Biography
Shantanu Jain is an associate research scientist in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University. He is interested in the field of statistical modeling and machine learning. Jain’s research focuses on developing semi-supervised methods under data constraints for which standard approaches lead to biased estimates.
Prior to joining Northeastern in 2018, Jain received his doctorate and master’s in computer science from Indiana University. His recent work has addressed issues in binary classification and its evaluation that arise due to the absence of labeled examples from one of the classes (positive-unlabeled learning) and incorrectly labeled examples and bias in the labeled examples. Jain’s research has been applied to many bioinformatics problems and mass spectrometry data, as well as published in journals including AAAI, Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing and the Scandinavian Journal of Statistics. Outside of research, Jain enjoys solving puzzles, singing and dancing.
