Maja Waldron

Hello, I am an Assistant Professor of Statistics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My research interests include deep probabilistic modeling, generative models, and uncertainty quantification in AI.
My recent publications are available on google scholar.

Research Group

I am actively recruiting students who are interested in the statistical frontiers of modern AI. Students of all levels who are already at UW-Madison are encouraged to reach out. A great way to get involved is through our weekly reading group, where members of my group read and discuss recent research papers on topics of interest.
