Presentation of professor: Samuel Kaski

In January, Samuel Kaski will start as an Academy Professor funded by the Academy of Finland at Aalto University.

Currently he is making plans for his new positions with his research group. He also leads the Finnish Centre of Excellence in Computational Inference Research COIN.

The rest of the fall semester of 2015 he will spend three months as a visiting researcher at Kyoto University.

- My research has always concentrated on machine learning. It is on the one hand computer science, in which goals are defined with the help of statistics, and on the other hand statistics, in which computation is centrally important.

Researchers turn energy loss into a way of creating lossless photonics-based devices

Turning energy loss from a fatal flaw into a dial for fine-tuning new states of matter into existence could yield better laser, quantum and optical technology.

Herd immunity may not work how we think

A new study from researchers at Aalto University suggests that our picture of herd immunity may be incomplete — and that understanding how people are connected could be just as important as knowing how many are immune.
