Professorship for Information Systems, in particular Artificial Intelligence and Explainability
Organisational unit: Professoship
Organisation profile
The research group on Artificial Intelligence and Explainability focuses on hybrid AI methods to make machines understand human-created data. That is, we combine modern, sub-symbolic machine learning approaches with symbolic knowledge engineering based on Knowledge Graphs to develop transparent AI systems. We focus on Knowledge Extraction, Speech Assistants, Question Answering, AI ethics, and more.
