Dr. Dietmar Hareter studied Technical Mathematics, concentration in “Mathematics in Science”, with a focus on statistics as well as Actuarial Mathematics at the Vienna University of Technology. He is a Certified Actuary in the Actuarial Association of Austria (AVÖ) and has been involved in the development and implementation of forecasting models for more than 15 years.
Predoc-Position: Sebastian Baron (AI4GREEN: Borgelt)
Sebastian Baron MSc studied economics at the Leopold-Franzens-University Innsbruck and subsequently obtained his Master’s degree in the field of data science at the Paris-Lodron-University Salzburg. Within his doctoral thesis, deep learning methods are used for signal processing classification.
Predoc-Position: Nicolas Dietrich (Data Science PhD Position, Red Bull: Trutschnig)
Nicolas Dietrich MSc completed both the Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes in mathematics at PLUS. In his Master’s thesis he worked on the existence of solutions for partial differential equations. In the meantime, he is doing his PhD in the field of dependency modelling and pattern recognition and is working on the convergence behaviour of copulae.
Predoc-Position: Patrick Langthaler (IDA Lab II, STIWA: Trutschnig)
Patrick Langthaler completed his Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in mathematics at PLUS with a focus on statistics. Since then, he has been working on various projects at the PMU and the Salzburg Provincial Hospitals. As part of his doctorate, he is researching non-parametric statistical methods.
Predoc-Position: Lea Maislinger (LIVE: Ruprecht, Trutschnig)
Lea Maislinger MSc completed her Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in mathematics at PLUS and is currently pursuing her PhD in mathematics. She also works as a project assistant in the field of dependency modelling.
Predoc-Position: Fabian Köhnke (IDA Lab II: Borgelt)
Fabian Köhnke MSc studied economics at the Hamburger Fern-Hochschule and then completed a master’s degree in Data Science at PLUS. In his master’s thesis, he researched a sub-area of evolutionary algorithms, specifically genetic network programming, which is now the topic of his doctoral thesis.
Bachelorstudent: Kajsa Björkbom (IDA Lab II: Trutschnig)
Kajsa Miho Björkbom is currently studying for a Bachelor’s degree in Artificial Intelligence at PLUS and is a project member in the IDA Lab.
