Julian Chingoma

I am a PhD Candidate at the University of Amsterdam as part of the COMSOC Group at the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC). I am part of the VICI project on Collective Information under the supervision of Ronald de Haan and Ulle Endriss.

Both my BSc and MSc in Computer Science were completed at the University of Cape Town, with the latter done under the supervision of Thomas Meyer.

My research interests are mainly in Collective Decision Making and topics within Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR) such as defeasible reasoning and normative reasoning.
