I am a professor for computer science, with research focus in machine learning theory and computational statistics. I am also a fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems. For family reasons, I currently work part-time.
NEW: Our cluster "Machine learning: New Perspectives for Science" has been granted! This means a huge investment in machine learning research in Tuebingen for the next 7 years, including new professors and many new independent research groups.
Research. My current focus is on theoretical questions about unsupervised machine learning, in particular the statistical analysis of algorithms on random graphs and ordinal data analysis. Publications Our research seminar
