Research Vision

“Performing innovative human-centered research on AI across disciplines to serve the social good.”

Matthias Zeppelzauer is a professor for computer vision, multimedia retrieval and machine learning with a special focus on human-centered approaches. In his research he focuses on the development of methods for the retrieval of semantically meaningful information from different types of media including visual and acoustic data, 3D data, (medical) time series data, textual data as well as multimodal data, e.g. from social media platforms. Cross-sectional topics in his research represent interactive machine learning (human in the loop learning) and explainable machine learning. He holds habilitation from TU Wien and has co-authored more than 90 publications.
