    Just wrapped up filming the last lecture for my graduate "Shape Analysis" course (@MIT @MITEECS @MIT_CSAIL 6.838)! Check out this playlist for 36 hours, 57 minutes, 39 sec of [admittedly idiosyncratic] lectures covering topics in applied geometry: youtube.com/playlist?list=… πŸŽ‰πŸš¨πŸ”₯πŸ’»

    Gave a talk and used the phrase β€œclassical theorem by an old dead mathematician.” Turns out he was in the room.

    My group will be seeking new PhD students in the coming cycle! The best way to reach us is to apply to the @MITEECS PhD program. I look for independent, creative, interactive, supportive, passionate, bright students who want to work on fundamental problems with a geometry flavor.

    Just got rejected from a grant I didn’t apply for. I guess that’s more efficient than the usual rejection where you write a proposal first?

    Wasserstein barycenters are useful in stats/ML but typical algorithms discretize the domain, leading to low-dimensional/coarse approximations. With PhD student Lingxiao Li, postdoc Aude Genevay @a_gnv, and @MITIBMLab's Misha Yurochkin we construct a continuous barycenter!πŸ”₯πŸŽŠπŸŽˆπŸŽ‰
