Dr. Kai Sauerwald

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Artificial Intelligence Group chaired by Matthias Thimm of the FernUniversität in Hagen, Germany.

My general research area is the foundations of artificial intelligence. During my PhD, I published mainly with a focus on knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR), specifically on the dynamics of knowledge and belief, forgetting, cognitive aspects of KRR and non-monotonic reasoning.

Conference Organization: In 2025, am involved in the organization of several scientific events:
