Summary
👤
SeniorLambert Schomaker is a Full Professor of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Groningen and head of the Autonomous Perceptive Systems group, with a long-standing research portfolio in pattern recognition, machine learning, handwriting recognition, OCR and human-movement modeling. He led the ALICE institute as director of research for nearly two decades and helped integrate AI, computer science and mathematics within the Bernoulli Institute, bridging theory and applied systems. A pioneer in tablet-PC and handwriting technologies through collaborations with Olivetti, Active Book Company and Hewlett-Packard (1985–1998), he combines deep algorithmic skill (C, C++, Python, Fortran, bash, Java) with practical system-building. His work spans writer identification/verification, historical manuscript retrieval and robotics, reflecting both laboratory rigor and real-world deployment experience. Despite a primarily academic career, he maintains hands-on coding fluency and a continuing interest in machine learning toolchains and reproducible research.
