Research

I am broadly interested in developing novel statistical theory that sheds light on important problems. In particular, I have recently been focusing on

• Kernel methods
• Causal inference
• Sequential statistics

Related topics such as general nonparametric statistics, bandits, reinforcement learning, NTK or distributional metrics (f-divergences, IPMs, Wasserstein distances) will catch my eye!
