Anastasia Krouglova

I am a PhD Student at Nerf - empowered by imec, KU Leuven and VIB. The focus of my research lays in the field of computational neuroscience, which is the investement of brain function using mathematical tools and machine learning techniques.

We are developing and using computational methods to investigate the role of different scales — from membrane and synaptic biophysics to connectivity patterns — in conferring robustness to neural systems.

Computer Science

Specialization: Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
For my Master's thesis, I developed a framework for the multipurpose description and evaluation of audio signals under the supervision of Geraint Wiggins. This framework allows inference from different subtasks and proposes a general improvement in the learnability of machine learning models. Access the thesis by following this link.

Academic Journey
I had the opportunity to undertake a research internship at ETH Zürich and to participate in an exchange program at Chalmers University of Technology.

    I wanted to acquire more skills in the VFX industry and enrolled for the low- and high-poly modelling classes in 3ds Max from the DAE campus in order to get access to the 3D animation course in Maya. I studied classic animation based on the book Animator's survival kit. The course finished with animating techniques of face expressions, body language and animals.

Other passions & interests

⛸   Figure skating

I still actively participate in Belgian skating competitions and take pleasure in coaching young skaters. Check the instagram of my brother for a glimpse of some fascinating ice skating performances.

🎹  Jazz Piano & Vocals

I formed a music group with my friends in a slightly different genre I was used to. Curious to explore our music? Feel free to visit our website for more information and to listen to our tracks.

🎬   Photo- & videography

During my internship at a video production studio, I discovered a deep fascination for the world of videomaking and photography. Explore a selection of my portfolio
