Clemens Heitzinger is Co-Director of the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (CAIML) AND Head of the Research Group for Machine Learning and Uncertainty Quantification at the Department of Mathematics and Geoinformation at TU Wien.

Clemens Heitzinger received both his master’s degree (Dipl.-Ing.) in applied mathematics and his PhD degree (Dr. techn.) in technical sciences with highest honors from TU Wien. He was a visiting researcher in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Arizona State University, a research associate in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University, and a senior research associate in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) at Cambridge University. In 2015, he returned to TU Wien as an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Geoinformation. He is also an Adjunct Professor in the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at Arizona State University. He was awarded the START Prize, Austria’s most prestigious award for young scientists, by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) in 2013. He is author of “Algorithms with Julia” (Springer, 2022).

His research interests are reinforcement learning and uncertainty quantification (in particular Bayesian inversion and stochastic partial differential equations) with applications in the sciences, medicine, and engineering.
