Summary

 

Summary

My research interests span several areas including:
(1) reduced-order modelling;
(2) machine-learning for scientific applications;
(3) urban and environmental flows.

I am currently working as an AI in Science Research Fellow jointly at Imperial-X and the Department of Earth Science and Engineering, where I am investigating the use of green infrastructure to combat air pollution. 

I am a co-author of one of Wiley's top cited articles (Jan 2021 - Dec 2022): An autoencoder-based reduced-order model for eigenvalue problems with application to neutron diffusion (https://doi.org/10.1002/nme.6681), which proposed using an autoencoder rather than proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to obtain a low-dimensional space for a projection-based (or intrusive) reduced-order model. The autoencoder can capture the behaviour of a system with fewer degrees of freedom compared to POD.
