Biography

Hi, I’m Dominik. Currently I do research on deep learning on visual data. Previously I got my PhD at Ulm University in the Visual Comptuing Group, working at the intersection of deep learning and volume rendering. Also I really love coding, coffee, linux, games and all kinds of funky tech.
