In the following, I list some representative publications which best reflect my research interests. A more comprehensive list of publications can be found on my DBLP, Google Scholar, and ORCID profiles.
In my research, I'm particularly interested in the investigation of innovative applications of AI and analytics to real-world problems in various application domains, in particular air traffic management (ATM) and tax law but also dairy farming and social media communication, among others.

Multilevel modeling overcomes the dichotomy between class and object in the object-oriented modeling paradigm. Rather, multilevel models comprise clabjects, which are instances of classes but also themselves classes for other objects. One application of multilevel modeling that I'm particularly interested in is business process modeling, including the representation of analytics processes.
