πŸ‘‹ Hi, I'm Christoph Weisser

πŸš€ Prof. Dr. Christoph Weisser, MLitt (St Andrews), MSc (Oxford)
Professor of Mathematics (Business Data Science) Β· Hochschule Bielefeld (HSBI)
Former Technical Lead Analytics & Artificial Intelligence @ BASF

I work at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence, Business Data Science, and open-source software, translating cutting-edge research into production-ready AI systems. My research focuses on Generative AI, agentic AI systems, tabular deep learning, machine learning, and statistics, with a strong emphasis on bridging academic innovation and real-world industrial applications.
