Joachim Baumeister

Joachim Baumeister is a Professor at the Chair of Computer Science VI - Artificial Intelligence and Knowledge Systems within the Institute of Computer Science at the University of Würzburg's Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science. While his primary employment since September 2010 has been at denkbares GmbH, a company specializing in knowledge-based systems, he continues to regularly give lectures at the university.

His research focuses on Semantic Information Systems, Knowledge Graphs, Deep Learning applications, Natural Language Processing, and Knowledge-based Configuration for Industry 4.0. Professor Baumeister's work bridges theoretical AI research with practical industry applications, particularly in knowledge-based configuration systems and semantic technologies.

His recent publications (2020-2024) reveal a strong emphasis on product configuration systems, semantic knowledge representation, regulatory document processing, and knowledge-based systems. His research has evolved from foundational work on semantic wikis and knowledge engineering to more recent applications involving deep learning and large language models, demonstrating adaptability to emerging technologies while maintaining focus on practical knowledge representation problems.

Professor Baumeister's work demonstrates significant contributions to case-based reasoning, knowledge configuration, and semantic technologies, with applications spanning regulatory compliance, industrial configuration systems, and document processing.

His current research areas include:

• Semantic Information Systems and Knowledge Graphs
• Deep Learning for Image Recognition and Language Understanding
• Knowledge-based Configuration for Industry 4.0
• Natural Language Processing
• Intelligent Personal Assistants and Chat Bots
