2025-02: Oops! We Did It Again! ... In the winter semester 2024/2025, I once again ran a
computer vision challenge
together with my colleage Prof. Dr. Klaus Ulhaas for so many motivated students in collaboration with AGCO Fendt.
Students had to develop an object detection solution based on monocular camera images for sugar beet plants.
I think it's great that the students were willing to put in this extra time despite having so many lectures and
that all solutions that have been submitted were successful in recognizing the plants!
2024-03: Artificial intelligence is becoming more powerful every day! ChatGPT can now create very helpful sketches when explaining mathematical concepts. Great! ;-)

2024-02: Together with my colleague, Prof. Dr. Klaus Ulhaas and the company AGCO Fendt, we organized a computer vision / deep learning challenge
for plant detection in the winter semester 2023/2024 for students in various master's degree courses at the University of Kempten.
At the end there was a final round where the teams presented their solutions and there was an award ceremony at AGCO Fendt.
I think it's great that
so many students
took part voluntarily and so eagerly!
2023-11: Bonifaz Stuhr gave an excellent guest lecture on the topic of GANs and sequence learning in my master's lecture on deep learning:

Thank you on behalf of the students!
2023-11: I supervised Bonifaz Stuhr's PhD thesis on Deep Learning between 2018-2023.
I didn't want to miss his
defense at the
CVC (Computer Vision Center) at UAB (Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona). Congrats!
2023-11: A student has put together some quotes from my deep learning lecture very nicely as a
mp3 file ;-)
