Professor Patrick Rebeschini
Professor of Statistics and Machine Learning
Biographical Sketch
I have a Ph.D. in Operations Research and Financial Engineering from Princeton University (2014). After that, I joined the Yale Institute for Network Science at Yale University. I worked two years as a Postdoctoral Associate in the Electrical Engineering Department, and one year as an Associate Research Scientist with a joint appointment as a Lecturer in the Computer Science Department at Yale.
Research Interests
My research interests lie at the intersection of probability, statistics, and computer science. I am interested in the investigation of fundamental principles in high-dimensional probability, statistics and optimisation to design computationally efficient and statistically optimal algorithms for machine learning.
