His academic background is closely connected with business informatics, computer science, edge computing, and machine learning. During his bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s studies, he focused on data processing at the network\u2019s edge, and later continued as a PhD student at the Technical University of Ko\u0161ice with the research topic \u201cMachine Learning for Edge Computing\u201d. This shaped his professional focus on federated learning, deep learning, and AI methods suitable for devices with limited computational resources.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"element core-paragraph\">\n<p>His student and early research life was strongly project-oriented. During his PhD studies, he led AI-focused research projects involving image, video, and time-series data processing. As a consultant, he also consulted on five master\u2019s theses and ten bachelor\u2019s theses, supporting students in their academic and technical work. In parallel, he gained practical software engineering experience as a full-stack developer on a digital twin project for Slovakia. His publication record reflects a consistent focus on edge computing and applied AI, including topics such as federated learning, edge AI accelerators, cloud computing, and digital health records.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"element core-paragraph\">\n<p>At KInIT, his recent work connects academic research with applied AI systems that have practical and societal impact. He is involved in projects such as Dig4Health, which focuses on personalised digital health risk management and uses AI, data analysis, recommendation methods, and LLM-based conversational assistance to support people living with obesity and related health risks. Through this work, he contributes to AI solutions designed to be useful, trustworthy, and applicable in real-world healthcare and digital coaching scenarios.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"projects\" class=\"element acf-loop\"><section id=\"projects\" class=\"loop old \" style=\"background-color: #ebf7f9;\" >\n\t<div class=\"wrapper-out\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wrapper-in\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"in cf\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"element-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"headline\"><h2>Selected Projects<\/h2><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"loop-wrap loop-Project loop-style1 loop-load_more loop-4 cf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<article id=\"loop-item-39733\" class=\"loop-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"inner cf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/kinit.sk\/sk\/projekt\/digitalization-of-personalised-health-risk-management-in-at-risk-groups-to-improve-health-outcomes-through-integration-of-technological-and-social-innovation\/\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picture\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"200\" data-src=\"https:\/\/kinit.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/DIG4HEALTH_projekt_feature-image_right-dimensions2-320x200.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image lazyload\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 320px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 320\/200;\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content cf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Digitaliz\u00e1cia personalizovan\u00e9ho mana\u017ementu zdravotn\u00fdch riz\u00edk v rizikov\u00fdch skupin\u00e1ch s cie\u013eom zlep\u0161i\u0165 zdravotn\u00e9 v\u00fdsledky integr\u00e1ciou technologickej a spolo\u010denskej inov\u00e1cie<\/h3>\n                        \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"meta cf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"date\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdec 15. 2025\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"excerpt\">Obezita a s\u00favisiace ochorenia s\u00fa rast\u00facim zdravotn\u00fdm probl\u00e9mom na Slovensku aj vo svete.
