What am I doing now?


Last on updated on 25th February 2024, while visiting my parents in Liepaja, Latvia.

Closing work stuff

As of Jan'24, I am a Research Assistant @ DTU (Social Complexity Lab). I am working on some follow up stuff to the life2vec paper, that includes a simpler implementation of the workflow: carlomarxdk/life2vec-light.

Working with the Library Transaction dataset (book embeddings?)…

Things to come

As of May'24, I am starting as a Postroctoral Associate Researcher in RADLAB (Network Science Institute, Northeastern University). I am going to work on the topics including Just Machine Learning and Trustworthy Network Science.

Hence, I am also looking for a long-term accomodation (or a room) in Boston (starting from apprx. May 1st) in areas such as Allstone, Brookline, Fenway, North/South End, South Boston, Cambridge, Summerville (just to name a few). Drop me a message if you know something :)

Other stuff

Getting ready to walk the Portuguese Way (from Porto) to Camino de Santiago (in September). Any tips?
