# TRESP Lab @ LMU Munich

We advance representation learning for **knowledge graphs**, **multimodal learning**, and **AI-driven understanding**—building systems that integrate text, images, and video into structured, actionable world models.  [oai_citation:0‡TRESP Lab](https://tresp-lab.github.io/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

## 🔭 Research Directions
- Temporal & hyper-relational **knowledge graphs**; inductive reasoning and link prediction.  [oai_citation:1‡MCML](https://mcml.ai/research/groups/tresp/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)  
- **Multimodal foundation models** for cognitive AI and human-level understanding.  [oai_citation:2‡TRESP Lab](https://tresp-lab.github.io/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)  
- Robust **adaptation of vision-language models** and open dynamic graph benchmarks.  [oai_citation:3‡NeurIPS](https://neurips.cc/media/neurips-2023/Slides/73702.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
