Antrittsvorlesungen: Der Weg zur menschenzentrierten KI

In the organizer's words:

Inaugural lecture

What current developments in computer science and artificial intelligence (AI) are we working on in Oldenburg? Seven new professors have been appointed to the Department of Computer Science at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg in the last four years. They have enriched us with exciting and important focal points. In this lecture series, they present themselves and their topics in a generally understandable way.

The lectures take place every Wednesday from 4 p.m. in the CORE.

Speaker: Prof. Dr. Daniel Sonntag

The "Applied AI" working group, which is integrated into the Interactive Machine Learning research area of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence, focuses on the application and adaptation of artificial intelligence methods to industrial and medical applications, for example. The topic of sustainability plays a major role in Oldenburg, with research-relevant application aspects primarily addressing the use of learning systems and intelligent user interfaces. Special areas of focus are multimodal input and output as well as multisensor applications using environment and state recognition, sensor data processing and questions of real-time capability and interactivity when learning with very large or very small amounts of data, right through to reliability aspects (including trust in AI and explainable AI).regardless of specific subject areas, the overarching research objective is to design instructions for the practical application of artificial intelligence. In addition, basic research is carried out in the interdisciplinary field of human-machine interaction in combination with machine learning.

The inaugural lectures are open to the public. Open to all - come along!
