Roni Khardon Professor Department of Computer Science Indiana University, Bloomington
	Research Interests and Projects: My interests are in the areas of Machine Learning and Data Mining, Artificial Intelligence, and Efficient Algorithms and my research explores theoretical questions, empirical questions, and applications. Most recently my work has focused on problems in two broad areas: Theory, Algorithms and Applications of Graphical models and Stochastic Planning (aka Reinforcement Learning) and its Relation to Probabilistic Inference.
