About

I'm a PhD student on the AIMS CDT supervised by Professor Mark van der Wilk in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Oxford.

Training modern AI systems requires huge datasets and expensive data centres. In contrast, we as humans can learn much more efficiently, in terms of data and memory consumption. How can we design AI models that can learn as efficiently and robustly as humans can learn? Answering this question is the goal of my research.

Answering this question would be useful, firstly because it would reduce the energy and hardware costs of training large AI models, and secondly because it would improve our scientific understanding of intelligence.
