David Arbour

Senior Research Scientist

San Jose, CA

I am currently a researcher at Adobe research where my work focuses on the intersection between experimentation, causal inference, and machine learning and AI with a particular focus on dependent data. Previously I was a research scientist in the Core Data Science group at Facebook. My work at Facebook focused on developing methods for adaptive experimentation, specifically Bayesian optimization and contextual bandits. Previous to that, I earned a PhD from UMass Amherst in computer science.

I am currently looking for motivated students for research internships in the Summer of 2025. Interested students should reach out to me directly.
