Research

From statistical foundations to deployable machine learning.

Our projects emphasize end-to-end machine learning: data acquisition, feature engineering, modeling, validation, interpretation, and research communication.

Current Research Areas

Our lab studies how machine learning can be more reliable, more useful in real-world settings, and more impactful across scientific domains.

Research Area 1

Trustworthy Machine Learning

Building reliable, interpretable, and statistically grounded machine learning methods for high-stakes decision making.

Research Area 2

Generative AI & Synthetic Data

Developing principled methods for synthetic data generation, data augmentation, and privacy-preserving machine learning.

Research Area 3

Statistical Foundations of AI

Combining statistics and machine learning to improve uncertainty quantification, robustness, model evaluation, and scientific reliability.

The Assembly Line

Our research workflow

Students learn a structured pipeline that moves from raw data to polished research outputs: live demos, posters, technical reports, and manuscripts.
