Gregor Schiele

Prof. Dr. Gregor Schiele is a Full Professor at the University of Duisburg-Essen, where he leads the Embedded Systems Department of Computer Science since 2014. His research focuses on self-organizing embedded systems in the Internet of Things (IoT), with emphasis on local embedded intelligence using deep learning and neural networks, as well as programming abstractions for adaptive systems.

• PhD in Computer Science (2007) from the University of Stuttgart
• Prior affiliations: Insight Centre for Data Analytics (Ireland), National University of Ireland, Galway, University of Mannheim

Current research explores Embedded Machine Learning, FPGA-based AI Accelerators, and Energy-Efficient IoT Systems, with recent publications on quantization-aware training, configuration-aware power management, and medical signal processing. His 15 most recent articles highlight expertise in FPGA optimization, soft sensors, and adaptive architectures for time-series forecasting and fluid flow estimation.

Key collaboration networks include the Elastic AI Ecosystem, ZaKI.D, and TransfAIr projects. He teaches courses like Programmieren in C, Internet of Things: Protocols and System Software, and Embedded Systems, while supervising research assistants and student teams in the IoT Garage initiative.
