Benjamin Bloem-Reddy

Bayesian nonparametrics, probabilistic modeling and inference

I am a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Statistical Machine Learning. Previously, I completed my Ph.D. in Statistics at Columbia University, where I was advised by Peter Orbanz. My research focuses on probabilistic and statistical analysis of networks and other discrete data like partitions and permutations. I am generally interested in all aspects of machine learning, both theoretical and applied.
