This is an exciting time for our research group! This months (April 2023) our group grew considerably; in total three new PhD students joined. Julian Dierkes and Wadie Skaf had their first day of work on 1 April while Henning Duwe started today. Wadie will focus on AutoAI for time series. Julian is excited about AutoAI methods for reinforcement learning. Henning will explore two different topics in the beginning: first, automating coding with large language models and second Neural Network Verification. We are sure that the three will be an enrichment for the ADA Group!
In the beginning of March, Maddy Ruppé joined our group. During her work at the International Office of RWTH Aachen University, she discovered her passion for event management and international cooperation, which she will put to good use as a research network coordinator at AIM.
Both Tarek Junied and Marc Thiemann have been with us as student employees since the end of October. Both Tarek and Marc will support us in various task from chair construction to implementation of new features in our software libraries.
Marcel has joined the growing AIM team as our second student worker. Doing a master’s degree in computer science at RWTH Aachen he will assist in the chair construction and will work on the Sparkle platform.
In the beginning of July, Marie Anastacio joined AIM as a postdoc. Before that, she did her PhD with Holger Hoos at Leiden University (The Netherlands) about automated algorithm configuration and a Master’s degree in Trois-Rivières (Canada) on natural language processing. She is also co-founder of the CLAIRE Rising Researcher Network. During her Postdoc, she aims at participating in more multi-disciplinary projects as well as continuing her research about automated Artificial Intelligence.
Malte is our first student worker. Studying for a master’s degree in computer science at RWTH Aachen he will sparkle our team.
Our new Chair for AI Methodology (AIM; Informatik 14) is under heavy construction! We are a small group at the moment: the academic part consists of Prof. Dr. Holger Hoos as the chair holder and Dr. Jakob Bossek as assistant professor (Akademischer Rat). Andrea Gibbels supports us in administration and Dipl. Inform. Willi Geffers keeps all technical systems running. At the moment of writing we are still very busy with all kinds of administrative tasks, e.g., ordering furniture for our rooms at Theaterstraße 35-39, organising teaching, getting familiar with the workflows at the RWTH.
