Himmet Kaplan is a researcher with a deep passion for Data Science and Natural Language Processing. He holds an MSc in Business Administration with a major in Information and Data Management, which he obtained from the FH Graubünden. During his master's he developed computer-based methods for the recognition of emotional content in news and social media. In his master’s thesis, he combined language models and economic theories to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of commodity market analysis. For his academic performance, he was awarded a scholarship from the Hirschmann Foundation.

Before his master's, he earned a BSc in Aviation from the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW). During his studies, he designed, built, and conducted experiments in the field of electrohydrodynamic (ionic wind) propulsion. Additionally, for his bachelor thesis, in a team of two, he conducted research and development of a dynamically adapted model airplane for flight simulations. This work was published in the book of selected bachelor and master theses of ZHAW.

From 2019 to the present, he has been working as a researcher at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) in the Institute for Mechatronic Systems. At ZHAW he supervises both master's and bachelor's students and is also responsible for R&D and fund acquisition with a specific focus on Industry 4.0. 

Since September of 2023, he has been working as a principal investigator at the FH Graubünden in the Department of Applied Future Technologies for the "NewsForce" project funded by Bridge - Proof of Concept. Furthermore, he actively engages in authoring and publishing scientific. Before his current position, he worked at the Autonomous Systems Lab (ETHZ) where he supported master students and doctoral candidates in their research on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).

His research interests focus on data analytics, large language models, and economics.
