Automated, movable artificial limbs (prostheses) are now technologically feasible. A limiting factor on the usefulness of these prostheses is the automated control of their movements. Read more
Machine learning methods have been successfully applied to a wide range of diverse domains, from image classification to natural language processing, and they have often achieved impressive performances especially since the advent of deep learning. Read more
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are the leading edge approaches to data driven problems across all areas of life, technology and sciences. Read more
Simulation of complex systems allows research into the dynamics of systems that cannot be fully observed, ranging from biochemistry or cell-level biological processes, to social dynamics and beyond. Read more
