Jan Schneider

I am an ELLIS PhD student supervised by Dieter Büchler (University of Alberta, Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems), Ingmar Posner (University of Oxford), and Bernhard Schölkopf (Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems). My research interests generally lie in reinforcement learning and robotics. More concretely, I am interested in the role of action representations in reinforcement learning, discovering and exploiting structure in the learning process, and applying reinforcement learning to muscular robots for solving dynamic tasks.
