Coordinated Projects

The lack of cost transparency in scholarly publishing poses significant challenges for institutions and researchers. Our project, openCost, aims to fix that..

Analyzing the similarity of protein interfaces in protein-protein interactions gives new insights into protein function and assists in discovering new drugs. Usually, tools that assess the similarity focus on the interactions between two protein interfaces, while sometimes we only have one predicted interface. [...]

We use neural networks to address the challenge of deriving dielectric coating designs from the desired optical properties. We show that our trained neural network can automatically design common laser mirror coatings types efficiently..

Virtual reality (VR) has become an important interactive visualization tool for various industrial processes including facility inspection and maintenance. The capability of a VR application to present users with realistic simulations of complex systems and immerse them in, for example, inaccessible remote environments is often essential for using VR in real-world industrial domains. [...]

In recent years, neural network-based classification has been used to improve data analysis at collider experiments. While this strategy proves to be hugely successful, the underlying models are not commonly shared with the public and rely on experiment-internal data as well as full detector simulations. [...]

Recently, combinations of generative and Bayesian deep learning have been introduced in particle physics for both fast detector simulation and inference tasks. These neural networks aim to quantify the uncertainty on the generated distribution originating from limited training statistics. [...]

This thesis aims to analyze techniques for improving the fault detection capabilities of large cyber-physical systems. The Low-Level Radio Frequency (LLRF) control system of the European X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) is the main target system. [...]

Das Hands-on Lab diente neben der Vorstellung des Projekts auch dem gemeinsamen Informations- und Ideenaustausch mit der Community. In fünf Kleingruppen bearbeiteten die Anwesenden folgende Fragestellungen und Themen [...]
