Edoardo Ponti

Lecturer in Natural Language Processing, University of Edinburgh
I am an assistant professor in Natural Language Processing at the University of Edinburgh and a visiting professor at NVIDIA. Previously, I was a visiting postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University and a postdoctoral fellow in computer science at Mila - Quebec AI Institute in Montreal. In 2021, I obtained a PhD from the University of Cambridge, St John’s College. Once upon a time I studied typological and historical linguistics at the University of Pavia.

My research has been featured on the Economist and Scientific American. The main research foci of my lab are:

- Modular deep learning: I am interested in designing neural architectures that route information to specialised modules (e.g., sparse subnetworks). This facilitates systematic generalisation and conditional computation. It also helps control the model’s behaviour, e.g., mitigating its hallucinations.

- Efficient architectures: The goal is to make language models more efficient by compressing their intermediate representations and memory. As a side effect, this also makes them break free from tokenizers and learn hierarchical abstractions over raw data.

- Computational typology: I wish to understand how language varies, across the world and its cultures, with the help of computational tools. Multimodal models in particular give us an powerful tool to study how form depends on grounded, embodied representations of meaning and function.

My research earned a Google Research Faculty Award. I received two Best Paper Awards at EMNLP 2021 and RepL4NLP 2019. I am a board member of SIGTYP, the ACL special interest group for computational typology, a member of the European Lab for Learning and Intelligent Systems (ELLIS), and part of the TACL journal editorial team.

Edwin Burns

Senior Lecturer in Psychology, Edge Hill University
If you think you or someone you know suffers from prosopagnosia/faceblindness (i.e., regular difficulties when recognising faces they should), then please get in touch with me if you would like to be tested for the condition at [email protected]

I’m a psychologist who is interested in vision in those with intact face recognition skills, neuropsychological (i.e., brain damage) and neurodevelopmental (i.e., lifelong problems in certain aspects of cognition) groups. A significant proportion of this work has focused on individuals who suffer from developmental prosopagnosia, a lifelong condition characterised by severe difficulties recognising facial identity. Unfortunately, most of the people who believe they have prosopagnosia will not receive a diagnosis using current approaches to testing. I hope to remedy this through my latest research (Burns et al., 2022). I also do work with aphantasia (people who can't visualise imagery in their mind) and developmental co-ordination disorder (people who have trouble with movement).

I am also interested in how we perceive a face when it is viewed with other faces nearby. This can often lead to a phenomenon called a cheerleader or friend effect, where the presence of others can make us appear more attractive or trustworthy. My recent paper (Burns et al., 2021, Cognition) drew many of these effects together in a framework that will help authors understand the myriad of influences on such phenomena.

Please get in touch with me at [email protected] if you have any questions about my work, or would like to study for a fully funded PhD (open to candidates worldwide). PhD applications are often open near closing dates in January or summer.
