Machine Learning aims to develop algorithms which automatically learn to recognize complex patterns in data, and use these to make intelligent decisions.

The Machine Learning group forms part of the Department of Computer Science, University of Sheffield. It has gained an international reputation for research into the development of machine learning techniques and their application to a diverse range of modelling tasks.

Major research themes in the ML group include:

The group is always interested in good candidates for research student positions. Please contact one of the group members for further details.

The Machine Learning group has collaborative links with the Speech, Natural Language Processing and Computational Biology groups.
