Dr. Andrew Karem, Assistant Professor of Computer Science
Dr. Andrew Karem joined Bellarmine University's Computer Science faculty in Fall 2024. He earned his Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Louisville in 2019. For his dissertation research, he investigated the use of multiple instance learning to enhance clustering of high-dimension data under the supervision of Dr. Hichem Frigui, with an applied focus on algorithms to detect and identify buried explosive objects (ex: landmines) using subterranean imaging data.
Dr. Karem’s teaching interests include, but are not limited to, courses dealing with computer science fundamentals, databases, data structures, programming languages, quantitative computing, and data science. His research and publication interests center around data science and machine learning, and he collaborates regularly with the University of Louisville Psychology Department’s EAT Laboratory (Director Dr. Cheri Levinson, Assistant Director Dr. Christina Ralph-Nearman) on research related to diagnosis and treatment of eating disorders.
