Research
Søren is a co-author on hadamard-08's cross-modal latent unification work. His contributions centre on the formal characterisation of cross-modal coherence — what it means for vision, language, and symbolic representations to share latent structure to a degree that produces transfer at scale.
He has been with alphabell since 2020 and is based in Aarhus. He is one of the world-models axis contributors who works most carefully at the boundary between the axis and the interpretability axis.
Background
Ph.D. mathematics, Aarhus University, 2014.
Prior to alphabell: Aarhus; Volterra Cognition; Wayfarer Institute.
