About me
Hi! My name is Javier (pronounced like ha-bee-air). I am a third year PhD Candidate in the Signal and Image Processing & Machine Learning (SIPML) track of the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at the University of Michigan. I am co-advised by Laura Balzano and Jeffrey Fessler. I am fortunate to be partially supported by the Rackham Merit Fellowship. My research interests are topics such as signal/image processing, machine learning, optimization, and applied math.
I am currently looking for internships for Summer 2024 so please reach out about any opportunities :)
My research so far focuses on the following:
- Improving machine learning algorithms like PCA, subspace clustering, and manifold learning under heteroscedastic (noisy) data conditions
- Optimization algorithms and guarantees for Dynamic MRI
