Summary
Mostafa Kotb is a PhD researcher at the Knowledge Technology group, University of Hamburg, with eight years of experience spanning deep learning, time-series forecasting, and robotics. After developing recurrent-network forecasting models during his master's at Aswan University and CAIRO, he shifted focus to reinforcement learning and now researches model-based RL and planning for robotic manipulation. He combines academic rigour from a long-running research assistantship with hands-on teaching roles as an assistant lecturer, giving him strong communication and mentoring skills alongside technical depth. Based in Hamburg, he brings practical experience bridging algorithmic research and real-world robotics problems, and often draws on his background in time-series modeling to inform dynamics-aware planning.
