Boris Landa

Boris Landa is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at Yale University. His research focuses on statistical signal processing and geometric data analysis, developing theoretical and computational tools for analyzing large, complex datasets. He holds a Ph.D. and M.S. from Tel Aviv University, Israel, and a B.S. from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology.

His work bridges computational methods with applications in molecular biology, cryo-electron microscopy, and high-dimensional data analysis. Notable contributions include robust inference of manifold geometry, doubly stochastic scaling techniques, and multi-reference factor analysis for alignment problems. Recent research explores optimal transport metrics for single-cell data and noise stabilization in signal recovery.

Landa's publications span prestigious journals such as SIAM Journal on Mathematics of Data Science and Information and Inference. His methodologies address challenges in manifold learning, graph Laplacian normalization, and biological dataset integration. Active areas include developing adaptive algorithms for low-rank signal detection and robust statistical techniques for heterogeneous data.

His educational background includes advanced studies in applied mathematics and engineering, with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary applications. Ongoing projects involve geometric approaches to omics data analysis and scalable solutions for large scientific imaging datasets.
