Stephen Roberts is the Royal Academy of Engineering / Man Group Professor of Machine Learning at the University of Oxford. His work has shaped our understanding of what is possible with AI, and had a broad impact in the fields of astronomy, biology, healthcare, finance, engineering, control, sensor networks, and system monitoring.
Stephen’s insight lies in the theory and methodology of machine learning for large-scale real-world problems, especially those in which noise and uncertainty abound. He has successfully applied his approaches to assist in exoplanet discovery, human-agent coordination, sensor network monitoring and tracking the spread of deadly diseases.
Professor Michael A Osborne is Professor of Machine Learning at the University of Oxford. His work in Machine Learning has been successfully applied in diverse contexts, from aiding the detection of planets in distant solar systems to enabling self-driving cars to determine when their maps may have changed due to roadworks.
Mike also has deep interests in the broader societal consequences of machine learning and robotics. His work on the significance of machine learning and robotics to future labour markets has impacted government policy and been featured in major media outlets.
