Matthias Mozer holds a PhD in particle physics. After receiving his degree he spent several years in academia, some of these at the European particle laboratory CERN. He obtained his initial experience in the use of machine learning in work on the hadronic decay of vector bosons. Making the switch to industry, he has been working at Wayfair as a staff machine learning scientist for several years. His initial work at Wayfair was focused on generating insights from customer feedback using natural language processing, pushing the boundaries of accuracy by introducing transformer based language models at Wayfair. Currently he is working on leading the Machine Learning model development of major data-science projects that streamline the efficiency of Wayfair’s supply chain.
