Research
My research interests include Artificial Intelligence, especially Utility-Guided
Search, the application of AI to engineering design, including the generation
and selection of analysis models, and Machine Learning.
Over the last few years, my research has focused mainly on methods that
use estimates of utility to guide search. In particular I have looked
at search in trees of alternatives generated by stochastic optimizers such
as Genetic Algorithms. To learn more about this work, see:
