Speech Technology · Mercedes-Benz R&D
I work at the Speech Technology group at Mercedes-Benz Research & Development, contributing to the next generations of the Mercedes-Benz User Experience MBUX, with the MBUX Virtual Assistant. Previously I was a researcher in the Beyond-CFG group at the University of Düsseldorf. I received my doctorate (Dr. phil.) in Computational Linguistics from the University of Tübingen (2013). Further details are available on the profiles linked above.
