Dr. Katja Schladitz is with Fraunhofer-Institut fur Techno- und Wirtschaftsmathematik in Kaiserslautern, Germany, where she coordinates the group working on analysis of 3D images and modelling of microstructures within the image processing department. She has been involved in a number of industrial and academic projects. Her research focuses on application of methods from stochastic geometry to image analysis and modelling materials microstructures. Professor Joachim Ohser holds a Chair at University of Applied Sciences, Darmstadt, Germany, where he is teaching in the field of image processing. He has long experience with characterization and geometric modelling of microstructures. Since 1999 he heads the working group on quantitative microstructural analysis of the German Materials Society (DGM). His research focuses on stochastic and discrete geometry, image analysis and simulation of materials properties.
