Abdullah Alomar Abstract: The ever-increasing availability of data from dynamical systems offers an opportunity for automated data-driven decision-making in various domains. However, a significant barrier to realizing this…

The MIT Schwarzman College of Computing awards seed grants to seven interdisciplinary projects exploring AI-augmented management.

The co-founder and director of CICS, which later became LIDS, blended intellectual rigor with curiosity.
Gil Kur Abstract: This dissertation investigates non-parametric regression over large function classes, specifically,non-Donsker classes. We will present the concept of non-Donsker classes and study the statisticalperformance of Least Squares…
Alireza Fallah Abstract: The societal challenges posed by machine learning algorithms are becoming increasingly important, and to effectively study them, it is crucial to incorporate the incentives and…

The department is proud to announce multiple promotions this year.

The system they developed eliminates a source of bias in simulations, leading to improved algorithms that can boost the performance of applications.
Yuzhou Gu Abstract:Initially driven by channel coding, information theory has developed alarge collection of tools for measuring and comparing effectiveness ofinformation channels. These tools have found applications in…

In the award announcement, SIAM noted that Uhler is being honored for her “fundamental contributions at the interface of statistics, machine learning, and biology”.
Tiancheng Yu Abstract: In the presence of multiple learning agents, sequential decision making problems become sequential games. Instead of finding an optimal policy as in single agent setting,…
