Abstract: TBA
Biography: I am a Research Team Lead at OpenAI and will soon also be an Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of British Columbia.
Previously, I was a Senior Research Manager and founding member of Uber AI Labs, which was formed after Uber acquired a startup our startup. Prior to Uber, I was the Loy and Edith Harris Associate Professor in Computer Science at the University of Wyoming.
I conduct research in three related areas of machine learning (and combinations thereof):Deep Learning: Improving our understanding of deep neural networks, harnessing them in novel applications, and advancing deep reinforcement learning
Evolving Neural Networks: Investigating open questions in evolutionary biology regarding how intelligence evolved and harnessing those discoveries to improve our ability to evolve more complex, intelligent neural networks
Robotics: Making robots more like animals in being adaptable and resilient
A good way to learn about my research is by visiting my Google Scholar page, which lists all of my publications. You can also view videos about our work.http://jeffclune.com/research.html
