Boris Mirkin holds a PhD in Computer Science (Mathematics) and DSc in Systems Analysis (Technology) degrees from Russian Universities. Between 1991-2010, he had long-term visiting appointments in France, Germany, USA, and a teaching appointment as a Professor of Computer Science at Birkbeck University of London, UK (2000-2010). He develops methods for clustering and interpretation of complex data within the "data recovery" perspective. Currently these approaches are being extended to automation of text analysis problems including the development and use of hierarchical ontologies. He has published a hundred refereed papers and a dozen books, of which the latest are: "Clustering: A Data Recovery Approach" (Chapman and Hall/CRC Press, 2012) and a textbook "Introductory Data Analysis" (In Russian, URAIT Publishers, Moscow, 2016).
