Academic Career and Research Areas

Jan Křetínský (b. 1984) works in the area of formal methods. He develops methods and tools for finding errors in software systems and proving their absence and evaluates and optimizes the performance of stochastic and real-time systems. His work also involves the verification and synthesis of safe and correct controllers. To this end, automata theory, logic, probability theory and other techniques of theoretical computer science as well as machine learning are employed.

Kretinsky studied computer science, mathematics, philosophy and linguistics at Masaryk University in Brno in the Czech Republic. He studied for his doctorate in Brno and at TUM, graduating with distinction (summa cum laude) in 2013. Afterwards he joined the Institute of Science and Technology Austria as an IST Fellow. Since 2015 he has been an assistant professor at TUM.
