I am a PhD student at the department of computer science of the University of Freiburg at the Chair of Algorithms and Data Structures. Before I started my PhD at the University of Freiburg I worked at IBM Research & Development for several years. During that time I studied at the University of Freiburg and received my Master's Degree in computer science.

Our team at the chair of Algorithms and Data Structures is building a semantic full-text search engine that allows combining full-text search with structured information from ontologies. In this context my main interests are the natural language processing required and the efficient processing of queries. In general, I am also interested in machine learning as well as (of course) algorithms and data structures.

I also placed 3rd in the CIKM Cup 2014, a machine learning competition on query intent detection. Here is a poster of my approach.
