Philip Naumann
Doctoral Researcher
Affiliation: BIFOLD
Philip Naumann is a PhD student in Machine Learning at the Berlin Institute for the Foundations of Learning and Data (BIFOLD) at Technische Universität Berlin. His research explores how distribution shifts can be explained and modeled through the lens of optimal transport and XAI, with the goal of improving the reliability of foundation models. His work also extends to medical and industrial applications. He holds an MSc in Computer Science from Leibniz Universität Hannover, where he also spent an exchange semester at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and has held research positions at Freie Universität Berlin and the L3S Research Center.
