Kolja Bauer

I'm an ELLIS PhD student at the CompVis group @ LMU Munich, advised by Björn Ommer (LMU) and Peter Kontschieder (Meta). My research focuses on large-scale generative models and their emergent representations.

Prior to my PhD, I spent six month as an ML research intern at Torc Robotics, working with Nick Schneider and Julian Ost.

I obtained my Bachelor's and Master's degree in Computer Science with a focus on Machine Learning from KIT.
