CV

Forschungsinteressen

Meine Forschungsinteressen liegen hauptsächlich in den genannten Themenbereichen:

  • Statistisch-relationale KI (Statistical relational AI, StarAI), besonders probabilistische Inferenz in relationalen Domänen
  • Textverständnis, besonders Annotationen und Kontextdarstellungen
  • mensch-bewusste KI, besonders Online Entscheidungen durch mensch-bewusste Agenten

Meine Doktorarbeit gehört zum Bereich StarAI und hat den Lifted Junction Tree Algorithmus (LJT) als zentrales Thema. Nähere Informationen zu LJT finden Sie hier.

Lehre

Meine aktuelle Lehrtätigkeit finden Sie hier.
