Practical, Bachelor and Master Projects

I am constantly looking for motivated students for Practical, Bachelor and Master projects in the field of large-scale combinatorial optimization with applications in computer vision and machine learning. Apart from the usual formal requirements to start a project I expect
  • An excellent mark for my lecture "Optimization for Machine Learning" or similar background in integer linear programming and combinatorial optimization.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and C++ and ability to work with a third-party code.
The best candidates may get a HiWi position.

PhD Student Positions

I am constantly looking for motivated PhD students. Requirements are similar to those for Master students:
  • An excellent mark for my lecture "Optimization for Machine Learning" or similar background in integer linear programming and combinatorial optimization.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and C++ and ability to work with a third-party code.
For a successful PhD under my guidance you are required to have strong mathematical as well as programming skills. From my side I offer a tight supervision and a full-time TV-L 13 position (for unknown candidates after a trial period).
