About me
University of Ghent, faculty of engineering
After finishing my masters degree in CS Engineering (Information & Communication Technology) at the University of Ghent in 2011, I accepted a position as a scientific researcher at the University of Antwerp and hope to eventually pursue a Phd in neuroscience at the University of Brussels (VUB). My main interests are Machine Learning and Robotics. I used to be interested in security and co-founded a security group called VirtuaX that spread knowledge of and sparked interest in the security field. Unfortunately I felt it wasn’t a goal worth pursuing anymore, partly due to the unclear legal laws and partly due to time constraints.
- University of Antwerp, faculty of applied economics
Subjects that I particularly like include :
- Neural Networks, Central Pattern Generators and other biologically inspired networks (ie. how to simulate the brain on a computer)
- Evolutionary and Genetic Algorithms (ie. how to learn, inspired by biological processes)
- Cellular Automata and other generative algorithms (ie. how to create seemingly complex behaviors from simple rules of interaction)
- Subsumption (ie. how to create complex behaviors from simple stimulus driven rules in robots)
- Machine Learning
Other than my technical interests, I’m also intrigued by music and other art forms (I realise that this is a very vague statement).
