Alessandro is Professor of Verification & Control at the Department of Computer Science, where he also leads the Oxford Control & Verification group (OXCAV) - please visit his group’s webpage at: www.oxcav.org
Jiarui is a departmental lecturer at the Department of Computer Science. He was previously a DPhil student in the department and returned in early 2022 after doing a postdoc at Max Planck Institute for Software Systems. He is broadly interested in topics in game theory, multi-agent systems, and AI.
This year the AAAI conference received a record 9,251 submissions, of which 9,020 were reviewed. Based on a thorough and rigorous review process 1,349 papers were accepted.
