I’m Chris, an internal medicine resident at the University of Pennsylvania.

My research interests revolve around the practical and theoretical uses of machine learning within medicine.

The incremental design of a machine learning framework for medical records processing

This work presents the development and evaluation of coordn8, a web-based application that streamlines fax processing in outpatient clinics using a “human-in-the-loop” machine learning framework. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the platform at reducing fax processing time and producing accurate machine learning inferences across the tasks of patient identification, document classification, spam classification, and duplicate document detection.

Identifying the transcriptomic signatures of mutational heterogeneity in GBM using single cell genomics

Glioblastoma (GBM), the deadliest primary brain tumor, exhibits high therapeutic resistance and recurrence due to its genomic and cellular diversity. This study utilizes single-cell genomic analyses to correlate somatic mutations with transcriptomic profiles within tumor tissues. We established a concise three-stage pipeline: variant calling, machine learning (ML) classification, and biological pathway analysis.

DeepConf: Automating data center network topologies management with machine learning

In this vision paper, we argue that many data center networking techniques, e.g., routing, topology augmentation, energy savings, with diverse goals share design and architectural similarities. We present a framework for developing general intermediate representations of network topologies using deep learning that is amenable to solving a large class of data center problems.

Darnet: A deep learning solution for distracted driving detection

Distracted driving is known to be the leading cause of motor vehicle accidents. In this work, we present a unified data collection and analysis framework, DarNet, capable of detecting and classifying distracted driving behavior using a multimodal CNN+RNN framework.
