About

Hello kind stranger, my name is Florian Chen and I’m an incoming Masters student in Advanced Computer Science at the University of Oxford. In my studies, I am generally interested in theoretical foundations of machine learning.

Previously, I completed my Bachelors in Software & Information Engineering at TU Wien.
