Short Bio

Jannis studied computer science at the Technical University of Darmstadt and received his master's degree in 2019 with the thesis "Cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Role-Based Games using Unity". Since spring 2020, he is a research assistant in the Adaptive Communication Systems (ACS) group at the Multimedia Communications Lab (KOM).

Research Interests

My research interests are centered around Machine Learning and its application in Adaptive Communication Systems and Game Technology, with a focus on Reinforcement Learning in Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). This includes cooperation, open MAS (agents can join/leave the system), communication, opponent modelling, partial observability and uncertainty.

Open Theses

I am looking for motivated students who would like to start with their bachelor's or master's theses. Feel free to write me an email if you are interested in one of the aformentioned topics. It helps if you already have an idea of what you would like to do (e.g. creating an AI for a specific game or solving some networking problem). You can also find a selection of open topics here.

Open Student Assistant Positions

I am looking for motivated student assistants (m/f/d) who want to help with current research problems and programming. Currently open positions include (click on the headers for PDFs):
