Chitchanok Chuengsatiansup moved from the University of Melbourne to the University of Klagenfurt at the end of 2024 with the aim of continuing her work on optimised cryptographic codes that accomplish several goals: While maintaining the security offered by the design, the computational resources required to execute cryptographic code and the overheads to integrate such code into different systems should be minimal.
The special research area “Mathematics of Reconstruction in Dynamical and Active Models”, funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF, was launched in March 2025. Researchers from the University of Klagenfurt, led by Barbara Kaltenbacher (Department of Mathematics), will be contributing their expertise on inverse problems. The aim is to develop new mathematical tools for active, dynamic and model-based imaging modalities.
Traditionally, wind turbines have to be shut down before they can be inspected for damage. This means that these wind turbines do not generate energy during the shutdown period. Furthermore, inspection costs for wind turbines tend to be high. The DORBINE project, funded by the FFG, involves a research team from the University of Klagenfurt working with industrial partner AIR6 SYSTEMS to develop a new technology that uses artificial intelligence to control swarms of drones that inspect wind turbines while they are in operation.
You have enrolled and are already looking forward to your first day at university? Then use the following tips and recommendations to get off to a perfect start at the University of Klagenfurt!
Patrick Rodler wurde am 13. Dezember 2024 neben Josef Winkler, Cristina Beretta und Franz Hartlieb mit dem Kulturpreis des Landes Kärnten geehrt. Peter Kaiser dankte den Kärntner Kunst- und Kulturschaffenden […]
The Info Days of the Austrian Students’ Union (ÖH) at the University of Klagenfurt/Celovec, the lobby group in university politics for all students at our university, will support you on 29 and 30 January 2025 before the start of the semester with advice on all aspects of studying.
In her Master’s thesis, mathematician Celina Strasser sought to solve the longest path problem using reinforcement learning, a method drawn from the field of Artificial Intelligence. Her work was honoured with the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research Award in 2024.
Alessandro Fornasier’s work involves helping robots and drones to navigate the world. As part of his PhD project, he used the theory of ‘equivariant systems’ to develop localisation algorithms that are more robust and accurate. In recognition of his research in the Control of Networked Systems working group, he has now been honoured with the ‘Award of Excellence’ presented by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research.
Kseniia Harshina (Department of Information Technology) is developing a virtual reality game that explores issues of forced migration and flight. The project is part of the Ada Lovelace Programme, which supports young researchers who are conducting interdisciplinary research in the context of “Humans in the Digital Age”.
To explore new terrain and perform tasks autonomously, be it in the air, on the ground or under water, robotic vehicles need to know where they are and what their surroundings are like. As part of his research for his doctorate, Christian Brommer, a member of the research group ‘Control of Networked Systems’ at the University of Klagenfurt, has developed a modular and robust framework model that is designed to maximise the autonomy of robotic vehicles exploring unknown terrain.
The Test of Time Award recognises publications that were published 10 years ago and have had a lasting and substantial impact on research in a particular specialist field. As part of the ICLP (International Conference on Logic Programming) in mid-October in Dallas/Texas, Martin Gebser (Department of Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity) was honoured for a paper that he published with co-authors in 2014.
The Info-Days of the Österreichische Hochschüler:innenschaft (ÖH) Klagenfurt, the lobby group in university politics for all students at our university, will support you on 28 and 29 August and 25 and 26 September 2024 before the start of the semester with advice on all aspects of studying.
