Over two millennia ago, the ancient mathematician Euclid, widely recognized as the father of geometry, shifted our perspective on shapes. Today, Justin Solomon of MIT uses contemporary geometric methods to tackle complex challenges seemingly unrelated to shapes. Solomon utilizes geometric tools to analyze high-dimensional datasets, providing insights about the potential performance of machine learning models.…

Greek mathematician Euclid revolutionized the concept of shapes over two millennia ago, laying a strong foundation for geometry. Justin Solomon, leveraging his ancient principles with modern geometric techniques, is solving complex issues unrelated to shapes. Solomon, an associate professor at MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and a member of the Computer Science…

Justin Solomon is an associate professor in the MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and a member of the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory who is using geometric techniques to solve complex problems in data science and artificial intelligence, among other areas. These techniques draw upon the geometric structures within datasets to…

Over 2,000 years after Euclid's groundbreaking work in geometry, MIT associate professor Justin Solomon is using the ancient principles in fresh, modern ways. Solomon's work in the Geometric Data Processing Group applies geometry to solve a variety of problems, from comparing datasets in machine learning to enhancing generative AI models. His work assumes a variety…

Over 2,000 years ago, Euclid, a Greek mathematician often referred to as the father of geometry, fundamentally transformed our understanding of shapes.
