Assistant Professor (Lecturer) in Computer Science
John Warwicker is an Assistant Professor in Computer Science at Lancaster University Leipzig. Previously, he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Institute of Operations Research at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, after obtaining his PhD in Theoretical Computer Science at the University of Sheffield, UK.
His research lies on the intersection of optimisation and machine learning; specifically, seeking advancements in efficiency, reliability and transparency for prediction and classification approaches, including neural networks. He is interested in understanding how and why these approaches work and using this information to enhance their performance. He has further interests in the theoretical analyses of evolutionary and heuristic algorithms.
