Dieter Hahn
Dieter is co-founder and CEO of Chimaera. With training at the Pattern Recognition Lab at FAU, awards for his diploma and doctoral theses, and many years of experience in image processing, ML, and high-performance development, he shapes the technological basis of the company. His focus: robust algorithms, high-performance software architectures, and products that are clinically convincing.
For Dieter, innovation starts with the fundamentals: mathematically sound, statistically verifiable, and technically precise.
He designs algorithms that work reliably not only in the lab but also in real clinical scenarios—and develops them into scalable, maintainable, and regulatory-compliant products.
