Research

My PhD research applies techniques from statistical machine learning (particularly hierarchical Bayesian models and nonparametric extensions) to create automated methods for extracting meaningful information from multimedia. I study theoretical methods for efficient inference in graphical models (e.g. MCMC sampling, variational methods) as well as practical ways to apply these methods to real-world data such as video clips or text documents.

I'm part of the Learning, Inference, and Vision group here at Brown advised by Prof. Erik Sudderth.
