Bastian Alt received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from Technische Universität Darmstadt in November 2013 and December 2016, respectively. He joined our team in January 2017. In January 2022, he completed his Ph.D. entitled “Model-Based Bayesian Inference, Learning, and Decision-Making with Applications in Communication Systems” at the department of electrical engineering and information technology, Technische Universität Darmstadt.
Bastian is part of the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1053 “– Multi-Mechanisms Adaptation for the Future Internet” in sub-project MAKI. He is interested in modelling of network systems. For this tools from machine learning/ statistics, control and optimization are used. B4
His research interests include topics from machine learning and control such as Bayesian inference of Markov chains, Bayesian non-parametrics, Bayesian optimization, stochastic optimal control, planning in Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), reinforcement learning and bandit algorithms.
Possible applications include learning and control of communication systems, e.g., in queuing networks.
