Ege Erdogan
PhD Student at the University of Amsterdam
Hi! I am a PhD student at the University of Amsterdam with Ana Lucic as part of the SIAS, CLC, and AI4Science groups.
My main research interest is mechanistic interpretability with a particular focus towards AI4Science. I am interested in two interrelated questions: how can interpretability of ML models facilitate scientific discovery, and how can scientific knowledge inform the design of interpretability methods?
I previously did my MSc at the Technical University of Munich and wrote my thesis on geometric generative models of neural network weights, advised by David Rügamer and Bastian Rieck.
