Dr Frank Soboczenski
Lecturer

Interests

I am interested in machine learning (uncertainty quantification), natural-language processing (LLMs & summarisation) and advanced applications of quantum machine learning mainly but not limited to the domains of healthcare and space research.

I hold an affiliate scientist position at King's College London supported by the NVIDIA GPU Grant Program.
