Site overview
This is the personal website of Wouter Caarls. I'm an assistant professor at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-RIO), where I work on reinforcement learning, continuing my work as a postdoc at the Delft University of Technology (TUD) and the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ). Previously, I worked at the MPI for biophysical chemistry in Goettingen, Germany on the automation of a confocal microscope. I did my PhD at the Delft University of Technology, on the subject of intelligent cameras. You may view my past and current scientific publications here. I also wrote some software that might prove useful, which is described here. If you know the right incantations, you may also view my collection of pictures, here. Finally, a number of links to interesting places around the web is available here.
