Timur Chabuk PhD Student Department of Computer Science University of Maryland, College Park [last name]@cs.umd.edu About Me I'm a fourth year graduate student at the University of Maryland, College Park, currently pursuing a PhD in Computer Science. I am interested in biologially-inspired computing, with a focus on evolutionary computation and neural computation. My current research involves using causal knowledge to guide evolutionary computation for design problem.
