I'm Kyle Simpson Orcid Link, a PhD student in Computing Science at the University of Glasgow supervised by Professor Dimitrios Pezaros. I work within the Glasgow Systems Section on automated intrusion detection and prevention.
I take interest in research of networks, reinforcement learning, computer graphics and combinatorial search, and enjoy hobbyist game development.
I love solving hard problems in new fields—feel free to email me at any time.
