Elina Robeva is an Associate Professor of Mathematics at UBC. Her research lies at the intersection of mathematical statistics, machine learning, combinatorics, multilinear algebra, and applied algebraic geometry. She develops machine learning and optimization methods for inference in models that depict complex dependencies in data. Her work spans causal inference, graphical models, tensor decomposition, non-parametric density estimation, and super-resolution imaging. Dr. Robeva is a recipient of the SIAM Algebraic Geometry Early Career Prize, CAIMS/PIMS Early Career Research Award, and the André-Aisenstadt Prize. She is a fellow of the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute and a Canada CIFAR AI Chair.
