Alkis Gotovos PhD Student alkisg@inf.ethz.ch CAB E 62.1 +41 44 632 39 02 Some broad topics of interest to me include Bayesian optimization, submodularity, and probabilistic submodular models. Lately, I have been working on using MCMC sampling for performing approximate inference in probabilistic submodular models.
