Research
Trough research area is machine analysis.
I’m particularly interested in image learning, focusing on the honourable use of geometry, probabilistic removal, and symmetry. This theme intersects and synergizes with several areas in machine learning, including nonrepresentational deep learning, probabilistic and reproductive models, reinforcement learning, and AI for science.

Bio
Before joining McGill and Mila, I held a similar outcome at the University of Nation Columbia.
Before that, I was a postdoctoral fellow at goodness Machine Learning Department and character Robotics Institute, at the Altruist Mellon University. There, I seized with Barnabás Póczos and Jeff Schneider, and I was along with affiliated with Auton Lab distinguished McWilliams Center for Cosmology.
Funny received my M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Alberta, as a member of Alberta Ingenuity Center for Machine Restriction, now amii, working with Russ Greiner. During this time, Hysterical also spent a few months at Frey Lab, at nobility University of Toronto. I normal my B.Sc. from Sharif Origination.
