Publications

We do research in both theoretical machine learning, as well as applications of machine learning in various domains, including medical, astronomy, autonomous driving, and more.

Recent publications:
05/2023: "Drug Discovery under Covariate Shift with Domain-Informed Prior Distributions over Functions" (Leo Klarner, Tim G. J. Rudner, Michael Reutlinger, Torsten Schindler, Garrett M Morris, Charlotte Deane, Yee Whye Teh).
05/2023: "B-Learner: Quasi-Oracle Bounds on Heterogeneous Causal Effects Under Hidden Confounding" (Miruna Oprescu, Jacob Dorn, Marah Ghoummaid, Andrew Jesson, Nathan Kallus, Uri Shalit).
05/2023: "DiscoBAX - Discovery of optimal intervention sets in genomic experiment design" (Clare Lyle, Arash Mehrjou, Pascal Notin, Andrew Jesson, Stefan Bauer, Yarin Gal, Patrick Schwab).

Reproducibility and Code

One of our lab's missions is to contribute to the reproducibility effort. Here we provide code for our own research, as well as reproductions of works by others (e.g. ones we implemented as baselines as part of our own research).

Recent code release:
05/2022: Tranception: protein fitness prediction with autoregressive transformers and inference-time retrieval (Pascal Notin).
12/2021: Improving black-box optimization in VAE latent space using decoder uncertainty (Pascal Notin).
11/2021: Disease variant prediction with deep generative models of evolutionary data (Pascal Notin).
07/2020: OATomobile: A research framework for autonomous driving (Angelos Filos, Panagiotis Tigas).
07/2020: Slurm for Machine Learning (Joost van Amersfoort).

Group Members

We are researchers coming from varied backgrounds, including Computer Science, Maths & Stats, Engineering, and Physics.

We come from academia (Oxford, Cambridge, MILA, Manchester, U of Amsterdam, U of Toronto, U of Cape Town, Yale, and others) and industry (Google, DeepMind, Twitter, Qualcomm, and startups).

We include 5 Rhodes Scholars, 3 Clarendon Scholars, 3 DeepMind Scholars, one cancer research UK Scholar, with our students funded by many additional sources (AIMS CDT, Cyber CDT, industry, and more). If you'd like to join us take a look here.
