On May 22, 2023, the newly acquired junior research group leaders will introduce themselves in the lecture hall O1 of the Paderborn University.

The Department of Computer Science welcomes Dr. Zahra Raissi as a new junior research group leader in the area of "Quantum Information" since the summer semester 2023. The overall goal of this junior research group is to investigate and understand how quantum mechanics can be used to develop new technologies.  Dr. Raissi first studied physics at Isfahan University of Technology Iran, where she completed her master's degree. She then started her…

Di, 13.06.23. 14.15 Uhr, L 2.201 Abstract: Model complexity remains a key feature of any proposed data generating mechanism. Measures of complexity can be extended to complex patterns such as signals in time and graphs. We study the well-studied class of exchangeable graphs. Exchangeability for graphs implies a distributional invariance under node permutation and is a suitable default model that can widely be used for network data. For this…

Dr. Stephanie Forge (FGI) and Dr. Christina Lammer (perspEktIve M, mentoring program for female students of the faculty EIM) would like to invite you again to the next FiMINT meeting.

In the 23rd episode of the "All Day Research" Podcast we welcome two guests. Jun.-Prof. Dr. Sebastian Peitz and Dr.-Ing. Oliver Wallscheid talk with our host Marvin Beckmann about Artificial Intelligence (AI) as an interdisciplinary project. Since September, both scientists have been researching in their two AI junior research groups how machine learning can be optimized and better used. To this end, they plan to work closely together in the…

Startup desperately wanted! Start-up ideas for the intelligent energy future

Die Weierstraß-Vorlesung 2023 findet am 12. Mai 2023 um 16:00 Uhr statt (Hörsaal O1 im Gebäude O). Für den Weierstraß-Vortrag mit dem Titel "Critical Phenomena Through the Lens of the Ising Model" konnten wir Prof. Dr. Hugo Duminil-Copin(Genf, Bures-sur-Yvette) gewinnen. Duminil-Copin wurde 2022 die Fields-Medaille verliehen, der „Nobelpreis der Mathematik“. Ergänzend wird es einen Historischen Vortrag mit dem Titel "Karl Weierstrass as…

Paderborn University researcher named Lamarr Fellow Prof. Dr. Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo, AI researcher and data scientist at Paderborn University, has been awarded the distinction of Lamarr Fellow by the Ministry of Culture and Science of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Together with the federal government, the state is providing the Lamarr Institute – launched at its Bonn, Dortmund and Sankt Augustin sites in 2022 – with a total of around…

Creating trustworthy IT systems using cryptography Banking, emails, shopping: increasing volumes of data are being collected, processed and stored online. The challenge of ensuring that they are securely encrypted is similarly increasing, because in the future, quantum computers will be able to crack current encryptions. There is a need for solutions to enable trustworthy IT systems, both now and in the years to come. The Collaborative Research…

In the course of 2023, the Institute of Computer Science will hire a total of four junior research group leaders, which will expand the range of research opportunities at the University of Paderborn for students as well.

Topics from mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology (MINT) have a lot to offer in practice: Vivid experiments, exciting ways of working and impressive results.

In the 22nd episode of the "All Day Research" podcast, we welcome Prof. Dr. Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo. Together with our host Marvin Beckmann, they talk about knowledge graphs and artificial intelligence. Knowledge graphs find their application in very different fields, where they serve different purposes. "Very popular are knowledge graphs in the field of 'information retrieval', meaning search engines. For example, when you use Google, you…
