Robin Walters is an assistant professor in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University. Robin’s research seeks to develop a fundamental understanding of the role symmetry plays in deep learning and to exploit this to improve the generalization and data efficiency of deep learning methods. This includes designing equivariant neural networks, symmetry discovery methods, and creating a theory of symmetry for model parameters. He has applied these methods to improve models in domains with complex dynamics including climate science, transportation, and robotics.
