I am a doctoral student in the group of Prof. Dr. Alexandre Bovet, at the Department of Mathematical Modeling and Machine Learning of the University of Zurich (see here). I work on various aspects of complex network theory. Currently, I am studying diffusion processes over graphs and using tools from information theory to understand the structural properties of complex networks. Moreover, I am interested in topics at the intersection of probability theory and statistics; in particular Markov processes, graphical models, machine learning, and causal inference.
