Computer vision researcher at the Pattern Recognition Lab,
Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU). With Nikolaus
Weichselbaumer (University of Mainz), leads a roughly €770,000, three-year
project funded by Schmidt Sciences' HAVI (2025 award round) to build
AI-assisted handwriting recognition for Gabelsberger shorthand — targeting,
among named manuscripts, Kurt Gödel's private philosophical notebooks. No
other vault presence yet; entered this session as the named lead of the one
project this capture researched in depth.
