Fabian Pfitzner

Fabian Pfitzner is a Research Associate at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), specifically within the Chair of Computing in Civil and Building Engineering led by Prof. Dr.-Ing. André Borrmann. His work focuses on leveraging data mining, computer vision, and knowledge graphs to enhance construction site monitoring and process automation.

Research Interests:

• Data Mining & AI in Construction: Developing intelligent systems to extract actionable insights from construction site data.
• Computer Vision for Process Monitoring: Applying advanced image analysis techniques to track construction progress and activities.
• Knowledge Graph Construction: Creating semantic models to represent construction processes and enable better decision-making.
• Digital Twinning: Building real-time digital replicas of construction sites for enhanced control and optimization.

His recent publications span Automation in Construction, Forum Bauinformatik, and CIB W78, focusing on concrete pouring monitoring, rebar installation prediction, and robotic construction monitoring. These works consistently integrate AI-driven analytics with real-world construction challenges.

Teaching & Supervision: Mr. Pfitzner teaches Bau- und Umweltinformatik 1 and Softwarelab, and has supervised multiple Master’s and Bachelor’s theses on topics including BIM-based progress monitoring, digital twins, and automated environmental impact calculations.
