Ricky J. Sethi is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science^[1] at Fitchburg State University and the Director of Research^[2] for The Madsci Network.^[3] He was appointed as a National Science Foundation (NSF) Computing Innovation Fellow^[4]^[5] by the Computing Community Consortium and the Computing Research Association. He has contributed significantly in the fields of machine learning, computer vision, social computing, and science education/eLearning.

He has authored or co-authored more than 30 peer-reviewed papers and book chapters^[6] and made numerous presentations on his research. He has taught various courses in computer science, physics, and general science.^[7]^[8] He was also the Lead Integration Scientist for the WASA ^[9]^[10] project, supported by the NSF and ONR, as well as part of the UCR DARPA VIRAT program. He was the Local Organizing Chair for the ACM International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces,^[11]^[12] a member of IEEE,^[13] and the Associate Editor-in-Chief for the Journal of Postdoctoral Research.^[14] His work has been featured on The Huffington Post,^[15] The Conversation, and The Sentinel.^[16]

Education

Sethi received his B.S. in physics and neurobiology from the University of California, Berkeley, his M.S. in physics/information systems from the University of Southern California, and his Ph.D. in artificial intelligence from the University of California, Riverside. He was a postdoc at the University of California, Riverside and was later appointed a Computing Innovation Fellow at UCLA/USC Information Sciences Institute.
