Leonie Ryvkin

Leonie Ryvkin is a University Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).

Her teaching responsibilities include:

• Discrete Mathematics (since September 2022)
• Formal Algorithm Analysis for Premaster (since September 2019)
• Logic and set theory for P&T (September 2018 to August 2024)

Her research spans computational geometry and algorithms with significant applications in bioinformatics. She develops geometric similarity measures for biological location data analysis, investigates free space structures for curves, and examines complexity in combinatorial systems. Her interdisciplinary work bridges computer science and biological sciences, particularly in migratory bird movement patterns and cryptochrome protein analysis.

Recent publications reveal a consistent focus on geometric algorithms applied to real-world biological problems and theoretical computer science. Key themes include Fréchet distance applications, free space realizability, and computational complexity of puzzle mechanics, demonstrating strong connections between algorithmic theory and biological data analysis.

She has supervised one student as indicated by "Supervised Work (1)" in her profile. Her research activities suggest active involvement in interdisciplinary projects at the computer science-biology interface, though specific grant details are not provided in available sources.
