Senior Lecturer in the School of Computer Science and Engineering

Research interest

 

Level 1: I use artificial intelligence (AI) to engineer smart systems that learn from experience

Level 2: I take machine learning (ML) algorithms and combine them with declarative programming languages to work on complex data such as networks and dynamic models

Level 3: Combining ML and logic programming to develop explainable AI, we develop novel solutions in applications as diverse as computer chess, online dating and systems biology

 

Interest in engineering

Why did you get into engineering?

 

I got into engineering because I realised the best way for me to understand complex and interesting systems is to attempt to design and implement them

What are your research goals?

 

My research goals are to design and implement computational systems that can learn from experience what they need to know and what they need to do to achieve their design goals

What do people not understand about what you do?

 

People often don’t understand how difficult it can be to make computers able to do the kind of things they can already "do" in movies and on TV

Advice for prospective [insert school] engineers

 

Engineering can a long and twisty route with lots of intellectual foothills to climb but the sense of achievement from every summit you reach is unbeatable
