Mission: making AI trustworthy by design.

I am Full Professor and head of the Chair of Artificial Intelligence and Formal Methods at Ruhr University Bochum, and Professor of Safe and Dependable AI at Radboud University Nijmegen. I am also a Principal Investigator in the Cluster of Excellence CASA. My groups combine machine learning with formal methods to build AI that is safe, robust and dependable.

Research themes

  • Neurosymbolic verification: formal guarantees for learning-based systems
  • Safe reinforcement learning
  • Decision-making under uncertainty (MDPs, POMDPs, robust models)
  • Neurosymbolic AI
  • Autonomous systems and robotics
