Bio

Tobias Niehues has joined the lab as a PhD student in April 2024.

Research interests

My research interests include computational modeling for inverse decision-making in human behavior to learn about the parameters that shape our everyday behavior, as well as (the interplay of) perception & action.

I am also interested in methods from machine learning and how they can be used to improve our understanding of human behavior or vice versa can be improved by our knowledge of human cognition.
