Professor
Robotics Institute of DLR and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
Prof. Triebel received his PhD in 2007 from the University of Freiburg in Germany with a thesis on “Three-dimensional Perception for Mobile Robots”. From 2007 to 2011, he was a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich, where he worked on machine learning algorithms for robot perception within several EU-funded projects. Then, from 2011 to 2013 he worked in the Mobile Robotics Group at the University of Oxford, where he developed unsupervised and online learning techniques for detection and classification applications in mobile robotics and autonomous driving. From 2013 to 2023, he worked as a lecturer at TU Munich, where he taught master level courses in the area of Machine Learning for Computer Vision. In 2015, he was appointed as the leader of the Department of Perception and Cognition at the Robotics Institute of DLR, and in 2023 he was also appointed as a university professor at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in “Intelligent Robot Perception”.
