Current Research Interests

My current research interests are
  • Information theory and coding theory
  • Distributed and parallel computation architecture and algorithms
  • Statistical inference and graphical models
And you can watch the video on the right on what we do, how we do it, and
why SiA and RLE is a great place to do research!
