Smart Analytics & Reinforcement Learning
The team Smart Analytics & Reinforcement Learning focuses on application-oriented basic research in the fields of machine learning, statistics and control theory. The applications cover a wide spectrum, both in the industrial and digital area, and enable new approaches to solutions for various current problems in process and decision optimisation.
Postdoc-Position: Simon Hirländer
Dr. Simon Hirländer is leading the team „Smart Analytics & Reinforcement Learning“. He has several years of experience in research in the international environment of CERN, where he also obtained his PhD. In his recent work he was concentrating on the optimization of the performance of the CERN particle accelerator complex using machine-learning techniques, especially applied reinforcement learning.
Masterstudent: Olga Mironova (DM-Hirländer)
Olga Mironova obtained a bachelor’s degree in mathematics and later a master’s degree in economics. In her professional career, she has been involved in various projects using machine learning to forecast sales and evaluate promotional efficiency for one of the largest FMCG companies. She is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Data Science at PLUS and working as a project assistant focusing on Smart Analytics & Reinforcement Learning.
