Hi there 👋
My name is Patrick & I'm currently a Master student in Information Systems at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany.
💼 I work part-time as a Junior Researcher at the Applied AI in Services Lab @ Karlsruhe Digital Service Research and Innovation Hub (KSRI). I am currently working on the BMWK-funded research project Nachhaltige intelligente Sanierungsmaßnahmen (NaiS) in the construction industry, where I apply deep learning computer vision methods (object detection & semantic segmentation) and geometric optimizations to digitize analog data such as floor plans.
💡 My core interests are centered around AI, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Multimodal AI & Document Understanding. This is also reflected in my academic curriculum, which aims to specialize in these areas.
💾 Recognizing data as one of the key components of any modern use case, some of my skillset is related to data understanding, data curation & synthetic data.
📚 It's still early in my career, so there's still a lot to learn, but I'm driven to connect my studies to work and impact in the real world. Bringing industry and research together to foster innovation is something I strongly believe in.
🧑🏽💻 Given my technical focus, I enjoy & thrive in developing applications. Strategically designing end-to-end workflows is one of my strengths. In addition, I strive for proper human-computer interaction to enhance performance.
Here I'll show you some highlights from past projects. Please keep in mind that all of this is still under construction & will be updated irregularly.
As part of a university capstone project I participated in a team of students working on improving the individual thermal comfort of people working from home with a smart home system present. As part of this project, I developed a classifier that predicts thermal comfort and makes decisions accordingly. To verify the performance of our systems, I created a simulation that applied our decision making process at certain time intervals & adjusted the simulation accordingly. Here's the final result visualizing the simulation:
