About
I am in the final year of my PhD in machine learning at the Polish Academy of Sciences, under the supervision of Prof. Paweł Morawiecki. Currently, I am also conducting research on gradient-free optimization for continual learning at the National University of Singapore, under the guidance of Prof. Dianbo Liu from the CogAI4Sci lab. Prior to this, I was a visiting researcher at the University of Pisa (Pervasive AI Lab), with invaluable support from Prof. Vincenzo Lomonaco.
I hold an MSc degree from Jagiellonian University, where I was co-supervised by Prof. Jacek Tabor and Dr. Stanisław Jastrzębski.
And I had a great time as an intern at Nomagic, the company that is working on AI for pick-and-place robots.
My research focuses on Continual (Continuous or Lifelong) learning. I am also interested in meta, transfer and reinforcement learning, especially in the aspects they share. I found fascinating the ability of autonomous agents to make decisions for new or imperfect information. And I enjoy meeting smart artificial friends or foes in video games.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions or are interested in a research collaboration! I am looking for a postdoc position, my expected graduation date is December 2024!
I prefer Python as my daily multy-purpose tool for it's simplicity and beauty of Zen (and don't forget about Pip/Conda). In coding I am following single-responsibility principle and referential transparency with minimal side-effects everywhere where it's fast, clean and makes sense. The spiritual side of my work is based on Unix philosophy.
The Distilled Manifesto: Academic freedom comes first.
Research interests
I have papers on topics:
- Continual learning: the topic of my doctoral dissertation
- Transfer, few- and zero-shot learning (to appear)
- Representation learning
And work in progress:
- Reinforcement learning
- Meta-Learning
- Anomaly detection for continual learning
- AI in video games: agents that interact with the player - NPC, companions. I would like to work on a "wild" wildlife for something like No Man's Sky.
Contact me if you have a project/postdoc in:
- Autonomous intelligent agents
- Space exploration
- Virtual (research) assistants
- Robotics
Of course, I have a deep faith in the supreme power of evolutionary algorithms.
