Supervision
PhD students (main and co-supervision)
September 2020-ongoing: main supervisor for Petar Jovanovski (Chalmers University). Petar's project is about simulation-based Bayesian inference for stochastic modelling and particulary SDEs. The project is funded by the Swedish Research Council and the Chalmers AI Research Centre (CHAIR).
2017-2021: main supervisor for Samuel Wiqvist (Lund University). He worked on Bayesian inference for intractable likelihoods, using particles-based methods (sequential Monte Carlo), approximate Bayesian computation and deep learning strategies using normalising flows. His PhD thesis is entitled "Simulation-based Inference: From Approximate Bayesian Computation and Particle Methods to Neural Density Estimation", and here are his papers.
Samuel's research was partially funded by the Swedish National Research Council.
current co-supervision: (2023-2028) Erik Karlsson Nordling (main sv: Marina Axelson-Fisk), (2020-2024) Sebastian Persson (main sv: Marija Cvijovic), (2020-2024) Konstantinos Konstantinou (main sv: Aila Särkkä).
Completed co-supervision: (2020-2024) Konstantinos Konstantinou (main sv: Aila Särkkä); (2018-2023) Gustav Lindwall (main sv: Philip Gerlee).
