From 12 to 17 February, it’s time again for the annual Love Data Week – With exciting events and activities around the world as well as at the DSC!

The Data Science Center (DSC) of the University of Bremen and Mahidol University AI Center signed a Memorandum of Understanding to promote cooperative research and academic exchange in the field of data science between the institutions.

As part of the pilot study, an algorithm that automatically tags news articles with specific location and topic keywords will be developed and tested.

On 13 and 14 of October data stewards from all over Germany will come together at the TU Braunschweig for a workshop on research data management. Dr. Sandra Zänkert is going to represent the DSC and will give an insight into the process of establishing domain-specific data stewardship.

The use of deep learning in IoT and Edge Computing devices creates new challenges. With an advanced ML-method, the power consumption of graphic cards can be determined during the development phase.

On 30 and 31 August, experts will discuss about open science at the Open Science Festival at Leibniz Universität Hannover. The DSC will also be present at the festival – Meet us at the marketplace at stand 17!

As part of this year’s summer holiday programme of the “Haus der Wissenschaft” (House of Science), students got the opportunity to learn how to visualize complex issues with the help of sketchnotes. With his talk, Prof. Dr. Rolf Drechsler provided an insight into the field of data science.

From June 22 till 24 the fourth International Data Power Conference took place. This year’s conference was focused around the overarching topic of “Dialogues in Data Power”. The event was financially supported by the DSC.

As a new Data Steward, Heike will from now on support scientists in the field of social sciences and humanities with the management of research data.

We are excited to announce the publication of a novel Natural Language Processing approach at the SKILL student conference, which was developed in a bachelor thesis at DSC.
