About Me

Hello 👋! I recently completed my PhD in Computer Science at Sorbonne Université in Paris. My thesis, titled "Algorithms Under Uncertainty: Robust Methods and Decision-Theoretic Evaluation", was carried out at LIP6 within the Operations Research group (RO). My research explores how algorithms can integrate machine learning predictions while maintaining robust performance guarantees. In particular, I work on learning-augmented algorithms, robust optimization, and decision-theoretic evaluation of algorithms.

I was fortunate to conduct my PhD under the supervision of Spyros Angelopoulos and Christoph Dürr.

Before moving to Paris, I completed both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Applied Mathematics and Informatics at Novosibirsk State University, where I had the privilege of working under the supervision of Adil Erzin. His mentorship strongly influenced my interest in algorithms and optimization.

Life

Outside of research, I enjoy staying active. I train CrossFit and also spend time running, cycling, and swimming, and occasionally share some of these activities on Strava. Each of these sports has its own charm, although CrossFit probably wins when it comes to making you question your life choices during a workout.

At some point I would like to try a triathlon. For now, I’m still in the phase of trying to get reasonably good at the three disciplines separately before combining them all together.
