Gábor Bartók
I am a Postdoctaral Fellow at
ETH
Zürich in the
Learning
& Adaptive Systems Group with
Andreas Krause.
I finished my PhD at the
University
of Alberta in 2012, under the supervision of
Csaba
Szepesvári. I was a member of the
Reinforcement Learning and
Artificial Intelligence research group.

My research interest is machine learning. My goal is to
better understand the theoretical limitations of machine
learning. Currently I am focusing on online learning. See my
publication list.
