In the 34th episode of the "All Day Research" podcast, we welcome Prof. Dr. Heike Trautmann, who talks to our host Marvin Beckmann about data stream mining, machine learning and optimization.
Mathematical modelling in the form of reality-based text tasks, in which the respective questions are answered using mathematical means, is an important part of school education. However, many pupils find it difficult to solve modelling problems. The "ViMo" research project, in which scientists from Paderborn University and the University of Münster are working together, aims to support them and develop suitable methods to improve their modelling…
In the 33rd episode of the "All Day Research" podcast, students Adrian Block and Lukas Ostermann talk to Dr. Harald Selke, Head of the Student Office, about the reaccreditation of the Computer Science degree program.
The results of the DFG Review Board election have been announced: Prof. Dr Matthias Bauer, Prof. Dr Claudia Schmidt, Prof. Dr Werner Homberg, Prof. Dr Elmar Moritzer, Prof. Dr Eric Bodden and Prof. Dr Christian Plessl from Paderborn University have been elected to the various committees of the German Research Foundation (DFG) for the 2024 to 2028 term of office. "I am very pleased for our researchers. The election recognises their research…
Dynamic systems play a central role in countless technical applications, e.g. in autonomous vehicles, aeroplanes or the energy grid. Data-based methods have become increasingly important in this field in recent years, meaning that interdisciplinarity is playing an ever more central role. This is how Junior Professor Dr Sebastian Peitz and Dr Oliver Wallscheid, who have been cooperating closely on a scientific level for a long time, came up with…
Researchers at Paderborn University are involved in a pioneering Europe-wide project seeking to improve safety, health and environmental standards in ship recycling. To achieve this, partners from science and industry are taking a new approach using robotics and AI systems. The project was launched in January for a period of four years, and has received a total of nearly eight million euros of funding from the European Union (EU), of which…
The math circle of the University of Paderborn serves to promote young mathematical talent and will meet in spring/summer 2024 on Saturdays April 20, 2024, May 4, 2024 and June 8, 2024, each from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., online with the video conferencing software Zoom.
"From my own experience and through exchanges with other academics, I know that there is still a lot to be done for equal opportunities and justice, and I would like to help," says Dr. Charlene Weiß.
In the 32nd episode of the "All Day Research" podcast, we welcome Dietrich Gerstenberger who talks to our host Marvin Beckmann about the study centre for computer science (LZI) and the science that goes with it.
For around three years, Paderborn University has been one of Germany's national high-performance computing centers - and thus at the forefront of university high-performance computing (HPC). The Paderborn supercomputer "Noctua 2" and the academic support of the experts are used by scientists throughout Germany for highly complex calculations. 140,000 compactly installed processor cores in the supercomputer make this possible.

Exceptional research topics, outstanding theses and special social commitment - every year, Paderborn University recognizes special achievements by its young academics and students.
The stuff of science fiction films: For decades, so-called "programmable matter" has inspired filmmakers and cinema enthusiasts worldwide. It is able to change its shape and properties, such as color, form and elasticity, either independently or based on external influences.
Prof. Dr. Sevag Gharibian, head of the Quantum Informatics group, has published a guest article in the ACM SIGACT News. Gharibian addresses a broad audience of theoretical computer scientists and uses NP (non-deterministic polynomial time) as a cornerstone of complexity theory.
