Christopher Iliffe Sprague developed core active learning and uncertainty quantification frameworks for the alan-turing-institute/autoemulate repository, focusing on robust emulation and streamlined user onboarding. He designed and implemented ensemble modeling and Gaussian process modules using Python and PyTorch, enabling predictive mean and covariance outputs for uncertainty-aware workflows. His work included refactoring class hierarchies, enhancing API flexibility, and integrating new backends such as DropoutTorchBackend to support extensible modeling. Christopher also prioritized code quality through comprehensive documentation, type hinting, and linting, ensuring maintainability. These contributions expanded modeling capabilities, improved performance analysis, and reduced onboarding time for users and downstream development teams.

July 2025 performance summary for alan-turing-institute/autoemulate: Focused on expanding Gaussian-like support, API/backends, and code quality to deliver measurable business value through better predictability, flexibility, and maintainability. Delivered features include Gaussian-like handling enhancements in Ensemble (GaussianEmulator inheritance; standardized Gaussian-like output handling; generalized GaussianLike type checks), API enhancements for Ensemble to accept a sequence of emulators and integration of DropoutTorchBackend (with alignment of DropoutEnsemble and MLP), and substantial documentation and linting improvements. These changes improve uncertainty estimation capabilities, backend extensibility, and developer velocity by reducing onboarding time and maintenance risk. Technologies demonstrated include PyTorch backend integration, object-oriented extension of Ensemble, type-system refinements, and proactive code quality practices.
