Iolo Jones

I'm a PhD student in Mathematics at Durham University. I work on geometry and its applications to machine learning and data analysis.

I particularly focus on diffusion geometry, which defines a notion of geometry for probability spaces and lets you measure that geometry from data. I'm particularly interested in applying these methods to problems in physical sciences where complex processes and functions are often determined by 'shape'.

If you have any questions or comments about my work or would like to collaborate I would love to hear from you: please get in touch!

In Spring 2025, I am visiting the Institute of Artificial Intelligence at the Medical University of Vienna.

I am looking for a postdoc for February 2026!
