The School of Informatics and the University of Edinburgh has a long and prestigious history in both Artificial Intelligence and Computer Systems. It has a concentration of research across AI applications such as natural language, vision, robotics, and medicine. This CDT will be strongly collaborative, bringing people together across the whole ML-Systems Stack. We expect each student to have a supervisor from the more ML side and a supervisor from the more Systems side (potentially with other supervisors).
The CDT Directors are all potential supervisors on the CDT.
The CDT Manager coordinates the CDT as a whole.
A more comprehensive list of people who are potential supervisors is listed here, under a variety of categories. This is by no means exhaustive. If you are not sure of the right supervisor for you, it is possible to apply without naming a supervisor. If you have discussed things with a potential supervisor, then please make that clear in your application. Some projects will be done with CDT Partners. They are also listed below.
Computer Systems and Hardware for ML
ML Methods, Architectures and Deployment
Programming Languages and Database for ML
Trustworthiness, Ethics, Safety, Security and Privacy
