Manuel Haussmann

I'm a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense, where I work in the group of Melih Kandemir. I did my PhD at Heidelberg University with Fred Hamprecht and Melih, and spent two great years at Aalto University in Finland working with Samuel Kaski and Harri Lähdesmäki. My research focus is on Bayesian probabilistic machine learning with applications ranging from physics over health data to reinforcement learning. I am a reviewer for most major machine learning conferences (AAAI, AISTATS, ICLR, ICML, NeurIPS), an action editor for TMLR, and a member of the ICBINB initiative.
