Vice Chancellor's Office
Overview
I am the Pro Vice-Chancellor for Research Innovation and Enterprise at Cardiff University and a member of the University's Executive Board.
My personal research and innovation agenda concerns the intersection of human and machine intelligence. This has included:
- using computation and data to model human behaviour;
- human-machine interaction, behaviour and decision-making;
- the future of AI, creativity and innovation.
This work is interdisciplinary, including engineering, sociology and psychology. I am currently looking at issues including ensembles or "teaming" of AI models and aspects of AI and human behaviour in visual problems.

Research
Recent research highlights include:
- modelling the interplay between cognitive dissonance and evolution of social networks;
- identifying social comparison as a fundamental computational concept for self-organisation in social dilemmas;
- understanding how prejudicial groups of artificial agents can easily establish themselves and cause disruption;
- determining common patterns of human behaviour in navigating smartphone applications "in-the-wild";
- understanding the relationship between street-level mobility and individual personality differences;
- insights into smartphone usage and addiction through user-app interactions.
I'm currently interested in approaches to teams of AI in decision-making, or AI ensembles, and human behaviour and AI in assessing visual issues.
