Kianté Brantley

I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Kempner Institute and School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), Harvard University. My research focuses on problems at the intersection of machine learning and sequential decision-making, with the goal of improving the decision-making capabilities of foundation models. This involves studying, building, and improving techniques in reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and natural language processing.

I am always seeking candidates with a strong background in applied reinforcement learning, natural language processing, machine learning, and deep learning.
