About Me
I am a postdoctoral research assistant in the Department of Computer Science at Vanderbilt University, working under the guidance of Dr. Soheil Kolouri. I earned my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Delaware in 2022, during which I had the privilege of studying machine learning and statistics under Dr. Dominique Guillot.
My research primarily focuses on optimal transport computation and its applications in machine learning. During my Ph.D., I worked on measure concentration and information theory. More recently, I have been exploring the intersection of optimal transport with generative models, time series analysis, and other domains, with a particular interest in broader scientific applications, including bioinformatics.
