Roberto Bayardo's Home Page

Welcome to my primitive little home on the web. In addition to a bit of information about myself, here you can find:

Selected publications that describe various projects I have worked on.
Several algorithms, data-sets and other resources I have made available for download.

Research Interests

Interests include web3, digital & decentralized finance, blockchains, and trust-minimization in distributed computing. Previously I've worked in the areas of data mining, data science, applied machine learning, and web & enterprise search.

Currently working at Commonware where we're building out the stack that will power the next generation of blockchains and web3 applications.
