I am working on statistics in high dimensions and its applications in Machine Learning. In particular, I am interested in variable selection, entropy and Mutual Information estimation and Stability Selection. I am working on the MASH project, a European research project about collaborative design of complex learning systems (http://mash-project.eu/).
