Artificial Intelligence

Due to the increasing digitalization, methods of Artificial intelligence (AI) have steadily gained importance. Benefiting from rapidly growing amounts of data and new dimensions in computing power, AI-based learning methods outperform traditional methods. Given this fact, Artificial Intelligence is one of the lead projects of the U Bremen Research Alliance.

The lead project Artificial Intelligence deals with AI research in all its different forms in the the thirteen member institutions of the U Bremen Research Alliance. In order to build a network between research groups, support joint activities and use synergy effects, following activities take place in the lead project Artificial Intelligence:

AI Center for Health Care

Establishing the AI Center for Health Care addresses the critical relevance of artificial intelligence in relation to health research. The intention aims at the cooperation of the member institutions and in particular at funding PhD students working in interdisciplinary projects. T

Peer-to-Peer Network Artificial Intelligence

The Peer-to-Peer Network Artificial Intelligence provides experienced researchers in the U Bremen Research Alliance the opportunity to exchange ideas among each other, cooperate and use synergy effects with respect to AI topics. In particular the network shall connect AI research and AI application.

ECAI 2023 in Kraków

In order to provide information about Bremen as a science location, the U Bremen Research Alliance exhibited at the European Conference on Artificial Intelligence – ECAI in Krakow in early October. For a special reason: Bremen is hosting the 2026 International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence – IJCAI, the international counterpart of the ECAI. This means that, for the first time in over 40 years, one of the largest and most renowned conferences on artificial intelligence is coming back to Germany. Several thousand participants are expected.
