Kenny Chiu

Ph.D. Student @ UBC Statistics

Kenny Chiu

I am a Ph.D. Statistics student at the University of British Columbia. My supervisor is Benjamin Bloem-Reddy. I am interested in the uses of symmetry in inference and computation, and I am working on data-based methods for identifying distributional symmetries that may be exploited to better solve problems in statistics and machine learning.

I am involved in various activities within the Department of Statistics. I TA for statistics courses and train new TAs in the department. I assist with Flexible Learning studies that aim to improve learning resources for statistics. I manage finances for the Statistics Graduate Student Association. Outside of the department, I also facilitate Instructional Skills Workshops for graduate students at the CTLT.

This page summarizes my thoughts about the courses I took during my B.Sc. at UBC. Current undergraduate students at UBC who are interested in statistics, machine learning or data science may find it to be of interest.
