Hi! I’m Vlad, and I’m a postdoc within DeepSPIN at the Instituto de Telecomunicações, Lisbon, Portugal. I research machine learning & natural language processing, focusing on sparsity and structure.
I obtained my PhD from Cornell in 2018, advised by Claire Cardie. I am a scikit-learn core dev/alum and I develop the polylearn library for factorization machines and polynomial networks in Python.
