Bio
Ondrej Bajgar is a DPhil student in Bayesian machine learning at the University of Oxford, supervised by Michael A. Osborne, Alessandro Abate, and Konstantinos Gatsis. He studied mathematics at the University of Warwick and subsequently spent three years as a Research Scientist at IBM Watson, working on machine learning for text understanding and dialogue systems. He then joined the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford as a Senior Research Scholar, where he worked on AI safety for approximately two years before beginning his doctorate. His current research focuses on active inverse reinforcement learning, developing methods to align AI decision-making with human preferences by strategically selecting informative demonstrations. He has also published work on negative human rights as a principled framework for long-term AI safety and regulation, co-authored with Jan Hořeňovský in the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research. He received LTFF funding to support his AI safety PhD at Oxford.
