Data Mining Lab.

Welcome to Data Mining Laboratory in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Seoul National University. Our research interests lie in big data mining which aims to find models, algorithms, and systems for scalable data analysis with applications on knowledge discovery, learning, and anomaly detection. Specifically, we focus on the following research topics: deep learning & scalable machine learning, recommendation system, big graph mining, big tensor mining, online stream mining, and anomaly/fraud detection.
