Computer Vision Group Jena

The Chair of Digital Image Processing contributes to international research in the areas of image analysis/machine learning, unstructured data processing and causality. The current focus is on active and continuous learning, the development of hybrid models and knowledge integration in the context of deep learning methods as well as the handling of biased datasets and models (dataset and model bias). Causal modelling and analysis is one of the methodological drivers that are investigated, also to explain results of deep models and to arrive at a better uncertainty estimate of the results. The methods are applied with partners from different disciplines on the basis of the questions they pose, e.g. in the fields of ecology, psychology or medicine. One of the focal points is the cooperation with the project partners of the ENT department of the University Hospital Jena and the IPHT in the field of analysis and classification of tumour tissue.

Visualisation and Explorative Data Analysis Group

The aim of the visualisation group is to visualise data for better research and analysis. They work closely with experts in various fields to develop visualisation techniques that support their research. They use advanced 3D rendering on modern graphics hardware to gain insight into the data.

Institute of Physical Chemistry

The Institute of Physical Chemistry is a spectroscopy-oriented research institute focussing on the development, application and theoretical description of innovative frequency-, time- and spatially-resolved spectroscopic methods from the UV to the radio wave range.
