Curriculum Vitae

From 1997 to 2004 I studied at the Institute for Natural Language Processing at the University of Stuttgart. In 2000-2001 I spent an academic year at the University of Edinburgh (UK) as Erasmus Exchange Student. I did my Diploma Thesis on "Scale Perception in Humans, its Normalization via the Mellin Image and Footprints for Classification" at the Center for the Neural Basis of Hearing (CNBH) at the University of Cambridge in 2004.

In 2004 I joined EML Research to pursue my PhD with is supervised by Prof. Görz of the University of Erlangen and Dr. Michael Strube of the NLP Group at EML Research. The topic of my thesis is the automatic summarisation of multi party dialogues (meetings). In 2006/2007 I was a scholarship holder of the Klaus Tschira Foundation.

In 2008 I joined the European Media Laboratory as a Software Engineer.
