Welcome to the official website of Prof. Dr. Rolf Krause
Computational and Data Science are the key technologies of presence and future. Computational methods and mathematical analysis are used for simulation, prediction, data evaluation, analysis, risk assessment, development and optimization, and can be found virtually everywhere.
Models, mathematics, statistics, data and algorithms are the fundament of our digital world. By combining mathematical and statistical knowledge with informatics, computational science and data science provide unseen new perspectives for research, economy, and for our society. Exploiting the capabilities of modern numercial and computational methods and of supercomputers, increasingly complex problems can be tackled – in economy, finance, pharmacy, medicine, R&D, natural-, environmental-, and social-sciences, bio-medicine, or engineering sciences.
Prof. Rolf Krause's research focuses on numerical simulation, machine learning, optimization, and data driven approaches. The complexity of real world applications constitutes a challenge for model and data based prediction, turning the development of models and of solution methods into a challenging task. In addition to a well balanced combination of methodological and mathematical knowledge, it also requires experience in dealing with subtle aspects of the implementation.
