PhD Supervision Interests

I would be happy to supervise a PhD student who is interested in computational methods for Bayesian inference or probabilistic machine learning. In particular, the development of new MCMC and SMC algorithms for big data and intractable likelihood problems. Or projects which explore the intersection of sampling and optimisation algorithms.
