Dr. Stefan Klus is a Lecturer at the School of Mathematics and Physics, University of Surrey. His research focuses on data-driven model reduction, transfer operator approximation, and kernel-based machine learning applied to dynamical systems. He specializes in interdisciplinary applications across quantum physics, fluid dynamics, and computational biology. Education: PhD in Industrial Mathematics (2011, Paderborn University) and Habilitation (2020, Freie Universität Berlin). Research Interests : Data-driven modeling and reduced-order methods Koopman operator theory and transfer operators Machine learning for dynamical systems (e.g., Deeptime library) Tensor decompositions and quantum systems analysis Graph-based analysis (e.g., microbiome dynamics) Publications : Klus has contributed to over 50 peer-reviewed articles, with recent work emphasizing: Kernel methods for quantum chemistry and physics Tensor-based approaches for high-dimensional systems Applications in climate science (e.g., Pacific SST modeling) Agent-based modeling and social systems Technical Contributions : Co-developer of the Deeptime Python library for dynamical modeling Pioneer in Koopman operator-based model reduction Advanced graph kernel methods for microbiome analysis
