<Lucas Janson> studies <high-dimensional statistics> and statistical <machine learning>, with scientific collaborations in <genetics>, <climatology> and political science. His current Stanford homepage describes this combination of methodological research and applications.https://lucasjanson.github.io/[Author research description]{ref}
He coauthored distillation for the <conditional randomization test>. Its computational motivation is that a powerful test statistic may involve expensive <machine learning>; distillation avoids repeating the most costly fitting step for every conditional resample.<Fast and Powerful Conditional Randomization Testing via Distillation by Molei Liu and others>[Abstract and introduction]{ref}
