My Name is Manus. I am a budding researcher with a varied range of interests and skills. At the moment, I am particularly interested in plasticity in deep reinforcement learning (RL), but also (possibly) related phenomena like policy churn, catastrophic forgetting. Broader interests are reinforcement learning, computer vision, mathematics, programming to name a few. I attended Trinity College Dublin where I graduated with a masters and bachelors in engineering.
Currently:
- Intern Research Engineer at Instadeep (large-scale RL, protein language models, active learning)
Previously:
- Intern Research Engineer at Sony AI (offline RL, continuous control, robotics)
- Intern Machine Learning Engineer at Provizio (convolutional/recurrent/transformer architectures, supersampling for pointcloud data)
- Research Assistant TCD Electronic Engineering Department (cyberphysical systems, optimal control)
- Team Lead for Reinforcement Learning in Formula Trinity Autonomous
