I am a University Assistant (PostDoc) associated with the Christian Doppler Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence and Optimization for Planning and Scheduling headed by Nysret Musliu. I work on complex real-life scheduling problems using exact, heuristic and hybrid methods, and investigate the use of automated algorithm selection and configuration, and machine learning methods in this context.
