Research Projects
Knowledge Shapes the Future
Research begins with a question – and leads to new possibilities. It is the key to new insights, innovative solutions, and practical developments. Together with strong partners, we work on today's challenges to actively shape the world of tomorrow.
Funded Projects
Ongoing ZaKI.D
The ZaKI.D project is funded by the BMWK and the MWIKE and focuses on the implementation of artificial intelligence in highly resource-constrained devices such as sensors and other smart systems.
Ongoing TransfAIr
The BMBF-funded TransfAIr project investigates how the transferability of AI solutions in the industry can be increased so that once AI has been developed, it can be effectively transferred to new systems.
Ongoing The elasticAI.ecosystem
The elasticAI.ecosystem creates development tools and runtime environments for both embedded and distributed AI applications.
Completed RIWWER
The RIWWER project aims to research how to make Duisburg's wastewater system more resilient to torrential rain events through digitisation and AI. In this way, it contributes considerably to water and environmental protection efforts.
Completed Sp:AI:ke
How can AI be used in medical implants? The MERCUR project "Neural signal processing using artificial intelligence on an embedded platform" or Sp:AI:ke for short is tackling this question.
Completed DAAD-funded Summer School in Armenia
As part of the cooperation between the Faculty of Engineering and the American University of Armenia (AUA), the third Workshop on Collaborative Technologies and Data Science in Smart City Applications took place.
Completed KI-LiveS
The AI Lab for Distributed and Embedded Systems explores how German companies can be provided with competencies in cutting-edge research findings in the field of artificial intelligence.
Completed LUTNet
The LUTNet project, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, explores how pre-trained and pre-optimized neural networks can be used to develop AI solutions that run with high efficiency on FPGAs.
Completed FiPS
Due to the continuously increasing demand for computing performance, it is essential to find ways to reduce the energy consumption of computer systems, especially in the field of High-Performance Computing. The FiPS project aims at creating a methodology to reduce the development effort.
Completed The Third Life Project
In the Third Life Project, new artistic possibilities were explored through the "Smart Stage". Using intelligent stage technology and specialized equipment, a combined reality of virtual worlds and the real world was created to push creative boundaries beyond the limitations of physical reality.
