I am currently a PhD student in the department of Experiment Psychology at University College London. I am interested broadly in active learning, settings where people learn from the feedback between their actions and observations. I tend to focus on causal structure learning with continuous time and state space systems. This general problem setting is at the intersection of belief updating, reinforcement learning and even meta-learning.
