Welcome

I am a Full Professor of Machine Learning for Complex Networks at the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science of Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg.

My research addresses open questions at the intersection between artificial intelligence, network science, graph theory, and the physics of complex systems. A summary of my foundational works on higher-order network models for complex systems was published in Nature Physics. You can find more details on my portfolio of foundational and applied research here.

In 2014 I was awarded a Junior-Fellowship from the German Informatics Society. In 2018 I was awarded an SNSF Professorship with a volume of more than EUR 1.5 Mio from the Swiss National Science Foundation. Since 2021 I hold the CAIDAS-Chair of Computer Science — Machine Learning for Complex Networks at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg.

I am founding co-chair of the Computational Social Science Section of the German Informatics Society (GI e.V.). I am also member of the European Lab for Learning and Intelligent Systems (ELLIS) and deputy director of the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (CAIDAS) at the University of Würzburg.

I previously held positions at ETH Zürich, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), and the University of Zürich. A full list of past affiliations is on my CV.

In my free time I enjoy hiking, cycling, and landscape photography. You can find information on my photography work and outdoor activities at ingoscholtes.photo.
