About me

I'm an Assistant Professor within the Computational Intelligence group, Artificial Intelligence Section, Department of Computer Science at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

My main research focus is in the area of autonomous adaptive systems, (multi-)agent systems, collective intelligence, swarm robotics, data mining and evolutionairy computing. I apply this research in various projects, including an EU project, namely Symbrion. Furthermore, I also participate in the EU coordination project AWARE. For a list of my publications, click here.

I'm also involved in teaching several courses related to Artificial Intelligence and Computational Intelligence. In addition, I'm the Mastercoordinator for the various Artifical Intelligence programs.

Before starting as an assistant professor in the Computational Intelligence group, I fulfilled the same position within the Agent Systems group focusing on multi-agent systems in combination with ambient intelligence. I worked in various EU project, whereby I have been the joint coordinator (together with Michel Klein) of ICT4Depression. Before starting there in 2007, I've been a visiting researcher at the MAGNET group, University of Minnesota during August and September 2007. I've obtained my PhD from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam as well. On June 18th 2007 to be precise. The thesis is titled Modeling of Change in Multi-Agent Organizations, which I've written under supervision of Catholijn Jonker and Jan Treur. More information concerning the thesis can be found here.

For more details on me, and my research and teaching activities, see the information below, and also my CV.
