...Leading International AI Research
Internationally renowned researchers work with the best young talents in AI to investigate how Machine Learning algorithms, models and applications need to be designed in order to deliver more powerful yet reliable, trustworthy results. We conduct our research and development in a way that software and hardware operate in a sustainable and resource-efficient manner.
Our research activities are based on the central paradigm ‘Triangular AI’ (AI3) – a new and high-performance generation of Artificial Intelligence that is not only trained based on data, but also uses additional knowledge and contextual information.
