    Conducted research in the area of kernel methods and unsupervised learning leading to doctoral thesis: "Support Vector Methods for Unsupervised Learning". Main results can be summarized as nonlinear primal - dual models for several unsupervised learning problems such as feature extraction, dimensionality reduction, denoising and clustering in the style of support vector machines. The novelty corresponds to the incorporation of advanced concepts such as out-of-sample extensions and model selection into the models.
