معرفی
Dr. Hong Ge serves as a Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge and holds a Fellowship at Darwin College. He maintains a dual affiliation with The Alan Turing Institute where his research centers on probabilistic programming. His work develops foundational methodologies for machine learning and intelligence with emphasis on Bayesian inference and decision-making under uncertainty.
His academic background includes:
- MSc at the University of Edinburgh supervised by Chris Williams
- PhD at the University of Cambridge supervised by Zoubin Ghahramani
Dr. Ge specializes in Bayesian nonparametrics, probabilistic programming, and neural networks. His research advances computational frameworks for uncertainty quantification and large-scale probabilistic modeling, with applications spanning decision theory and Gaussian processes. He bridges theoretical machine learning with practical implementations through open-source software development.
He has mentored 12 researchers including current advisees Neel Alex (co-supervised with David Krueger) and Wenlin Chen (co-supervised with Miguel Hernández-Lobato and Bernhard Schölkopf), and former members such as Alexander Terenin (now at Cornell University) and Yongchao Huang (now Lecturer at Aberdeen University). His group contributed to UK government pandemic response through the Turing-RSS Health Data Lab.
Dr. Ge leads the Turing.jl team developing probabilistic programming tools including AdvancedHMC.jl for Hamiltonian Monte Carlo, NestedSamplers.jl, and AbstractGPs.jl for Gaussian processes. He co-organized the CAPP Workshop on Probabilistic Programming and ACMLL Workshop on Machine Learning Languages.
