Research groups
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines. AI systems are able to interpret data and decide its further actions based on that interpretation.
Autonomous Systems
Autonomous Systems Autonomous systems that are able to operate independently of human control in unknown and unstructured environments.
Cyber Security
Cyber Security aim to become a leading academic research and education community for cyber security in Europe.
Data Science
Data Science extracts knowledge and understanding from data using a combination of approaches from statistics, mathematics, computer science, physics, engineering as well as domain-specific knowledge.
Digital Electrical Energy
Digital Electrical Energy is dedicated to improving efficiency and performance of electric power and energy systems for a sustainable future by embracing these developments with the innovative use of information technology, communication technology, computer science, power electronics, and cybernetics.
Digital Enterprise
Digital Enterprise focuses on generating knowledge on the changes, implications, and consequences of digital technology design and use in organizations, organization ecosystems, the economy, businesses, and the society at large.
Digital Twins
Digital Twins are a virtual representations of a physical asset enabled through data and simulators for real-time prediction, monitoring, control and optimization of the asset for improved decision making throughout the life cycle of the asset and beyond.
Energy Efficient Computing Systems
Energy Efficient Computing Systems (EECS) focuses on energy efficiency as the key design challenge for future computing systems, ranging from wireless embedded client devices to high-performance computing centers.
Internet of Things
Internet of Things (IoT) is a network system of devices containing electronics, sensors, software, communications, and actuators, with various combinations of interaction in terms of sensing, communication, computation, and control.
