Assoc. Prof. Ozan Özdenizci is a faculty member at the Institute of Machine Learning and Neural Computation, TU Graz, Austria. His research focuses on robustness, safety, and efficiency in machine learning, particularly in adversarial robustness, spiking neural networks, and privacy-aware learning. He holds a PhD from Northeastern University (2016), and MSc/BSc degrees from Sabancı University (2010/2008). Previously, he served as a postdoc at TU Graz (2016–2020) and a research group leader at Montanuniversität Leoben (2020–2023). Affiliations: TU Graz (2023–present), Montanuniversität Leoben (2020–2023), TU Graz Postdoc (2016–2020) Education: PhD (Northeastern University, 2016), MSc/BSc (Sabancı University, 2010/2008) Research Interests: Developing ML systems with robustness guarantees, efficient deep learning (e.g., spiking networks), and privacy-aware mechanisms. Key areas include adversarial defense mechanisms, sparse network design, and neuromorphic computing applications. His work bridges theoretical foundations with practical implementations in computer vision and autonomous systems. Recent Contributions: Advances in privacy-aware lifelong learning (ICLR 2025), robust spiking networks (TMLR 2024), and weather-resistant vision models (TPAMI 2023). His research emphasizes trade-offs between model efficiency, robustness, and scalability. Awards: Top Reviewer at NeurIPS 2023, Outstanding Reviewer at ICML 2022/ICLR 2022 Labs/Teams: Member of Graz Center for Machine Learning (GraML) and ELLIS Unit Graz
