Jan his research interests lie at the crossroads between machine learning, mathematical optimization and image processing. From a methodological point of view, he likes to combine novel insights from the fields of convex and discrete optimization to develop new data analysis strategies for solving predictive modeling (with a focus on mixtures), image processing and multimodal data-analysis problems.
