Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLeander Kurscheidt is a Ph.D. student at the April Lab, University of Edinburgh, specializing in tractable probabilistic machine learning with a focus on deriving and interpreting challenging integrals. With 11 years of hands-on experience spanning research assistantships in autonomous driving, outlier detection, and transfer learning, he blends deep theoretical rigor with practical programming skills. He co-founded and organized tech initiatives (hackathons, talks, bootcamps) and helped run ML-KA’s theory-paper discussion group, reflecting a commitment to community-building and teaching. Comfortable turning proofs into code, he pursues clarity as much as state-of-the-art results, and outside research he’s an avid listener of electronic music and fan of media-art installations.
