Projects & Partners

Our researchers are actively involved in various consortia, projects, and collaborations.

Mathematics Efficiency of Deep Learning
Mathematics & Efficiency of Deep Learning public ELLIS Reading Group

This reading group aims to help onboard young scientists interested in the topic of efficient ML and offers researchers at all levels a platform for an open dialog to foster collaboration, and stay up-to-date with rapid developments in the field. We welcome and discuss fresh research findings published as a pre-print or recently presented at research venues.

GraML
GraML Graz Research Center for Machine Learning

In order to promote the recognition of AI and ML as the most important tools for the future, TU Graz has established the Graz Center for Machine Learning research network. Interdisciplinary work is currently being carried out here to support the further development of machine learning, whether this support enables us to draw efficient and meaningful conclusions from Big Data, to identify the best combination of materials, or to make the systems themselves just a bit smarter.

Bilateral AI
Bilateral AI FWF Cluster of Excellence

The Austrian-wide Cluster of Excellence “Bilateral AI” aims at lifting artificial intelligence (AI) to the next level. It will combine two of the most important types of AI which have been developed separately so far, symbolic and sub-symbolic AI. This integration, resulting in a Broad AI, is intended to mirror something that humans do naturally, the simultaneous use of cognition and reasoning skills.
