Tomáš Kliegr is a Professor at the Faculty of Informatics and Statistics of Prague University of Economics and Business, leading the Data Science & Explainable AI (DSXAI) research team. He specializes in explainable machine learning, cognitive biases in AI, natural language processing for entity recognition and knowledge graphs, and preference learning. 2025: Professor of Applied Informatics at Prague University of Economics and Business 2019: Associate Professor (docent) in Applied Informatics at Prague University of Economics and Business 2017: PhD in Research in Electronic Engineering from Queen Mary University London, recognized in the Czech Republic as Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence and Biocybernetics 2012: PhD in Applied Informatics at Prague University of Economics and Business His research focuses on explainable and interpretable machine learning, particularly rule-based models, cognitive biases in AI, natural language processing, and knowledge graphs. He has contributed to software tools like arc, action-rules, and pyIDS, and leads the EasyMiner.eu project. His articles between 2018 and 2025 span topics like counterfactual explanations, text clustering visualization, SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic modeling, and rule-based ML optimization. He co-organizes the RuleML Webinars and the XI-ML workshop, and was a program committee member for RuleML+RR 2020. Best paper award at RuleML Challenge 2019 He has advised PhD students including Lukas Sykora and Stanislav Vojíř, and collaborates with institutions like the Czech Academy of Sciences and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. His work addresses the intersection of machine learning interpretability and human cognitive factors, with applications in public health and semantic web technologies.
