Biography

Dr. Mehmed Kantardzic received his PhD in Computer Science in 1980, MS in Computer Science in 1976, and BS in Electrical Engineering in1972, all from the University of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, He served as an Assistant, and Associate Professor at the University of Sarajevo, and later as Associate and since 2004 Full Professor the University of Louisville. Currently, he is the Director of the Data Mining Lab as well as the Director of CECS Graduate Studies at the CECS Department. His research focuses on data mining & knowledge discovery, machine learning, soft computing, click fraud detection and prevention, concept drift in streaming data, and distributed intelligent systems. Dr. Kantardzic is the author of six books including the textbook: "Data Mining: Concepts, Models, Methods, and Algorithms" (John Wiley, second edition, 2011) which is accepted for data mining courses at more than hundred universities in USA and abroad. He is the author of over 40 peer-reviewed journal publications, 20 book chapters, and over 200 reviewed articles in the proceedings of international conferences. His recent research projects are supported by NSF, KSTC, US Treasury Department, U.S. Army, and NASA. Dr. Kantardzic was selected as Fulbright Specialist in Information Technology in 2012. Among his accolades are a University of Louisville Distinguished Service Award (2008), numerous Outstanding, Best, and Honorable Mention Awards for his research papers (2012, -09, -07, -05, -03), and several Faculty Favorite and Distinguished Teaching Awards (2012, -11, -07, -04). Dr. Kantardzic has served on the Editorial Boards for several international journals, and he is currently Associate Editor for WIREs Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Journal. He was a reviewer and panel member for NSF, the Austrian Science Foundation (ASF), the Canadian Research Council (NSERC), Croatian UKF Fund, RAND NPRP and Norman Hackerman Advanced Research Program (NHARP). He was invited keynote speaker at conferences in USA, Mexico, Bosnia, Egypt, Japan, and Algeria, and his service activities include a General Chair or Program Chair assignments for several international conferences including HICSS'16, INSS-BigData'15, IEEE ICAT'13, ICMLA'09, IEEE ISSPIT'08, and WSIPT'07
