Vahan Huroyan

I am an Assistant Professor at The Department of Mathematics and Statistics of Saint Louis University starting in August 2024

From 2023-2024, I worked as a machine learning researcher at YerevaNN research lab and Yerevan State University (YSU).

From 2018-2022 I was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Department of Mathematics of The University of Arizona. I was affiliated with the Tripods Research group, working with Professor Stephen Kobourov.

I received my Ph.D. in Mathematics from the Department of Mathematics of the University of Minnesota under the supervision of Professor Gilad Lerman.

You can find my CV [here] and my Google Scholar page [here].

Research Interests

Machine Learning, Mathematical Data Analysis, Computer Vision, Non-convex Optimization.

Teaching

Currently I teach MATH 4800/5080 - Probability Theory [course webpage] and STAT 3850 - Foundation of Statistics [course webpage]
