The ETH-ITS welcomes Marvin Künnemann
We are happy to announce that Dr. Marvin Künnemann has joined the ETH-ITS in April as our first Advanced Fellow.
Marvin Künnemann obtained his PhD in Computer Science at Saarland University and the Max Planck Institute for Informatics in 2016. He is broadly interested in theoretical computer science, with a particular focus on fine-grained complexity theory and algorithm design. In his core research, he explores the complexity landscape of polynomial-time problems by establishing connections to central hardness hypotheses. This exposes algorithmic barriers for processing large data sets, such as quadratic-time hardness of computing popular sequence similarity measures.
