Andrew Wood

I am a 1st year Computer Science PhD student at Boston University, advised by Peter Chin in the Learning, Intelligence, and Signal Processing Laboratory. I am interested in Machine Intelligence, particularly in graph learning, computational neuroscience, and reinforcement learning.

I received my Masters degree in Computer Science from the University of Notre Dame in March of 2019, where I was advised by Collin McMillan. I worked at the intersection of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Software Engineering (SE) to develop virtual assistant technology for programmers. You can download a copy of my Masters thesis here. My committee was: David Chiang, Collin McMillan, Jane Cleland-Huang.
