Mentor Areas

My research group focuses on (a) theoretical problems in deep learning, and (b) visual perception in robotics. We conduct quite multi-disciplinary research along these lines. We use ideas from physics, information theory and neuroscience in addition to more classical perspectives from learning theory and computer vision. Everyone, from engineers and computer scientists to mathematicians and physicists will find something interesting to study in our group.

Description:

Projects will vary. Interested students should contact us to discuss possibilities.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Familiarity with deep learning methods. 
  • Undergraduate-level coursework in machine learning, probability and optimization is a plus. 
  • Proficiency in programming with Python.
