Michael H. Herzog PhD

Michael Herzog studied Mathematics, Biology, and Philosophy at the Universities of Erlangen, Tübingen (both Germany), and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA). In 1992, I earned a ''Diplom'' in mathematics with a thesis on the structure of the ''Automorphism groups of Hamming graphs'' under the supervision of Prof. Hering (University of Tübingen).

In 1993, I received a Master in philosophy with an investigation about current approaches to intentionality and representation (Prof. Keuth, Tübingen). My main interest, however, is the wide field of visual perception. Under the supervision of Prof. Fahle at the Section of Visual Science (Tübingen) and Prof. Poggio at MIT, I finished a thesis on ''mathematical models and psychophysical experiments of perceptual learning'' earning a Ph.D. in biology.
