Arjan Kuijper

Prof. Dr. Arjan Kuijper holds a chair in “Mathematical and Applied Visual Computing” at TU Darmstadt and is at Fraunhofer IGD responsible for dissemination of scientific results.

He received his MSc in 1995 from the Department of Applied Mathematics, University of Twente, The Netherlands, and his PhD in 2002 from the Department of Computer Science and Mathematics, University of Utrecht, The Netherlands.

After a period as a post-doc at this university, he was an assistant research professor at the IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark from 2003 to 2005. In 2005 he started as senior researcher at the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics (RICAM), Linz, Austria.

Since 2008 he has been a research coach at the Fraunhofer IGD, Darmstadt, and coordinates the dissemination of scientific research results. In addition, he gives lectures at the TU Darmstadt. In 2009 he completed his habilitation at the Technical University of Graz, Austria, and since then has also been a private lecturer at the Institute for Computer Graphics and Vision (ICG) at TU Graz, a status that was transferred to TU Darmstadt in 2010.

In 2015, in cooperation with Fraunhofer IGD, he was already appointed to a temporary 6-year W3 professorship for Mathematical and Applied Visual Computing at the TU Darmstadt, which became permanent in 2023.

He is the author of over 450 peer-reviewed publications and serves as a reviewer for many journals and conferences, as well as a program committee member and conference organizer. He is Past-President of the International Association of Pattern Recognition (IAPR) and Associate Editor for Computer Vision and Image Understanding (CVIU), Pattern Recognition (PR) and The Visual Computer (TVCJ). His research interests include all aspects of mathematics-based methods for machine learning, computer vision, graphics, imaging, pattern recognition, interaction, and visualization.
