Lucas Schmitt

I am a Ph. D. student of Prof. Dr. Leon Bungert at the Institute of Mathematics at the University of Würzburg and part of the team of Mathematics of Machine Learning.

My research interests include Partial Differential Equations and their Numerical Analysis as well as Calculus of Variations with a particular focus on Machine Learning.

More precisely, I currently investigate adversarial robustness of machine learning using variational methods and geometric approaches in the DFG-project GeoMAR. The aim is to create new effective approaches for adversarial training by developing a suitable mathematical theory and transfer the knowlege into algorithms.

I am also interested in the data-based analysis of long-term developement of young players in handball, see section Handball Metastats.
