Biography
I'm a research scientist at Google.
I work on machine learning and its applications.
I completed my honours in Computer Science from the University of Sydney in 2006 under Sanjay Chawla. I completed my PhD in Computer Science from UC San Diego in 2013 under Charles Elkan. From 2013 - 2018, I held positions at NICTA, CSIRO Data61, and the Australian National University, working with Bob Williamson and other inimitable colleagues.
Here is a copy of my CV.

Research interests
I am broadly interested in the design and analysis of machine learning algorithms for (weakly-) supervised learning problems occurring in practice.
Current areas of interest include:
- Efficient inference for large (language) models (e.g., knowledge distillation, model cascading)
- Retrieval and re-ranking (e.g., negative mining, loss function design)
- Foundations of (weakly-)supervised learning (e.g. class-probability estimation, bipartite ranking)
Selected publications
Below are a few representative publications.
For a full list, see here.
Inspired by Bernard Chazelle's wonderful idea of "liner notes" for his papers, I've included some of my own for a few papers. (Liner notes are not peer-, or even coauthor-reviewed.)
