I am a fourth year PhD student in Computer Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin. My research is currently supported by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. I'm also co-mastermind of FAI.
I'm interested primarily in generative models of latent combinatorial structure in unlabeled data; in particular the prickly notion of how representation comes to bear on learning. My previous home was in theoretical evolutionary biology where I studied evolvability under randomized search schemes. These two fields are not wholly unrelated, i.e. biological evolution may be a Bayes-optimal decision process.
