Cest - Center For Electrochemical Surface Technology

CEST Competence Center

Institute Of Advanced Research In Artificial Intelligence Iarai

The Institute advances basic and applied research in Artificial Intelligence. We are building a unique environment of world class researchers and industrial scale real-world data openly shared with the scientific community. With critical analyses and fundamental studies we seek novel insights that shape the future of our society. Focus areas include climate change, smart cities, sustainable mobility, fleet management, and helping discover new drugs. World Simulation The spectacular success of modern control theory realized by reinforcement learning suggests that many real-world problems can be solved via a new paradigm of simulation or gamification. Averting climate change, making mass-mobility sustainable through smart city control and large-scale fleet management, building safe self-driving cars, or revolutionizing any real-world logistics problem. At IARAI, we build powerful simulators from industrial-scale real-world data advancing learning strategies or test one-shot/few-shot learning to help solve some of humanity most pressing problems. Prediction trough description Recent advances in modern machine learning allow exploiting Big Data to study complex challenges that were unsolvable before. At IARAI we focus on pressing problems with great impact on society and the planet. We can now, for instance, predict patterns in urban traffic or large-scale rainfall, assess climate change, classify biomedical images, and help discover new drugs. A theory of AI The field of machine learning has undergone a revolution: well-known black box algorithms have shown their potential and now dominate methods delivering the state-of-the-art performance on many benchmark problems. What makes these algorithms black box is that we have no rigorous human intuitive understanding of their success. As a result, questions with no clear answer arise: What architecture should a neural network have to handle a certain new data type? How can one combine different networks effectively?

Institute Of Railway Infrastructure Design Tu Graz

Railroads are of increasing importance, especially since the modal split will develop towards rail in the future. However, the infrastructure is not able to grow at the same rate and must be adapted to the new requirements like higher train frequencies and higher loads. This is where the 2021 founded Institute of Railway Infrastructure Design, endowed by vaRS and headed by Ferdinand Pospischil, comes in. The institute’s core topics are research on low-maintenance superstructure types with high endurance and building up targeted measurement technology in the laboratory as well as in track.

Enas European Network In Aging Studies

One of the greatest challenges that today’s Western societies face is their radical demographic change resulting from the expanding human lifespan. The larger group of older people prompts a thorough reflection on the ways in which we experience and organize human life, more specifically, on the cultural meanings of the aging process, the theories and policies on aging. The European Network in Aging Studies (ENAS) facilitates sustainable international and multi-disciplinary collaboration among all researchers interested in the study of cultural aging. Members of the current executive board are: President: Eva-Maria Trinkaus (University of Klagenfurt) Vice President: Linda Hess (Univeristy of Augsburg) Executive director: Jacob Jewusiak (Newcastle University) Deputy Director: Emma Dominguez Rue (University of Lleida) Treasurer: Urša Marinšek (University of Graz) Deputy treasurer: Nina van der Sype (Ghent University)

Icc - Water & Health

The quality of water is of fundamental importance for human health in all areas of life. Unsafe drinking water is one of the top 10 global health risks. In order to meet this topic, the Interuniversity Cooperation Centre for Water and Health was founded in 2013. Partners are the TU Wien, the Medical University of Vienna and the Karl Landsteiner University of Health Sciences in Krems. Research and Teaching Our Centre has two main focuses – research and teaching at the international level and scientific expertise in the areas of water quality and health as a competent partner for both the public and private sector. Innovation Driven by a holistic approach, our activities emphasise on the development of innovative microbiological, molecular-biological, physical and chemical methods as well as numerical models for water quality investigation. Societal relevance Our scientific findings are used to derive effective and sustainable management policies related to the use of water such as for drinking, bathing, technical and medical purposes.

Pharmacoinformatics Research Group

Following a holistic pharmacoinformatic approach we combine structural modeling of proteins, structure-based drug design, chemometric and in silico chemogenomic methods, statistical modeling and machine learning approaches to develop predictive computational systems for transporters and ion channels. The validation and optimisation of the obtained in silico models by strong links to experimental groups is an integral part of these activities. Furthermore, we aim at developing tools for in vitro to in vivo translation and for toxicity prediction, thereby leveraging integrated life science data as provided by the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform. Research activities are complemented by strong educational activities, outlined in the doctoral program MolTag and in EUROPIN, a European PhD Program in Pharmacoinformatics. The main scientific aims of the Research Group deal with the molecular basis of promiscuous drug-protein interaction (off-pharmacologies) and the development and use of complex, non-linear methods in the drug discovery process. Currently our targets include several ABC-transporter, the hERG potassium channel, as well as the GABAA receptor. On a methodological basis, we work on computational models for prediction of toxicity endpoints as well as development of KNIME workflows for complex data analysis.
