Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher's publication record spans two distinct areas: observational astronomy focused on polarimetric monitoring (measuring how light polarizes when reflected) of asteroids, comets, and Jupiter's moons to study their surfaces and activity, and theoretical computer science work on multi-armed bandit algorithms (methods for decision-making under uncertainty) and string similarity algorithms. The astronomy work involves telescope observations and modeling of small Solar System bodies.
