in/zoom-out approach: zooming in on a few informative examples that hold enough information for the task, and zooming out to generalize and apply the learned patterns across the data.
