With a primary focus on high-dimensional data, Dr. Mohammad Shahrokh Esfahani has significant expertise in developing machine learning tools. Much of his work involves constructing Bayesian models, which effectively convert 'prior knowledge', either inherent in the dataset or obtained from external sources, into mathematical terms—more specifically, prior probabilities.
