Making sense of human communication and cognitive understanding is at the heart of our work in AI and modelling. Research in these areas, particularly the success of deep learning, is leading to unprecedented improvements in areas of artificial intelligence and interdisciplinary modelling.
Our research includes the development of algorithms for generating and understanding natural language, music, gesture and other forms of interaction and communication. We also use machine learning and modelling techniques in interdisciplinary research on astronomy, education, human health, life science and more.
Minimum 2:1 undergraduate degree (or equivalent). If you are not a UK citizen, you may need to prove your knowledge of English.
