Tenindra Abeywickrama

I’m a Research Scientist at the RIKEN Center for Computational Science in the AI for Science Division. My research focuses on developing efficient, scalable, and theoretically robust algorithms, with particular emphasis on AI, big data management and analytics, graphs, and optimization.
Having had the opportunity to apply some of my research in industry, I’m also particularly interested in bridging the gap between research and practice, so scientific advances can more easily translate into meaningful real-world impact.
If you are interested in a stay with our team, RIKEN offers a number of programs for PhD students and postdocs, see here
