Professor Özgür Şimşek

Özgür’s research is on artificial intelligence and machine learning, with emphasis on reinforcement learning. She is particularly interested in open-ended learning in complex, dynamic, uncertain environments. Areas of interest include: 1) Statistical properties of natural environments that enable fast, effective learning, 2) Autonomous construction of hierarchies of reusable skills, 3) Intrinsic motivation and curiosity.
