Brief Bio
He's a Swiss Post Professor of Informatics at the Human-IST Institute of the University of Fribourg. His transdisciplinary research focuses on soft and cognitive computing and its application to cities. After an apprenticeship as an electrician, he studied business informatics and got a doctorate in fuzzy systems. Among others, he worked for Swisscom, PwC and EY. In addition, he was also a researcher at the universities of Singapore, Berkeley and Bern.

SCOPE
Fuzzy systems can deal with natural-language data and are therefore very suitable when it comes to characterising the expressions of people for example in social media and to test ethical maturity. In this context, ethicity means a fuzzy measuring of an ethical value, which may vary from 0 (non-ethical) to 1 (fully ethical).
Next, soft computing solutions allows smart participation, efficient data collection, data analyses and mining knowledge in an explainable and understandable way for all urban stakeholders. In addition, emerging soft computing approaches also allow for interactive machine learning in a collaborative manner with citizens able to interact with their data. This results in services that are based on citizens' needs and thus sustainably improve the quality of coexistence.
