Information for Potential PhD Students

If you are interested in doing a PhD in probabilistic machine learning at the Australian National University (ANU) under my supervision please first read the Graduate Research Info. If you pass the self assesment, feel free to contact me via email attaching the pre-application Expression of Interest Form. Do not forget to attach your CV and a copy of your academic transcripts. (All documents must be in pdf format.)

You must have a strong math background and good programming skills. I will support your application as long as (a) you are indeed an outstanding student and (b) your project proposal  is aligned with my research interest (preferably in the areas of graphical models, nonparametric Bayesian methods, Gaussian processes, active learning of user preferences, Bayesian recommender systems).

You will have the opportunity to apply for scholarships but you will need to start your application well before 31st August (preferably 2 months before).

These are a few examples of research projects I am currently offering at the ANU but you are welcome to propose your own:
