I work on optimization under uncertainty, in particular high-dimensional Bayesian optimization. I’m particularly interested in applications for combinatorial and mixed search spaces in BO such as drug discovery, neural architectural search, and hyperparameter optimization. Moreover, I collaborate on creating a large language model to enable scientifically grounded AI.
