I am interested in developing novel methods for exploratory data analysis combining the capabilities of the human and the computer. My early research focused on development and analysis of constraint reasoning techniques, in particular in the area of answer set programming (ASP), including verification of equivalence, an intuitive and elegant module architecture for ASP, as well as study of proof systems and backdoors for ASP. I have also worked actively in the area of computational argumentation. More broadly, I am interested in combining my expertise in the areas of data analysis, subjective interestingness, and constraint reasoning, in developing efficient constraint reasoning and optimization methodology for solving data analysis problems in various application domains that take into account subjective knowledge of a particular user.
