Fredrik Hellström’s PhD defense

Yesterday, my PhD student Fredrik Hellström successfully defended his PhD thesis entitled “Information theoretic generalization bounds: tightness and expressiveness” [.pdf]

The faculty opponent was Prof. Gergely Neu. The grading committee consisted of

• Prof. Peter Grünwald (CWI, The Netherlands)
• Prof. Yevgeny Seldin (DTU, Denmark)
• Prof. Mikael Skoglund (KTH, Sweden)

Many congratulation, Fredrik, for the achievement!
