About

I am a Computer Science[s] PhD student at University of Wisconsin - Madison.

I work in computational biology, advised by Tony Gitter.

Some topics that interest me:

• Machine learning on non-i.i.d. data: sequences, hierarchies, networks.
• Machine learning on high-dimensional data with few samples.
• Machine learning for systems biology applications.
• Probabilistic programming.
• Bayesian inference methods.

At the beginning of grad school, I spent some time in programming languages research.

I studied math and physics as an undergrad. This background has its benefits, though I’ve done a lot of catching up in CS.

I hope this blog evolves into something useful and interesting.
