Liam de la Cour

PhD Researcher

Liam de la Cour is a first-year PhD student in University College Cork, where he is being supervised by Dr. Derek Bridge. His research is in the field of Recommender Systems which is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence that seeks to predict the ‘rating’ or ‘preference’ a user would give to an item. These systems are deployed to help users overcome information overload, and help them find items that will delight them. He is particularly interested in how these systems can describe to the user why particular items will appeal to them. In his spare time, Liam can be found playing basketball, cooking, or meeting with friends.
