Our portfolio for the complete pipeline for AI supported data analysis
The quality of training data in the context of each application is decisive for the quality of the result. Our experience and the use of elementary data science methods, as well as tools that simplify data annotation by experts, are the basis for preparing a sufficient volume of big data and compiling adequate training sets.
AI solutions are only as good as the data with which they are trained. But good training data is often scarce, sometimes not even available at all or difficult/expensive to obtain. We support our company partners by artificially simulating the necessary data to train neural networks. Synthetic data is secure, anonymized and unbureaucratic. The artificially generated training data sets are characterized by very good data quality and thus help to accelerate innovation processes, for example by greatly reducing time-to-market due to their rapid availability.
We develop deep learning and machine learning technologies in close cooperation with our partners and customers in order to design targeted solutions for processing, analyzing and visualizing large volumes of data, multi-terabyte laser scan data and for analyzing images.
Decisions that are made by machines must remain intelligible, reliable and transparent for humans, particularly in sensitive areas such as medicine or in self-driving vehicles ("ethical AI"). We develop methods that make machine behaviour explainable and consequently provide transparency for complex decisions that are made with the aid of artificial intelligence. Our methods support the evaluation of security and stability of trained networks.
Our research centre has already produced several AI-based applications and patents, as well as high-impact publications in the fields of image analysis and data science, and the areas of application of digital radiology, neuroscience, life science,material science and manufacturing, and digital agriculture.

Pests and extreme weather affect grain growth and yields. Recording and analysing plant development provides the basis for the prevention of crop losses. VRVis is part of a project consortium developing a platform for agriculture with the aim of using functional imaging data for analysis and teaching skills in training courses.
Due to climate change, extreme weather events are becoming more frequent and new pests are establishing in agriculture. Together with three project partners, VRVis is developing a digital imaging system for plants that combines information from magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography and detects stress symptoms in plants at an early stage.
