Artificial Neural Networks
Evolutionary Algorithms
 |
EvA2
- a comprehensive Evolutionary Algorithms library: Hill-Climber,
Simulated Annealing, Genetic Algorithms, PBIL, Evolution Strategies,
Genetic Programming, Grammatical Evolution, Model-Assisted ES,
Multi-Objective ES (H. Planatscher, M. Kronfeld). |
 |
Optimisation
in Dynamic Environments - Many interesting real-world
problems are not static but change over time. In this project we use
EvA2 to develop and test new optimisation approaches for dynamic
target functions (M. Kronfeld). |
 |
Soft
Computing in GeoScience - soft computing methods for
efficient parameter identification in geological models; optimal
decision making for problems in geoscience, like irrigation scheduling
and well placement in dynamic, multi modal, stochastic, high
dimensional environments (M. de Paly). |
Autonomous Mobile
Robots
 |
Multiple
Robot Systems - Formation Control - Formation control is an
important technique to achieve cooperative behavior in multi-robot
systems. The task is to control a group of mobile robots to follow a
predefined path or trajectory, while maintaining a desired formation
pattern (K. Kanjanawanishkul). |
 |
Ambient
sensors for mobile robot navigation - We investigate how RFID
(radio frequency identification) technology can be used for continuous
inventory and self-localization by a mobile robot which is equipped
with an RFID reader (P. Vorst, K. Bohlmann). This
research is conducted in
the scope of the project AmbiSense
funded by the Landesstiftung Baden-Württemberg. |
 |
Autonomous
Flying Robots - Leightweight solutions for mapping and
localization in three dimensions (K.E. Wenzel, S. Erhard) |
 |
Vision-based
Robot Localization using Invariant Features - The application
of different vision-based feature extraction approaches to the
localization of mobile robots is investigated (P. Komma, S. Erhard).
|
 |
Mobile
Heterogeneous Robots - Cooperative Behaviour of Mobile
Heterogeneous Robot-Teams (M.Hofmeister). |
|
Outdoor
Robot - Sensor fusion, terrain classification and terrain
mapping with a mobile outdoor robot (K. Bohlmann, P. Komma, C. Weiss). |
Applications
of Bio- and
Cheminformatics
 |
NGFNplus
- Systems biology in the research of Parkinson's disease (F.
Büchel, A. Dräger, F. Mittag). |
 |
HepatoSys
- The focus of the BMBF funded network is the quantitative model-based
understanding of the dynamic cellular processes involved in
endocytosis, detoxification and regeneration of hepatocytes. We are
part of the detoxification network and focus on the modelling and
simulation of large gene regulatory networks of hepatocytes (L. Xu, A.
Schröder). |
 |
Kernel
Based ADME Prediction - Prediction of ADME properties of
molecular compounds to validate their suitability as potential drugs
(N. Fechner, G. Hinselmann, A. Jahn). |
 |
JCell:
Modelling Gene Regulatory Networks - Inference of regulatory
networks from microarray data and simulation of pattern formation in
Artificial Life (C. Spieth). |
 |
Modeling
Gene Expression - Our aim is to construct models of gene
regulatory networks by analyzing and integrating signals from various
experiments (J. Supper). |
 |
ModuleMaster
- Searching cis-regulatory modules by integrating
promoter analysis and multivariate regression on microarray expression
data with a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm. (C. Wrzodek, A.
Schröder). |
 |
Optimizing
Metabolic Pathways - Reconstruction and Modeling of kinetic
dependencies in metabolic pathways of E. coli and C.
glutamicum (A. Dräger) |
|
Identification
of biomarkers for type 2 diabetes
from mass spectrometry data using machine learning learning approaches
(H. Franken) |
 |
Spher4Sys:
A Systems biology based approach for preclinical lead compound
development using an in-vivo like spheroid test system (J. Eichner) |
