Maria Dimakopoulou is a Greek computer scientist and Senior Research Scientist at Spotify[1], specializing in machine learning, particularly in the areas of reinforcement learning, contextual bandits, and causal inference.
Early Life and Education
editAfter graduating with a Dipl. Ing. from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering[2] with a perfect 10/10 GPA[3], National Technical University of Athens, Dimakopoulou completed her PhD in Management Science & Engineering at Stanford University[4]. She was advised by Benjamin Van Roy and Susan Athey. Her PhD research was funded by the "Arvanitidis" Stanford Graduate Fellowship[5] in Memory of William K. Linvill and the Onassis Foundation Graduate Fellowship.
Career and Research
editDimakopoulou's research[6] focuses on the development and application of machine learning algorithms. She has made significant contributions to reinforcement learning and contextual bandits, which are critical for decision-making processes under uncertainty.
Key Contributions
edit- Reinforcement Learning and Contextual Bandits: Developed algorithms for contextual bandit problems, which are used in recommendation systems and personalized healthcare treatments.
- Causal Inference: Worked on methods to ensure robust predictions and decisions from observational data, addressing challenges in adaptive data collection.
- Innovative Algorithms and Estimators: Co-authored influential papers on off-policy evaluation and risk minimization, improving the reliability of machine learning models.
