Assistant Professor in Machine Learning

KTH Royal Institute of Technology

I am an Assistant Professor in Machine Learning at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden and a member of the ELLIS society. Before joining KTH, I was an Academy of Finland postdoctoral researcher at Aalto University working with Arno Solin. My research is centred around representing, quantifying, and reducing uncertainties to make machine learning more trustworthy. I am particularly interested in efficient and principled approaches for large-scale models such as LLMs & VLMs.

See biography for more details.

Research Interests

  • Tractable Models: Probabilistic circuits, neurosymbolics, and exact & approximate Bayesian inference.
  • Bayesian Learning: Uncertainty quantification & reduction in deep learning, inductive biases, and non-parametric & function-space methods.
  • Probabilistic Numerics: Probabilistic programming, numerical imprecision, error and uncertainty quantification.
