Bernhard Ganter – Radim Belohlavek – Sebastian Rudolph – M. Eugenia Cornejo
Bernhard Ganter is a Professor Emeritus of Mathematics (Algebraic Theoryof Structures) at TU Dresden, Germany. In his scientific work, Ganter initially
dealt with general algebra, order theory, discrete mathematics and connections
between these areas. He received his doctorate in 1974. Four years later he
became an associate professor in Rudolf Wille’s group at TU Darmstadt, which
founded and developed the field of Formal Concept Analysis in the early 1980s.
Dresden, which he held until his retirement, eventually as the Dean of Science.
(“Mathematics Adventure Land”), a popular permanent exhibition located in the
Dresden Technology Collections Museum. Many of the exhibits shown there were
designed by him.
Radim Belohlavek is professor of computer science at Palacky University Olomouc. He holds PhD in computer science and in mathematics, and obtained a DSc in informatics and cybernetics from the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. Earlier in his career he was research fellow and in 2007-2009 tenured professor at the State University of New York. His academic interests are in the areas of logic, discrete mathematics, artificial intelligence, data analysis, and uncertainty and information. R. Belohlavek authored or coauthored four books published by Kluwer, Springer, the MIT Press, and the Oxford University Press, and over 200 papers in conference proceedings and journals including J. Computer and System Sciences, Annals of Pure and Applied Logic, Archive for Math. Logic, Discrete Applied Mathematics, Neural Computation, J. Logic and Computation, J. Mathematical Analysis and Applications, Fundamenta Informaticae, Order, Algebra Universalis, IEEE Trans. on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Int. J. Approximate Reasoning, and Fuzzy Sets and Systems. He served as editor-in-chief of the International Journal of General Systems and serves on editorial boards of other journals including J. Computer and System Sciences, Fundamenta Informaticae, Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence, and Fuzzy Sets and Systems. R. Belohlavek is married and has four children. His hobbies include literature and sports.

Sebastian Rudolph is full professor for computational logic and head of the AI Institute at TU Dresden. His scientific interests revolve around artificial intelligence, with a particular focus on logical formalisms and methods for knowledge representation and reasoning, ranging from theoretical foundations (such as semantic and computational properties) to practical deployment (including ontological modeling and interactive knowledge acquisition). In the course of an ongoing ERC Consolidator Grant, his team currently investigates general principles of decidability in logic-based knowledge representation.
