Shai Ben-David is a Professor and University Research Chair at the Department of Computer Science, University of Waterloo. He is affiliated with the Cheriton School of Computer Science and can be reached at shai@uwaterloo.ca . His office is located in DC 2643. Education: Ph.D., Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel (1987) M.Sc., Hebrew University Jerusalem, Israel (1979) B.Sc., Hebrew University Jerusalem, Israel (1978) Research interests focus on foundational aspects of machine learning theory, including unsupervised learning (clustering), domain adaptation, fairness, interpretability, and alternative approaches to worst-case computational complexity. He also explores logic applications in computer science theory. His research trends emphasize theoretical challenges in machine learning, particularly clustering, fairness in representations, and the interplay between computational feasibility and learnability. He investigates how unlabeled data and sample compression techniques impact learning robustness and efficiency. No scientific awards are listed. His advising record shows no formal advisees listed here. Grants and funding details are not provided in the text. He has contributed to organizing events like the Dagstuhl Seminar on Foundations of Unsupervised Learning (2017) and co-edited MFCS 2016 proceedings. His work addresses both theoretical questions and practical gaps in ML implementation.
