Andrei Manolache
IMPRS-IS and ELLIS PhD Student. ML Researcher at Bitdefender. Interested in robust & trustworthy Geometric Deep Learning. š·š“ ā”ļø š©šŖ
Hi there š! Iām Andrei, I am currently a Ph.D. candidate at the International Max Planck Research School for Intelligent Systems and ELLIS, under the co-supervision of Mathias Niepert (University of Stuttgart) and Karsten Borgwardt (ETH ZĆ¼rich & MPI-B). I am also a Machine Learning Researcher at Bitdefenderās Theoretical Research Laboratory. I got a B.Sc. in Mathematics and a M.Sc. in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Bucharest. In the past I have also worked as a Software Engineer for NXP Semiconductors.
Iāve served as a reviewer for EMNLP 2022, ICML 2022/2023, NeurIPS 2022/2023. I got a Best Reviewer award for NeurIPS 2022 and 2023.
My Ph.D. research focuses on the design and development of Geometric Deep Learning methods where the robustness and trustworthiness of such models are an integral part of the research. My Masterās thesis involved deep anomaly detection in text (full thesis).
