Abiy Tasissa

Assistant Professor of Mathematics

Welcome to my page! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Tufts University. My research interests lie at the intersection of applied mathematics, optimization, and machine learning.

Research Overview

My current research interests are distance geometry, matrix completion, compressive sensing and structured dictionary learning. I am also interested in the application of these topics to structure prediction, signal processing and machine learning.

In addition to these areas, I maintain a broad interest in applied mathematics and have also worked on problems in gas dynamics and shock waves.

My research has been partially supported by National Science Foundation grant NSF DMS 2304489.
