Bayesian nonparametrics, Machine Learning

I am Fadhel Ayed, a doctoral researcher in Statistical Machine Learning at the University of Oxford, advised by Prof. François Caron.

My primary research subject is statistical machine learning with Bayesian Nonparametric methods and models. I have been working on two main lines of research: 1) Methodological and theoretical properties of clustering and feature allocation models, with applications to language and network modeling; 2) Privacy preservation and disclosure risk limitation.

Since September 2019, I have been working part-time with the AWS forecasting team at Amazon Research. I am developing models for anomaly detection at the intersection of Bayesian Machine Learning and Deep learning.
