Research

Research Overview

My research interests are mainly (application-driven) machine learning and computational statistics. My research mission is to understand patterns and phenomena observed in real-world data by devising probabilistic and statistical machine learning methodologies.

Current Research

Currently I am working on the following application domains and inferential machine learning algorithms:
  1. Healthcare data
  2. Energy Efficiency
  3. Spectroscopy data
  4. Data Engineering
  5. Foundation Models
  6. Self-Supervised Learning
  7. Causal Inference
  8. Markov chain Monte Carlo

Supervision

I have been supervising a number of PhD students.
