Theodoros (Theo) Rekatsinas
I am an assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I am a member of the UW-Madison Database Group.
Before that I was a Postdoc at Stanford with Chris Ré. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Maryland. My advisors were Amol Deshpande and Lise Getoor.
My research interests lie in the field of databases, with a focus on data integration and uncertain data management. During the past years, I have been working on the problem of data source selection, which studies how one can identify valuable data sources for integration.
