Hello world! Welcome to my personal webpage.
I am 1st year M.Sc. student @ University of Alberta. I am fortunately supervised by professor Csaba Szepesvari. I am also a RL Community Lead @ CohereAI
I am interested in understanding rigorously machine learning algorithms. Specifically, I care about the mathematical limits of current algorithms and want to design new ones with theoretical assurances. I also care about symbolic AI and reasoning.
A current list of my interests:
- Reinforcement Learning theory
- Learning theory
- Online Learning
- (Online) Optimization
- Symbolic AI and reasoning
Sipping tea or coffee and watching Netflix are my hobby. Learning more about coffee is one of my side projects for this year. Additionally, I enjoy painting and fishing.
Finally, I am a huge fan of corgis, especially Brady and Graffiti.
