Prof. Dr. Burkhardt Funk
Vita
Burkhardt Funk is Professor of Information Systems and Data Science at Leuphana University Lüneburg. His research focuses on decision making and building data-driven serivces based on machine learning, especially in the areas of e-commerce and e-health. His teaching focuses on the mathematical foundations and applications of artificial intelligence. In 2015, he initiated one of the first Data Science degree programs in Germany and has been leading the Data Literacy Education Initiative at Leuphana, DATAx, since 2018. He has been a visiting scholar at Stanford University and the University of Virginia in Charlottesville.
The transfer of scientific findings into practice plays an important role in Burkhardt's work. He was and is involved in numerous start-ups. These include companies such as Parklane Internet, uniquedigital, HelloBetter, Deutscher Pflegering, Adference, erason, PersonalAIze and most recently Smartboatia. He also advises companies in the areas of data-driven decisions, products, and services.

Courses
In dieser Veranstaltung lernen Sie, Daten physischer Sensoren mit modernen Machine-Learning-Verfahren zu verarbeiten und zu modellieren – vom Data Cleaning und der Signalaufbereitung über Feature-Engineering und Modelltraining bis zur Evaluation. Die vermittelten Methoden finden sich u. a. in Predictive Maintenance, im autonomen Fahren sowie in datenschutzfreundlichen Ansätzen wie Federated Learning wieder.
Nach einer einführenden Vorlesungsphase entwickeln Sie ein eigenes Projekt, in dem Sie Sensordaten erheben, analysieren und für Erkennung, Vorhersage oder Anomaliedetektion nutzen – etwa zur Aktivitäts- und Gangerkennung, Haltungsklassifikation, Belastungs-/Stressschätzung oder Zustandsprognose technischer Systeme.
Als Leitfaden dient Hoogendoorn & Funk (2018), Machine Learning for the Quantified Self.
