ML (Machine Learning) at Georgia Tech

The Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech (ML@GT) is home to many talented students from across campus, representing all six of Georgia Tech's colleges and the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI). These students have diverse backgrounds and a wide variety of interests both inside and outside of the classroom. Today, we'd like you to meet James Smith, a second-year machine learning Ph.D. student. Smith is a unique combination of athlete and academic; he runs at least one marathon each year while also working on ways to design machine learning algorithms that positively impact the world. Other degrees earned and from what institution: B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering, both from Auburn University (War Eagle!) Tell us about your research interests. Where might people be impacted by them in everyday life?
