Prof. Abigail Adams
Abigail Adams is an Associate Professor in Economics at the University of Oxford in association with New College and a Research Fellow at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, London. Research Interests Professor Adams’ research develops new ways of bringing economic models of decision-making to data in a flexible, yet theory–consistent, manner. Recent work includes articles […]
Dr. Mariano Beguerisse Díaz
Mariano is a senior research fellow in the Mathematical Institute at the University of Oxford. His primary research interest is developing mathematical methods for the tractable representation of complex data systems. In particular, he is interested in directed networks, network inference, dynamics on/of networks, temporal networks, and going from meta-data to full-data descriptions. He develops […]
Prof. Michael Benedikt
Michael Benedikt received his PhD in mathematical logic from the University Wisconsin. He then spent a decade in industrial research at Bell Laboratories, working on computational logic, data management, and telecommunications. Since 2007 he has been a professor in Oxford University’s computer science department. Research Interests Professor Benedikt’s research spans automated reasoning, data management, with […]
Prof. Francesco C. Billari
Professor Francesco C. Billari is a demographer and sociologist, who focuses on the study of life course dynamics and population change, in particular fertility and family change. Previous research includes the analysis of life course data as event histories, sequences of states; expert-based methods in population forecasting; agent-based models of population change. Recently, he has […]
Prof. François Caron
Prof. François Caron’s research interests lie in the development of statistical models and computational procedures for the analysis of structured data, with particular interest in Bayesian nonparametrics and Monte Carlo methods. His recent research focuses on building probabilistic models of network data which can capture the salient properties of real-world networks (sparsity, modularity), as well […]
Prof. Coralia Cartis
Assoc. Prof. Cartis’ research is on optimization, algorithm development, analysis and implementation for a variety of problem classes (linear, convex, nonconvex, smooth/nonsmooth, stochastic), suitable for large scale. In the past few years, her research focused on complexity of nonconvex optimization problems; compressed sensing; parameter estimation for climate modelling. Currently, she is investigating optimization methods for […]
Corinne Cath
Corinne J.N. Cath worked at the intersection of Internet governance, tech-policy, ethics and human rights for various years. She joined the Oxford Internet Institute in 2015 as an MSc student. Her MSc research at the OII focused on the (im)possibility of instantiating human rights principles in Internet standards and protocols. Before coming to Oxford she […]
