Johannes Roth

I'm a computer scientist and ML engineer with a background in business information systems, applied data science, and computational neuroscience.

Right now, I'm finishing a PhD in Computer Science / Machine Learning at the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig, where I build large-scale data and ML infrastructure for NeuroAI and visual neuroscience. Before that, I worked on production-facing ML services, recommender systems, image-processing pipelines, and product data workflows.

My current work asks how we can choose better images for vision and fMRI experiments: selecting from millions of natural photographs, comparing model and brain representations, and building research software that is meant to be reused rather than run once for a paper.

Selected Work

  • How to sample the world for understanding the visual system: code and experiments for a CCN 2025 paper on sampling diverse natural images for visual neuroscience.
  • LAION-fMRI: deeply sampled 7T fMRI responses to 25k natural images for NeuroAI and visual neuroscience.
  • ReLAION-2B Natural: naturalness scores for 2.1B images, identifying photographic images useful for vision research.
  • thingsvision: Python toolbox for extracting and comparing representations from 100+ vision models.
  • slurmboard: lightweight dashboard for monitoring Slurm jobs, logs, and resource usage on HPC clusters.
