Meine Forschung besch?ftigt sich vorwiegend mit der Erweiterung von Learning Classifier Systemen (LCS), einer Familie von evolution?ren regelbasierten Lernverfahren, und deren Anwendung im Kontext von intelligenten, d.h. selbstlernenden adaptiven Systemen. Dabei verfolge ich das Ziel, die unentdeckten Potentiale dieses einzigartigen Lernverfahrens (Selbstadaptivit?t im Bezug auf kontinuierliche Umweltver?nderungen, inkrementeller Aufbau einer interpretierbaren Wissensbasis)?aufzuzeigen. Um ad?quat und robuster auf zur Systemlaufzeit aufgedeckte Wissenslücken zu reagieren, erweitere ich intelligente Systeme mit Techniken um (1) derartige Lücken in der Wissensbasis transduktiv mittels Interpolation zu schlie?en, und, (2) proaktiv neues Wissen, z.B. mittels Active Learning, zu erzeugen.?

?

Au?erdem besch?ftige ich mich derzeit mit:?

• Weiteren Evolution?ren Maschinellen Lernverfahren?(GP, Neuroevolution, etc.)

• (Deep) Reinforcement Learning

• Wissenstransfer & -extraktion von Blackbox Modellen

• Künstlicher Intelligenz im Allgemeinen, insb. Machine Learning und den ungel?sten Problemen

• Entwurf von Organic/Autonomic Computing Systemen
