Marc Becker
About
I am working on the mlr3 project as a research software engineer and mainly responsible for the optimization packages.
I obtained a Bachelor's Degree (B.Sc.) in Geography from the Freie Universität Berlin and a Master's Degree (M.Sc.) in Geoinformatics from the Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena.
