Happy to announce I passed my viva for my thesis "Dimensionless Bayesian Model-Based Reinforcement Learning" I thank the examiners Dr Christos Anagnostopoulos and Prof Carl Edward Rasmussen for their comments and insightful discussions.
Come join me in Glasgow on the #ERC FUSION Project Funded by UKRI Guarantee on Social Immersive Technologies! We're based in the Advanced Research Centre and will be exploring the big questions about how we experience immersive realities together! my.corehr.com/pls/uogrecruit…
