Jędrzej Wydra, a.k.a. General Kenobi

As a “double master” — not a Jedi Master (though that would be pretty awesome), but someone who holds two master’s degrees — I’ve combined my expertise in law and mathematics to delve into the world of forensic science. My research primarily focuses on evaluating evidence related to time of death estimation, developing tools that could greatly assist judges and forensic experts in their critical decision-making processes. In my professional life as a data scientist, I tackle a variety of projects, with a current emphasis on integrating AI into legal practice.

Why did I choose this path? Once I heard a lawyer say, ‘If I could do math, I would be too powerful’, and that was the moment when I decided to gain that power. When I’m not dissecting legal texts or crunching data, you can find me sipping fine Matcha, diving into psychology studies, or working on my calisthenics routine.

Major Milestone: Publication in Signal Processing!

March 2025

Thrilled to announce that my latest research on the independence of functional data has been officially published in Signal Processing! This was, without a doubt, one of the most challenging projects I’ve worked on — combining deep mathematical concepts with rigorous analysis.

Mathematics has always been close to my heart, and having this work featured in the best journal I’ve published in so far makes this achievement even more special. If you're interested in the details, you can check out the full article in Signal Processing!

Big News: Publication in Science & Justice!

December 2024

Exciting update! My work on reconstructing temperature conditions at crime scenes has now been officially published in Science & Justice! This was a challenging yet deeply rewarding project, and seeing it featured in such a respected journal is a huge milestone for me.

If you're curious about forensic temperature reconstruction and how it aids criminal investigations, you can check out the full article in Science & Justice!

New Preprint is Out!

November 2024

Excited to announce my latest preprint: "Distance of Mean Embedding for Testing Independence of Functional Data" is now available on SSRN! This project marks a step into a new field for me, making it a particularly rewarding accomplishment.

Justice Meets Algorithms

October 2024

I’ve just published a new article on Medium: "Can an Algorithm Speak on Behalf of Justice?" It’s a thought-provoking dive into the intersection of AI and the legal system. While a departure from coding and data crunching, this piece explores how algorithms might shape the future of justice — or perhaps just spark a lot of questions.

New Preprint is Live!

September 2024

I’ve just shared something I’m really proud of — a preprint titled “Forensically useful mid-term and short-term temperature reconstruction for quasi-indoor death scenes” on ArXiv. This one was a tough project, but it’s a big success for me.

Check it out on ArXiv if you’re curious!

Red alert! No, wait... MEDIUM ALTER!

August 2024

I’ve just ventured into something a bit different — a light-hearted article about tea, now up on Medium. It’s a small departure from my usual academic work, but sometimes it’s refreshing to explore new brews. Feel free to take a sip of it here!
