Teaching

I am currently (2024) involved in teaching two courses:

• I coordinate the Msc. course Data Mining Techniques
• I taught a guest lecture for the Msc. course Machine Learning & Reasoning for Health

I have previously been involved in organising the Reinforcement Learning Summer School, read more in this blog post.

For a (historical) over of Bsc. and Msc. thesis I have served as supervised, see below.
In case you are interested in my vision on supervision, see this blog post for some of my notes.
