Academic Achievements
  • Recipient of the ELLIS PhD Award; Outstanding Paper Award at NeurIPS; a total of eight “Orals” at ICLR, NeurIPS & ICML (leading machine learning conferences) and VSS (leading human vision conference).
Research Experience
  • Senior Research Scientist at Google DeepMind; PhD Research Intern at FAIR / Meta AI in 2021, working with Ari Morcos and Surya Ganguli.
Education
  • PhD: International Max Planck Research School for Intelligent Systems (IMPRS-IS) and University of Tübingen, supervised by Felix Wichmann, Matthias Bethge, and Wieland Brendel.
Background
  • Research Interests: The intersection of deep learning and visual perception. Focused on understanding how deep neural networks (DNNs) see the world, including their limits, biases, and the underlying patterns behind their successes.
Miscellany
  • Interests: Developing quantitative methods to compare DNNs with the human visual system and aiming to overcome the differences.
