Education | ETH, Zurich, Switzerland - December, 2003 - 2007
I was working as an external PhD student at IBM Zurich Research Laboratory in the mobile applications group. My thesis is on a context-aware recommendation system called UbiMate. It is a mobile city guide that utilizes the collective power of the mobile user community to generate customized context-aware recommendations. It looks at what like-minded user have done in the past under similar context (e.g., location, weather) to predict what the current user may like to do.
