I have an acknowlegdement page in the thesis to thank my supervisor, my collaborators so far and some senior researchers. I wanted to put these people's names here again (in alphabetical order), without them I can never have finished this thesis and many of my other papers.
John Bradshaw, Thang Bui, Yarin Gal, Zoubin Ghahramani, Wenbo Gong, Daniel Hernandez-Lobato, Jose Miguel Hernandez-Lobato, Qiang Liu, Chao Ma, Stephan Mandt, Cuong Nguyen, Sebastian Nowozin, Ulrich Paquet, Mark Rowland, Yash Sharma and Martin Szummer.
Of course I would like to thank my fantastic PhD supervisor Rich Turner, for his detailed guidance in my first two years, and his generosity of giving me complete freedom of research in the last three years.
