Aram Galstyan is a Project Leader at the Information Sciences Institute and a Research Assistant Professor in the USC Viterbi School of Engineering's Computer Science Department. His current research focuses on statistical mechanics based approaches to inference and learning, statistical models of complex networks, and social network analysis. His other research interests include mathematical modeling of complex adaptive systems, emergent coordination in robotic swarms, and learning and adaptation in multi-agent systems.
