Bastian Seifert is a postdoc of Markus Püschel. Before joining ETH he did his PhD under the supervision of Knut Hüper at the department of mathematics of the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, while being a research assistant at the Center for Signal Analysis of Complex Systems of the University of Applied Sciences Ansbach. His main research interest is in algebraic signal processing theory. He did some research in the area of dimensionality reduction of epileptic EEG data, as well.
