Introducing the SprintML Lab

We are the SprintML lab with a research focus on Secure, Private, Robust, INterpretable, and Trustworthy Machine Learning. The lab is jointly led by Professors Adam Dziedzic & Franziska Boenisch. We are located at the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security in Saarbrücken, Germany. Get to know our team and find out about our latest research.

Join SprintML!

We are currently hiring Ph.D. students, Postdocs, and Research Interns with a research focus in one or multiple of the following areas:

Secure and Robust Machine Learning
Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning
Distributed and Federated Learning
Machine Learning Model Confidentiality
Trustworthy Language Processing

If you are interested in working with us, please check our open positions.
