We are delighted to congratulate Carl Edwards for being accepted at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) where he will pursue a PhD.

Carl visited DDIS as an undergraduate research intern during the fall term of 2018 in the scope of the EuroScholars student exchange program.

During his stay at DDIS he worked on associating images with knowledge graph entities. He worked on building a dataset and extending our previous models to that new domain.

In his future studies, he is interested in continuing work on combining data of different types and applying them to accomplish interdomain tasks. He believes this will be critical for creating more generalizable models.

We wish Carl all the best for his future career.
