Hello, I am Gregor Kappler,
I’m a independent consultant, data-scientist, programmer, and researcher. I authored CombinedParsers.jl, an open source julia parser package, have been lecturing Multivariate Statistical Methods (videos, German) and worked as a senior data scientist and software developer.
I am looking forward to help your business organization develop and deploy software, predictive models and visualizations to process and understand business information.
About me, professionally:
Gregor has been developing thoughout his live in many languages. Today he fancies functional languages like Julia, elm (“javascript haskell”), R and lisp (emacs afficionado) to get his work done and automated. Before, he has professionally worked with javascript, java, and C for over a decade; after being initiated with Turbo Pascal and Basic as a youngster. In close to 3 decades, Gregor has gained experience on all layers of a full-stack deployment, some on expert level, some sufficient to always find a way.
Gregor has been trained as a mathematician and psychology researcher and worked as a lecturer and researcher at the University of Vienna and the University of Jena. For his PhD in 2007 he implemented an expert system and a neural network for semantic text analytics. As Senior Consultant for Autonomy, he has been working for software vendors developing mainly java web frontends and services for semantic search. Gregor has been leading a series of predictive analytics projects as Principal Data Scientist EMEA for Fuzzy Logix, deploying in-database analytic solutions and heading a development team.
Gregor researched and implemented logical as well as statistical models for text analysis (in java, R, and julia).
Since 2017 he focuses on researching a novel nonparametric psychometric model for text/graph data.
The novel psychometric model is inspiring FilingForest
