Biography
I am a DPhil student at the Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford, under the supervision of Prof. Marta Kwiatkowska. I am working on the Alan Turing Institute and EPRSC project FAIR: Framework for responsible adoption of artificial intelligence in the financial services industry, where my part of the project is introduced here. I received my undergraduate degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Oxford in 2020. My research interests rest at the intersection of Deep Learning (DL), Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Causal Inference. My recent works are focused on the learning decision making policies that are sample-efficient and optimal, decision making at the presence of unobserved confounders and robustness of neural networks, approached from both theoritical and empirical/practical perspectives.
