Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Sanaz Mostaghim

Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg

Fakultät für Informatik

Institut für Intelligente Kooperierende Systeme

Our major focus in research and teaching is on Intelligent Systems, particularly Computational Intelligence and Swarm Intelligence.
Computational Intelligence is an important tool for dealing with complex systems and can be used everywhere: automotive industry, medical applications, chemistry, geology, entrepreneurship, system design, games, biology, etc. In this area, we work on evolutionary algorithms, particle swarm optimization and their applications on multi-objective problems.
Furthermore, we study algorithms and different applications of Swarm Intelligence in optimization, swarm robotics, and distributed systems. Swarm Intelligence is a collective learning mechanism with the goal to achieve a global complex and intelligent behavior using simple rules on simple technical devices.

Vita

Sanaz Mostaghim is a full professor of Computer Science at the Otto von Guericke University of Magdeburg, since 2014.
She received her PhD degree in electrical engineering and computer science under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Jürgen Teich at the University of Paderborn in 2004.  Sanaz joined the Computational Laboratory (CoLab) of the computational science department at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich in Switzerland in 2004. In 2006, Sanaz joined Institute AIFB at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and started working on her habilitation in applied computer science which she successfully finished in 2012. The title of her habilitation thesis is: Self-organized Parallel Optimization. 
In 2010, Sanaz was a visiting scholar at Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia and in 2013 she has been a visiting scholar at the Yale University, New Haven, USA, where she visited the Social Robotic Laboratory.

In 2014, Sanaz received the prestigious DFG Heisenberg-Professorship at KIT.

Sanaz is an active member in international communities. She is the vice president of IEEE Computational Intelligence Society (starting from 2021) and served as adcom member for two terms (2015-2020).
