Michael Huber (mathematician)

Michael Huber (born December 22, 1972 in Geislingen / Steige ) is a German mathematician and computer scientist .

biography

Huber studied mathematics and German at the University of Tübingen and the University of Massachusetts Amherst . In the following two years he did his doctorate in mathematics with Christoph Hering at the University of Tübingen in 2001, and in 2006 he completed his habilitation there. In 2007 and 2008 he was visiting professor with Günter Ziegler at the Technical University of Berlin . From 2008 to 2012, Huber conducted research on a Heisenberg grant in discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science at the University of Tübingen, where he has been an adjunct professor since 2012.

Huber's research is in the fields of combinatorics , coding and information theory , information security and cryptography, as well as algorithms and data visualization .

Since 2012 he has been working full-time in various management positions at Daimler AG , including a. in practical application areas of business intelligence and data science .

Michael Huber is married and has three children.
