Fabian Peddinghaus

I am currently pursuing my master's degree in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at the Technical University of Munich. Before moving to Munich, I completed my bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering at the Technical University of Berlin. At TU Munich, I am working on accelerating machine learning using specialized hardware on small and embedded systems. I am also a tutor for the course Embedded System Design for Machine Learning. At TU Berlin, I worked as an undergraduate research assistant at the Department of Flight Mechanics and Flight Control. I was also the Technical Director for the Student-Project IFSys, where we developed custom Unmanned Aerial Systems.

Random Things

I wrote my bachelor thesis about signal processing algorithms for small satellites in low earth orbit. PDF More specifically, I developed and evaluated spectrum sensing algorithms for the SALSAT nanosatellite.
A seminar paper I wrote about hardware architectures for accelerating neural networks on low-power systems. PDF
A poster presenting a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) avionic-system I helped develop. PDF
Another seminar paper I wrote with a fellow student on heterogeneous computing architectures (in German). PDF
A Binary Computer I build out of Transistors in High School (in German). PDF

About Me

I enjoy biking and running. I am also a passionate field hockey player for the men's team at a local hockey club in Munich. A big hobby of mine is scuba diving. I am a certified Rescue Diver and looking to get my Master Scuba Diver certificate in the near future. I like to tinker around and build all kinds of electronics projects in my spare time, from custom calculators to walking robots to led controllers for my parent's led lights. Recently, I have found myself getting into FPGAs, hardware accelerators, and RISC-V, with a particular emphasis on signal processing, machine learning, and neural networks.
