Research interests
In this research, several mathematical and computational techniques (spectral embedding, topological data analysis, computational geometry) will be combined to enable practical analysis of complex connectivity data. The basic idea is to convert these complex objects into simpler structures, typically point clouds, and use geometric and topological information in these point clouds to make inference about the original object. The main envisaged application area is cyber-security, where complex connectivity data is ubiquitous and often very poorly exploited.
