Research interests

During my undergraduate studies in Informatics I was delighted to explore the essentials of information theory and theoretical computer science (algorithmic and Kolmogorov complexity, computability, asymptotic theory). Later, as postgraduate student I focused on Bayesian methods and applications. My fields of interest lie in Bayesian high-dimensional problems, mixture models, clustering and Machine Learning.
