Approximation
Represent complex relationships with models that are expressive yet computationally efficient.
Research
I work across estimation, approximation, optimization, and information theory. The goal is not only to design learning systems that perform well, but also to understand when and why they do.
Selected work
Four representative projects that shape my research agenda.
Tracking changing probability distributions in real time.
Choosing random features for the task, not just the kernel.
Turning surprise into a signal of epistemic growth.
Explaining when and how measure consistency regularization helps data imputation.
Research lens
Represent complex relationships with models that are expressive yet computationally efficient.
Learn reliably from streaming, multimodal, non-IID, or partially observed data.
Turn theory into stable training procedures and adaptive decision policies.
