Welcome to my personal homepage
I am a senior scientist at Spotify based in UK, working in machine learning and information retrieval.
Before joining Spotify I was at Amazon, working on products in core ML, supply chain optimization and Alexa shopping. Prior to that I had co-founded Inferentia together with Neil Lawrence, Zhenwen Dai and Javier Gonzalez. Our start-up was eventually acqui-hired by Amazon. I also worked as a research associate in machine learning and social robotics at Sheffield, and before that I pursued my PhD degree with topic Deep Gaussian Processes and Variational Propagation of Uncertainty, working with prof. Neil Lawrence.
My research areas of interest are: representation learning, transfer learning, uncertainty quantification. I am working with machine learning models from the Bayesian probabilistic or the deep learning domain, but I also investigate methods combining these areas.
I have worked in a variety of application areas, such as: multi-modal information fusion, decision making, information retrieval, AI-assisted data science.
