Research

Currently I am at Google.

Data Mining

A major research interest is data mining and I run a meeting group here at Stanford. For more information take a look at the MIDAS home page or see the datamine maling list achive. Here are some recent publications:

World Wide Web

Research on the Web seems to be fashionable these days and I guess I'm no exception. Recently I have been working on the Google search engine with Larry Page.

The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine

by Lawrence Page and Sergey Brin.

Submitted to WWW7.

PageRank, an Eigenvector based Ranking Approach for Hypertext

by Lawrence Page and Sergey Brin.

This is work in progress which we intend to submit to SIGIR '98.

GNAT's

This project involved indexing multidimensional data for near-neighbor searches. The kind of applications I envision are identity comparisons, information finding, molecular biology, ...

Near Neighbor Search in Large Metric Spaces

by Sergey Brin.

We introduce a new data structure for near-neighbor searches which is well suited for high-dimensional or "large" metric spaces.

COPS

I worked on a project with Hector Garcia-Molina involving automated detection of copyright violations. Together with James Davis (another Ph.D. student here), we developed COPS , the COpyright Protection System.

Copy Detection Mechanisms for Digital Documents

by Sergey Brin, James Davis, and Hector Garcia-Molina.

We develop and study a system for detecting copies of documents in large collections which is useful for finding copyright violations.

Miscellaneous

My photo collection.

I have found existing tools to convert LaTeX into HTML a little frustrating so I wrote my own simple tool which relies mostly on a LaTeX style file.



Friends and Family

My Mom and Dad are on the WWW. My brother's elementary school is also online.
