I'm a PhD student at the DSS chair supervised by Prof. Bichler. My research focusses on computation of equilibria in markets and auctions via multi-agent reinforcement learning methods.

We currently have several possible topics for student projects (MSc or BSc theses, IDP, Guided Research) in this research area. If you're looking for a project and interested in (Multi-Agent) Reinforcement Learning, Neural Networks, Nonlinear Optimization, Market Design and/or Algorithmic Game Theory, feel free to get in touch.
