- Education: PhD and undergraduate degree from Cambridge University
- Appointment: Joined UCL in 1991 (postdoc), Lecturer in 1992
Research interests include:
- Trust and security in networked systems (co-founder of computational trust)
- Security of industrial control systems
- AI/ML applications in security and causal discovery
- Multi-agent reinforcement learning and moral behavior modeling
- Gas sensor fabrication and deployment for diverse applications
Recent publications focus on feature selection for cybersecurity, moral alignment in LLM agents, trust-based consensus algorithms, and causal discovery using reinforcement learning. Collaborations include co-authors like Westphal, Musolesi, and Tennant. Applications span healthcare (dementia, JIA), ecology (endangered species in Botswana), and environmental monitoring (CO distribution, meth lab detection).
