Short bio / research interests / publications: In school, I used to win some olympiads and enrolled in university on a non-competitive basis. During my bachelor my main research interests were related to Morse theory in polytopes, then I enjoyed Machine Learning. I won all in-course ML competitions, and a year later, when I started my Master’s education in Advanced Mathematics, I was hunted by Anton Alekseev into Sergey Nikolenko’s lab at PDMI RAS. There I was actively working on commercial DL research for big tech companies (Huawei and SBER), during this time we wrote 3 papers where I was the first author — the links are available in my CV.

Also, I have been married for almost 4 years, my wife is pursuing her Master’s degree in sociology at Konstanz University, that’s why I have a superior interest in PhDs somewhere near: ETH, EPFL, Politecnico di Milano is my ultimate dream, and I am wondering if you can give me any advice on enrolling process or anything that may help me to get into this universities.

Level: PhD, MS, Internship, Research Visit
Keywords: Python, Data Science, Machine Learning
Short bio / research interests / publications: I was born in a family, where I was given liberty to pursue my interests which gave me the space to think freely and ask questions. From diving into textbooks to getting our hands dirty in the laboratory, I was always fascinated by the parallels we can draw in the two worlds. I studied hard and secured my B.Tech from Malviya National Institute of Technology Jaipur where I had the opportunity to study mathematics, thermodynamics, simulation etc.
In 2017, I moved to Pittsburgh to pursue my Masters of Sciences from Carnegie Mellon University which was a mix of course work and thesis. I chose Chemical Engineering because I was really fascinated by the research on mathematics performed by the faculty there. From attending lectures on optimizing large scale systems by Prof. Larry Biegler to implementing genetic algorithms to solve an NP-hard problem, the coursework really helped me build a foundation. Later, I also got the opportunity to work on my master’s thesis under the guidance of Prof. Nikolaos Sahinidis on an industrial text analytics problem for reliability. I also got an opportunity to take courses on deep learning and natural language processing which further helped me enhance my working knowledge on my thesis. The course also helped me get hands on experience on both text and utterances as input.
Adding to the academic background, I was involved in various hackathons that involved problems from the medical domain. One of which was to identify sleeping patterns in a healthy human’s sleeping cycle for which we in a team of 5 built a binary classification model utilizing a sliding window approach to feature engineer the data. The second was a natural language problem to identify the cancer site location based on a person’s diagnostic history, the event was in collaboration with a hospital in Pittsburgh.
At present, I hold a great deal of interests in machine learning. For example trying to understand how state of the art machine learning techniques can help gain better insights on underlying operational data. Although neural networks are tagged as universal approximators, one can still see varying performances in the domain of images and natural language. While challenging, I feel I would be able to contribute to the lab’s ongoing research with my interdisciplinary research and more than that learn the missing connections through the use of algorithmic techniques that form the core of many machine learning models out there.

My bachelor’s specialty is sociology, during which we mainly studied statistical methods. I enclose my CV and a sample of my works. One is a publication in the Q2 journal, where I used structural equation modeling to analyze behavioral characteristics during a pandemic. The second one is a term paper from last year. In computer science I am mostly dealing with NLP, currently working on an automation coding project for semi-structured interviews (https://github.com/Likich/TM_graph). However, I also have projects on computer vision (https://github.com/Dghitman/TipsTricks_Project_TrLights).

So far I have several publications and participated in international conferences, including the International Conference on Computational Social Science in the Netherlands, and participated in a summer school on computational social science from Montreal.

Recently I took part in a hackathon with a colleague where we wrote an OSINT that automatically scrapes news resources and extracts entities from them using NER, displaying everything in a graph (https://github.com/jademirror/ng_hackaton).

Level: PhD, Research Visit
Keywords: RL, ML, optimization, sparsification, hierarchical RL
Short bio / research interests / publications: I am a 35 year old with 12 year working experience. I have been deeply immersed in machine learning for the last seven years, during which worked on various project, both industrial and theoretically inclined, aimed at optimization and sparsification methods for DL.

I have successfully completed my PhD studies on “applied mathematics, computer science and engineering” at Skoltech in 2020. My PhD thesis on the topic of model sparsification: sparse-regularized matrix decompositions, variational dropout, and parameter pruning methods based on second-order loss approximation. I have one major paper at ICML2020 (https://proceedings.mlr.press/v119/nazarov20a.html) about variational Dropout for complex-valued deep networks.

In the last year i have been consumed by the exciting and challenging field of Reinforcement Learning and Optimal Control, specifically hierarchical policies, planning, MCTS and adaptive computations. My team took first place in the recent NeurIPS Nethack Challenge for our hybrid algorithmic-neural solution.

Level: PhD, Internship
Keywords: TCS,PhD,combinatorics,proof theory,circuit complexity
Short bio / research interests / publications: I am a PhD student at PDMI RAS primarily interested in TCS and combinatorics. My latest research was devoted to proof systems–in particular, Res-Lin proof system over finite fields and related computational models extending branching programs–and circuit complexity–one of the last paper (joint work) explores Valiant’s program posing a combinatorial hypergraph-related problem. The latter work also involves a few problems related to extremal graph theory, which seem to be interesting on their own. Overall, my research interests include algebraic proof systems, Boolean function complexity (in particular, progress towards strong AC0-Xor lower bounds), extremal combinatorics. See CV or https://dblp.org/pid/243/3837.html for a list of publications related to TCS.
