Dr Sebastian Sardina
School of Computer Science and IT
(Artificial Intelligence)
I came to RMIT as I wanted to live in Australia and diversify my research in artificial intelligence.
Besides the quality of life in Melbourne, I stay here for the excellent research environment after enjoying great support during my post-doc position.
I mostly work on two sub-areas of artificial intelligence.
I have now been awarded a 3 year research grant for developing techniques to combine lots of small devices into a complex system.
New techniques in artificial intelligence are making a huge impact within the field of computer science.
We are now addressing problems that, ten years ago, seemed impossible.
Being part of this new wave is both inspiring and exciting.
