Topics of Wilfried Gansterer (wilfried.gansterer (at) univie.ac.at) focus on various aspects of numerical algorithms. For these topics, interest in numerical algorithms and (large-scale) matrix computations as well as in high performance computing and parallel computing is usually required.

Please Note: You find examples of possible topics below, but you can also contact me and suggest your own project idea!

  1. Robustness and fault tolerance in training and inference of (deep) neural networks (look here and here and here)
  2. State-of-the-art check-pointing for achieving fault tolerance in large-scale computations
