My research interests are machine learning, data science and the overarching field of artificial intelligence. My theoretical work revolves around statistical learning theory. In my applied research, I use methods from machine learning and statistics for data analysis and knowledge extraction from high-dimensional, semi-structured data sets, with a focus on the life and health sciences.
