• I'm a trained MSc. Data Scientist (@Oxford) and Economist (@Mannheim) from Germany 💻
• I'm interested in research topics within the domain of {market design, deep learning, computational social science} 🔭.
• My work was featured in major German newspaper like Die Zeit, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, and Wirtschaftswoche.

• Kita-Match. An application that helps to allocate childcare places fair & fast.
  • You can find the code at https://github.com/svengiegerich/kitamatch
  • Joint work with the fabulous Mohammed Arif

  • You can find an overview of your work in this press release.
  • Abstract: We propose new / modified matching algorithm to allocate childcare within Germany and evaluate it's implementation in pilot municipalities. And yes, the results are promissing..
  • Interested in the software? Here is the software repo, and the simulation study.
  • @ Center for European Economic Research (ZEW) in Mannheim; (*) equal contribution

  • https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.08534
  • Abstract: We propose a novel ML architecture based on the popular Transformer to predict quite noisy financial time series. It seems the model predicts better than before.

• 06/2021: The Kita-Match paper is accepted at the Journal for Market and Institutional Design.
• 12/2021: Yeah! First, thanks to Thilo & Tobias, my bachelor thesis, the software Kita-Match, is included into what is now officially my first co-authored publication. Second, thanks to Kieran & Stefan, we merged parts of my master thesis in Ox with their own work and the result is now accessible on arxiv.org as well. Thanks to all of you! ✨
