Embedded Machine Learning (2019-2026, Christian Doppler Laboratory)
The CD Lab will conduct embedded machine learning research with the following target applications: Object identification in still and moving images, and scene analysis and recognition.
Project partners:
Several industrial research projects/contract research.
Our research activities range from object detection and tracking to obstacle detection, from fine-grained classification to semantic segmentation, and from pose estimation to superresolution.
HighScene (2021-2024, FFG Mobilität der Zukunft)
Online scenario generation from motorway video infrastructure.
The goals of High-Scene are, on the one hand, to increase road safety (reduce the number of accidents) and, on the other hand, to improve and increase the realism of simulations of automated driving.
Project partners:
INTERACT (2020-2023, FFG Mobilität der Zukunft)
Improved holistic assessment of pedestrian protection.
The aim of INTERACT is to improve the effectivity assessment of active pedestrian safety systems, which contributes to the prevention of pedestrian accidents and the reduction of injury severities.
Project partners:
Automated Pedestrian Traffic Light (2021-2024)
Model and hardware improvements for the next generation traffic lights which use object detection, tracking and intent prediction to optimize pedestrian traffic flow and automatically control traffic lights.
Project partners:
DigiColl (2020-2023, FFG Smart Cities)
The aim of the project is to introduce a nationwide smart digital waste collection system in order to have a lasting effect on the separation behaviour and to optimise collection routes. An essential aspect of this is the transition from analogue waste collection to a smart service for citizens, who will be integrated bidirectionally into the waste disposal processes.
Project partners:
KI-Waste (2021-2023, Green Tech 100)
Climate and environmental protection has top priority in Styria. In order to make a sustainable contribution, modern processes in an innovative circular economy are required. In the KI-Waste project, the recycling process in waste management is to be fundamentally and sustainably modernized. Using artificial intelligence, data generated by image recognition in waste processing is jointly analyzed with time series data in order to re-model and optimize the overall process in the recycling machines.
