Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a simulation tool to create detailed models of everything from traffic junctions to entire cities to answer various mobility questions.
The MCML is one of Germany's leading research centers for AI and machine learning. It brings together the expertise of renowned researchers and young talents. Three international researchers who moved to Munich to advance their academic career, tell us about their research activities.
Eva Weig and her team are building mechanical quantum sensors large enough to be seen under an electron microscope. One day, they could become fundamental components of a new quantum technology.
How can automated driving in severe weather be made more safe? Doctoral candidate Mohamed Mofeed Chaar is using machine learning to achieve the vision of accident-free road traffic.
How do artificial neural networks and the algorithms derived from them reach correct decisions? And how can this be understood? Gitta Kutyniok, a mathematician, explores the mystery of artificial intelligence.
- Exoskeleton reduces physical effort by up to 65 per cent. - The robot wirelessly transmits information about a component’s weight to the exoskeleton. - The robot can handle components weighing up to 15 kilograms.
With the SFB 1785 “Generalised Motivic Methods in Geometry,” the UR has now been awarded its fifth Collaborative Research Center
Together with the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen (Czech Republic), the University of Bayreuth has launched a project on teaching mathematics in heterogeneous learning groups. The international research and qualification project “MaDiMat” aims to empower teachers and student teachers to develop and implement differentiated learning opportunities in mathematics education.
For over 150 years, a rule of thumb dating back to the French mathematician Pierre Ossian Bonnet has been accepted in surface theory: if the metric and mean curvature of a compact surface are known at every point, then the surface can be uniquely determined. However, a team of three mathematicians from the Technical University of Munich (TUM), the Technical University of Berlin and North Carolina State University have now managed to disprove this recognized rule.
- Researchers combine 3D image recognition with language models. - Artificial intelligence can be integrated into any robot. - Robots use continuous probability calculations to guide searches.
