Tomas Hrycej is a pioneer in the field of artificial intelligence and neural networks, having worked in this field since the 1980s. As an example of his pioneering deeds, he worked in the 1990s at Daimler Research on self-driving cars. In his doctoral thesis, he dealt with modular learning concepts in neural networks. His most important research stations were Daimler AG, Bosch GmbH, the University of Passau and currently the University of St. Gallen. He is the author of three monographs: Neurocontrol - Towards an Industrial Control Methodology, Modular Learning in Neural Networks (both Wiley-Interscience) and Robust Control ("Robuste Regelung", Springer), as well as about 60 publications in journals and conference proceedings.

Bernhard Bermeitinger is a research assistant at the Chair of Data Science and Natural Language Processing and is currently working on his PhD in Deep Learning.

Matthias Cetto is a visiting researcher at the Chair of Data Science and Natural Language Processing and conducts research in the field of Natural Language Processing.
Siegfried Handschuh is a Full professor of Data Science and Natural Language Processing at the Institute of Computer Science at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland. He received his PhD from the University of Karlsruhe (now: Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), Germany. His PhD thesis was in Collaboration with Stanford University as part of the American DARPA DAML project. Siegfried spend eight year in Ireland, where he led the Knowledge Discovery Unit at the Insight Centre for Data Analytics in Galway. He worked with multinational companies such as HP, SAP, IBM, Motorola and Elsevier Publishing. He also conducted research on the Digital Aristotle initiative, a project by Microsoft co-funder Paul Allen. He has published over 300 scientific papers and is highly citedwith an h-index of 41 (according to Google Scholar). This makes him one of the top-ranked Computer Scientists in Switzerland.
