With Z-Inspection® we want to help to establish what we call a Mindful Use of AI (#MUAI). Certified Z-Inspection® Teaching Expert  also have a look at our: Trustworthy AI lab

My research interests are in Digital Humanities and Linked Open Data (LOD):

  • Machine Learning (NLP, Deep Learning / Image Recognition)
  • Trustworthy AI
  • Data Quality
  • Modelling uncertainty
  • Linking LOD
  • Big Data benchmarking / Performance optimizations
