About Me Projects Résumé

About Me

Software Engineer with focus on machine learning, distributed systems and a little bit of IT security. In addition, I am quite experienced with mobile app development.

ML

For machine learning projects I use Python with Tensorflow or PyTorch. Sometimes in combination with Jupyter.

Code

I like Swift and Kotlin and have experience in mobile app development as well as macOS, Linux, and Windows.

Tools

My daily friends are git, TDD and CI. I have experience with Docker, Jenkins as well as the Atlassian software development tools.

Featured Projects

Uncertainty estimation in Deep Learning

Uncertainty estimation in Deep Learning

  • PyTorch
  • MC Dropout

In a practical course at TUM we analyzed Monte Carlo dropout (Gal et al., 2015) for estimating model uncertainity using two different retinal scan datasets (segmentation).

Masters Thesis

Masters Thesis

  • Reinforcement Learning (Policy Gradients)
  • Generative Adversarial Imitation Learning

Title: Deep Inverse Reinforcement Learning for trajectory planning in fully-autonomous vehicles, received best possible grade. Under NDA, therefore only abstract available.

Deep Drones

Deep Drones

  • OpenCV
  • Caffe

In 2016 we made a drone fly semi-autonomsly. We used OpenCV and a CNN to make the drone follow an authorized face in front of it.

MyriadHub

MyriadHub

  • Crowd Sourcing
  • HCI

In 2016 during my abroad semester at Stanford I worked in the HCI group under Michael Bernstein directly supervised by Nicolas Kokkalis on a website called MyriadHub. MyriadHub is a crowd source based email tool to send large campaigns and collect and analyse responses.

Activity Recognition

Activity Recognition

  • Swift
  • Dynamic Time Warping

In 2015 we developed an Apple Watch application for activity and exercise recognition for eGym during the MPD course at CDTM. For the recognition I ported the Gesture Recognition Toolkit to the Apple Watch OS and we trained a Dynamic Time Warping model to classify movements (accelerometer values).

  • Android USB Host
  • File Systems (e.g. FAT32)

In 2014 I developed an open source library for my bachelor thesis to access USB mass storage devices from Android phones and tablets without rooting your device. This included impleneting the SCSI command set as well as FAT32 in Java. The library is used in a couple of other projects, like AnExplorer, and in ongoing development.

Midi software

Midi software

  • C++
  • MIDI

Since 2012 I am regularly freelancing for Bome Software a small company based in Munich. I worked on the MidiTranslator as well as the BomeBox which is a OpenWRT/Carambola based all in one midi router.
