Hi, Thanks for the reply. Now I have a hard time narrowing down to a particular area of research, having gone through many of the links you gave me. I am thinking of going the direction of data mining/AI but I can't really say exactly why. Please help me with a bit more insight into the most important fields and maybe some reasons.
Thanks a lot.
