Welcome!

I'm a doctoral researcher at the University of Stuttgart Visualization Research Center (VISUS) and part of the collaborative research center SFB-TRR 161 on quantitative methods for visual computing. I develop new methods to assess, model, and predict performance of visual computing systems. Thereby, I focus on applications from the domain of scientific visualization.

Projects

TRRojan

We developed the TRRojan framework for systematic empirical evaluation of the performance of visual computing algorithms. The TRRojan is designed to effectively carry out quantitative benchmarks in a clean, reproducible, and easy-to-use manner. It uses a plugin architecture for simple extensibility with additional applications. The framework is published as open source software (MIT licence) and the data we obtained during measurements, as well as additional information can be found on the project site.
