Pronouns: he/him

I'm a third year PhD student, undertaking a project in collaboration with Siemens Mobility on "Artificial Intelligence and Mechanism Design for Optimal Routing of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles". I am supervised by Dr Stein and Dr Gerding within the School of Electronics and Computer Science at the University of Southampton. Prior to undertaking a PhD, I graduated from the University of Southampton with a BSc in Computer Science. In my third year as an undergraduate, I worked with a local hospital to create a new matching algorithm for allocation of doctors and clinical staff to radiotherapy patients.

I'm particularly interested in machine learning, game theory and mechanism design in the area of intelligent traffic systems. For the past two years, I've worked part time throughout my studies in a web dev/dev ops role for the University of Southampton.

• Modelling traffic as a multi-market problem! I believe that it's really difficult to get a good idea of what's going on in a road network when we only consider one specific element (such as only traffic lights), so by modelling multiple competing agents (different travel providers, i.e. in London there are buses, trains, the tube, and micromobility providers), we can get a much better idea of the network state and provide better solutions.
• Reinforcement learning and neural information learning (primarily graph neural networks) and for traffic light management. This includes comparing and evaluating existing state of the art solutions and their unintended impacts on traffic networks.
• Intention aware traffic management; Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs), and Electric Vehicles (EVs) are likely to become commonplace in the next decade, and management of resources such as road networks and charging locations could vastly improve the experience of road users whilst yielding particularly interesting technology.
• sumhc.live; I represent the University of Southampton Hockey Club and I have setup and maintained wessex.live, a customised link shortener which allows our players to navigate the needlessly complex websites used by Hampshire Hockey Association and BUCs.

I'm really interested in collaboration with both academic and industry partners! Feel free to reach out to me for anything.
