Research
I’m a post-doctoral Research Fellow in the Research School of Information Sciences and Engineering at the Australian National University in Canberra, Australia. I work with other members of the Statistical Machine Learning group in the Computer Sciences Lab. As of July 2009, I also work part-time with NICTA’s research groups.
Publications
I have published papers on topics in learning theory, transfer learning, and inductive logic programming (ILP). A summary of my recent work can be found in Information, Divergence and Risk for Binary Experiments.
Blog
Since September 2007 I have kept a blog on machine learning and statistical inference called inductio ex machina.
