Army Young Investigator

I am very excited that my project “Mathematics for Learning Nonlinear Generalizations of Subspace Models in High Dimensions” has won the Army Young Investigator award! Subspace models are widely used due to simplicity and ease of analysis. However, while these linear models are very powerful in many high-dimensional data contexts, they also often miss out on important nonlinearities in real data. This project aims to extend recent advances in signal processing to the single-index model and the nonlinear variety model. Read the department’s announcement here.
