Hello ๐
Iโm Sinclair, and Iโm currently pursuing a Masterโs of Applied Computing at the University of Toronto. I complete my degree requirements in December 2024 and will receive my diploma in May 2024. Iโm doing research with NVIDIA, exploring self-supervised learning for autonomous vehicles. In May 2023, I completed my Bachelorโs of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, with 6 internships.
My current (2024 Q3) research interests include:
- ๐๏ธ Self-supervised learning and unsupervised learning
- ๐ Robotics (specifically autonomous vehicles)
- ๐ ML for audio (specifically spoken language processing)
- ๐จ AI for creative and artistic applications
More generally, Iโm interested in exploring creative research ideas that redefine problems or disrupt entrenched approaches. Iโm most excited by research driven by real-world problems, not benchmarks.
Iโm not interested in the following research topics:
- ๐ช weapons or defense technology
- ๐ฑ recommendation algorithms that exacerbate social media addiction
