Research topics

Computer Vision

The Computer Vision group conducts research on theory and algorithms for the analysis of image-based data. This includes imaging, computer vision and image processing, with a focus on discrete data on multidimensional grids.

Data Management, Mining and Analysis

Data Management, Mining and Analysis studies methods and applications involving large data volumes or complex data collections in all information systems.

News and events

Helmholtz AI FluoMap Project

The FluoMap project funded ba Helmholtz AI started in October 2020. FluoMap pursues the goal of extracting fluorescence signals from the measurement data of the satellite- or airborne imaging spectrometers DESIS and HyPlant using state-of-the-art AI methods.

SATOMI project started

The new SATOMI project started in May 2021. The project addresses imaging challenges in segmentation and tracking of growing colonies and microbial diversity. It is funded by the Helmholtz Imaging Platform.
