Luca Kohlhepp

Luca Kohlhepp is a Researcher at the Chair of Artificial Intelligence and Knowledge Systems (Computer Science VI) within the Institute of Computer Science at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Würzburg. Based at the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (CAIDAS) in Emil-Fischer-Straße 50, Room 03.010, he conducts medical AI research since April 2022.

His primary research focuses on:

• Natural Language Processing for healthcare systems
• AI-driven digitization of clinical workflows
• Document intelligence in regulated medical environments

Key projects driving his work include:

• DZ.PTM: Developing smartphone-based AI systems to process radiology treatment orders at University Hospital Würzburg, digitizing Central Service Management (ZLM)
• NextGenTMF: Creating automated document recognition systems for Trial Master Files (TMF) that identify missing/incorrect clinical trial documentation through content analysis

His methodology combines rule-based processing with machine learning techniques to solve real-world medical bureaucracy challenges. Current work emphasizes practical NLP implementations in precision telemedicine and clinical trial management systems.

As part of CAIDAS, he contributes to Würzburg's medical AI ecosystem through:

• Integration of open-source tools like UIMA Ruta (text annotation) and d3web (classification)
• Collaboration with university hospital departments on workflow digitization
• Development of AI pipelines for medical documentation standardization
