Information retrieval, web mining and search engines are the main topics of my research interests

In particular, the projects I was involved in concerned: link-based ranking algorithms, automatic web spam detection, web crawling, computational advertising, query log analysis, web graph analysis, text classification and reference matching in highly inflective languages. Here is the list of my publications



We won the 1st prize on the ECML/PKDD 2007 Discovery Challenge together with K.Dembczyński and W.Kotłowski of Poznan University of Technology, CS dept. The task (pdf) concerned web user behaviour prediction (track 1).
