معرفی
Alexander Kotov is an Associate Professor in Computer Science at Wayne State University's James and Patricia Anderson College of Engineering. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2011) and specializes in large-scale textual information analysis, particularly information retrieval, natural language processing, and health informatics.
His research develops neural architectures for conversational entity retrieval (2024), clinical outcome prediction (2024), and behavioral intervention analysis. Key themes include knowledge graph integration, multimodal retrieval systems, and computational methods for health communication analysis, with applications in weight loss counseling and precision medicine.
Research consistently bridges NLP/IR techniques with healthcare applications, exploring conversational AI for clinical support, knowledge graph retrieval, and behavioral pattern mining in therapeutic contexts. Recent projects include NIH-supported work on weight management chatbots.
