Andreas Kirsch

I am a DPhil student with Prof Yarin Gal in the OATML group at the University of Oxford and a student in the AIMS program. Originally from Romania, I grew up in Southern Germany. After studying Computer Science and Mathematics at the Technical University in Munich, I spent a couple of years in Zurich as a software engineer at Google (YouTube). I worked as a performance research engineer at DeepMind for a year before starting my DPhil in September 2018. I am interested in Bayesian Deep Learning, Information Theory (and its application within Information Bottlenecks and Active Learning), and Uncertainty Quantification. I also like to think about AI Ethics and AI Safety.
