Group Leader Prof. Dr. Enkelejda Kasneci
Since August 2022, I am a Liesel Beckmann Distinguished Professor for Human-Centered Technologies for Learning at the Technical University of Munich. Please visit my new webpage.
Enkelejda Kasneci is a Professor of Computer Science at the University of Tübingen, Germany, where she leads since December 2019 the Human-Computer Interaction Lab. As a BOSCH scholar, she received her M.Sc. degree in Computer Science from the University of Stuttgart in 2007. In 2013, she received her PhD in Computer Science from the University of Tübingen. For her PhD research, she was awarded the research prize of the Federation Südwestmetall in 2014. From 2013 to 2015, she was a postdoctoral researcher and a Margarete-von-Wrangell Fellow at the University of Tübingen. She established her research and teaching activities at the University of Tübingen from 2015 to 2019 as an assistant professor and head of the Perception Engineering Lab. Her research evolves around the application of machine learning for intelligent and perceptual human-computer interaction. She serves as academic editor for PlosOne and as a TPC member and reviewer for several major conferences and journals in the areas of intelligent and multimodal human-computer interaction, computer vision, and cognitive computing.
