Eytan Adar

Projects

I am a graduate student at the University of Washington (and can be reached at eytanadar-at-yahoo-dot-com). I work on temporal-informatics which is study of the change of information—and our consumption of it—over time. This is primarily at Internet scales and it gives me an excuse to work on lots of different things I like... text mining, visualizations, social network analysis, etc.

I am funded by a NSF Fellowship, an ARCS Fellowship, and am a PI on an Accelerating Search Award from Microsoft.

I was previously a researcher with the HP Labs Information Dynamics Group (before that I was at Xerox PARC).

Some demos of other recent work for you to try:
