Here's a screenshot (from this morning) from fire.airnow.gov; the gray shapes show the smoke plume extent. It looks like there's some spread as far as Atlanta.

I’m joining Cornell as an Assistant Professor in Computer Science this fall! My group will work on probabilistic machine learning for scientific discovery. I’m recruiting PhD students to start in Fall 2027 -- and stay tuned for postdoc opportunities!

Thanks to MIT CS3 for this Q&A about our recent paper on hourly air pollution forecast evaluation! (We find existing forecasts aren't that great, but there's a lot of room for improvement.)

An Automatic Finite-Sample Robustness Metric: When Can Dropping a Little Data Make a Big Difference?
Study samples often differ from the target populations of inference and policy decisions in non-random ways. Researchers typically believe that such departures from random sampling -- due to changes i...

Dropping Just a Handful of Preferences Can Change Top Large Language Model Rankings
We propose a method for evaluating the robustness of widely used LLM ranking systems -- variants of a Bradley--Terry model -- to dropping a worst-case very small fraction of preference data. Our appro...

I’m excited that MIT News covered our new paper on robustness of popular LLM rankings! We find that dropping just 2 out of 57,477 matches can change the top-ranked model on Chatbot Arena (based on historical preference data shared by Chatbot Arena on Hugging Face). news.mit.edu/2026/study-p...

Our work shows that existing confidence intervals can provide way less than nominal coverage (sometimes near 0) in spatial association settings, but we provide a new method that achieves nominal coverage across our experiments.

Scientists are often interested in understanding an association like how much air pollution exposure varies with proximity to a highway. And data (e.g. air pollution sensors) may not be available exactly where they want to estimate the association.

Kudos to the researchers who retracted once they realised their results hinged on a single point. To check this in your own work, for small fractions of your data set (not just single points), check out our R package! cc @tamarabroderick.bsky.social (ryan not on here?) github.com/rgiordan/zam...
