Science
The Yandex School of Data Analysis is at the forefront of computer science. We share knowledge — and strive to create it. The Yandex School of Data Analysis cooperates with major universities and is an official partner of CERN. Under the guidance of Yandex staff, our students work on scientific research and speak at leading international AI conferences.
I chose to pursue a career in science and not industrial programming, because I want to develop the field of Computer Science — and if you work for a corporation, your solution usually only benefits the direct client. Modern machine learning is designed in such a way that it is impossible to implement a product without a scientific component. There is a «communal pot» of scientific achievements to which scientists bring their research and from which industrial developers can draw ideas to create new technologies.

The Yandex School of Data Analysis has deep and strong ties to Yandex Research. The School’s students perform research and write papers for A*-ranked conferences with the help of Yandex researchers.
Collaboration with LHCb and CERN
Employees of the group of international research projects focus on applying machine learning and data analysis in physics.
Main research interests:
Developing methods for the practical use of machine learning in scientific research.
Applying machine learning methods to analyze data collected at the Large Hadron Collider and developing new methods for analyzing this data.
Automating monitoring systems and searching for anomalies in data collected by experimental research facilities.
Developing innovative data analysis systems for future experiments.
Creating a universal cyber platform for ensuring the reproducibility of scientific research by teams of scientists.
