Your Name

Eda Bayram, PhD

About

I am an AI Researcher in the Smart Network Lab (SNI) at the Huawei Ireland Research Center in Dublin . Under the Network Digital Twin team, I research and engineer efficient and scalable machine learning models for simulation of telecom networks. Previously, I worked at Accenture Labs in Dublin, focusing on graph machine learning for biomedical knowledge discovery, where I contributed development of link prediction and question answering systems.

I hold a PhD from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), where my doctoral research centered on representation learning for multi-relational data. More recently, I pursued my interest in Cognitive Science with a Master’s degree from University College Dublin (UCD). This program offered me the chance to engage with a wide range of cognitive theories under the guidance of Prof. Fred Cummins and Prof. Keith Wilson. For my graduation project, I conducted a comparative study on the entanglement of perception and action—examining how predictive processing, as advanced by Andy Clark, contrasts with the enactive theory of cognition advocated by Ezequiel Di Paolo, with a particular focus on proactive modes of perception and action.

I am influenced by the illusionist stance in the theory of consciousness, most notably articulated by Keith Frankish. I am also a fan of the podcast series Mind Chat made by Philip Goff and Keith Frankish.
