Bettina Speckmann heads the Applied Geometric Algorithms group at the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of Eindhoven University of Technology. Her research is centered on the design and analysis of efficient algorithms and data structures for problems involving geometric objects in two, three, and higher-dimensional spaces. The Applied Geometric Algorithms group primarily focuses on the spatial data applications of geometric algorithms, including Geographic Information Science (GIScience), Smart Mobility (which encompasses automated cartography and moving object analysis), geo-visualization, visual analytics, and e-Humanities. Bettina combines rigorous algorithmic research methods with areas of computational geometry, providing performance guarantees on the quality of solutions and the running time of algorithms, achieving results of both theoretical and practical significance. With a strong emphasis on the intuitive human sense of spatial structures, her work aims to help computers develop a human-like understanding of spatial data.
