About

Prof. David Windridge holds the chair of Data Science and Machine Learning at the Department of Computer Science, Middlesex University, London, where he heads the AI and Machine Learning Research Group; he is also research lead for the Department of Computer Science as a whole. His research interests centre on practical and theoretical development in classical and quantum machine learning, generative AI, human-machine teaming & explainable AI. (He also has a former research interest in astronomy/astrophysics, having obtained his PhD in Cosmology at the University of Bristol, UK). He has authored around 200 academic publications in these areas and played a leading role in a number of large-scale machine-learning projects in academic and industrial research settings, as well as having won interdisciplinary research grants across a range of academic areas and application domains. He holds a visiting position at the University of Surrey, UK and sits on the editorial board of the Springer journal Quantum Machine Intelligence.
Heads the University’s Data Science activities.
