I am an Assistant Professor of Information and Computer Science at the University of Michigan. I work on temporal-informatics which is the study of the change of information—and our consumption of it—over time. This is primarily at Internet scales and it gives me an excuse to work on lots of different things I like... text and log mining, visualizations, social network analysis, etc.

Before grad school I was a researcher at HP Labs' Information Dynamics Group and at Xerox PARC. (complete CV). I can be reached at eytanadar-at-yahoo-dot-com.

Among other things, I am associated with the MISC and MIDAS groups (HCI and data mining, respectively). I am one of the founders of ICWSM and more recently Jaime Teevan and I organized WSDM 2012 which took place in Seattle.

I'm working with some awesome students including: Sam Carton, Jessica Hullman, Gierad Laput, Avishay Livne, Allie Mazzia, and Bhavana Radhakrishnan.

I have a blog (which I post to pretty infrequently).

Some demos/videos of other recent work for you to try:

» PixelTone video
» TappCloud video
» Zoetrope video
» GUESS, the Graph Exploration System
» Other videos on YouTube (click on "watch in high quality" for a better view).
