Mitgliedschaften
I am member of several academic associations and act as a reviewer for journals and conferences.
Auszeichnungen
Seepferdchen, 1975.
Projekte
Projects/external funding is listed on ORCID. It's a short list.
Non-funded research projects and (student) working groups:
- PARIA, 2004-2008.
A long-term student project (eventually leading to the PACME architecture of concurrent processes). - Rela-X, 2010-2019.
Implementing libraries for efficient relation calculus. With a programminglanguage R-Lang, visualisation components for sorted matrices and graphs (bipartite, planar, Hasse) and an education interface. - COMPARE, 2024-.
Instead of statistic evaluation of surveys, we collect pairwise multidimensional comparisons. The goal is to compile this into a nominal set of data from which we induce lattice like evaluations of surveys. We intend to use rough set theory, formal concept analysis and inductive logic programming for elicitation of further knowledge hidden in survey answers. - "Sets, Structures, Semantics", 2018-.
A book on discrete mathematics and logics.
Publikationen
This list only contains relevant publications (not necessarily top-rated ones). For more references, see ORCID, RID, RG, dnb, and dblp. I've never been keen on writing a great number of papers and I don't know my h-index.
