AI to guide Science & Geometric Deep Learning of Surfaces

On March 8 the NWO Domain Board Science has approved nineteen grant applications in the Open Competition Domain Science-M programme, two of which for projects within EEMCS. Sebastijan Dumancic will research how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help scientists with discovering explanations for natural phenomena. Klaus Hildebrandt will work on geometric convolutional neural networks to see how they can help solve difficult problems in surface analysis and processing. Although already existing, these methods are still under development and need to be further developed before they can be widely used in practice.
