My name is Andriy Mulyar and I am a first year Ph.D student at NYU Courant. My research interests reside in the intersection of machine learning, statistical learning and natural language processing. I enjoy tackling interesting problems in representation learning, language, health and information extraction.

Update (05/2022): I have dropped out of my Ph.D. to found a start-up named Nomic. Nomic focuses on building tools that let humans interact with internet scale sized datasets (e.g. twitter, generated images) . My past six years in machine learning has convinced me that the AI systems of the 2020's will not be built because of better modeling but because of larger and cleaner datasets. Nomic is now the best use of my time.

Update (09/2021): I have ended an exciting year building generative AI products for radiology at Rad AI and have begun my Ph.D!
