Prof. Dr. Anita Schöbel and Dr. Henrike Stephanie look back on the past five years in their interview. Among other things, they explain why Rhineland-Palatinate is particularly well suited for researching and applying AI in mobility and what their work as AI pilots looked like in the first phase.

Many companies are saving time and materials by using artificial intelligence. To ensure that small and medium-sized companies also benefit from sustainable AI innovations, the state of Rhineland-Palatinate is supporting them with the new »KI4KMU-RLP« program. Companies in Rhineland-Palatinate can now apply for the pilot phase.

Prof. Dr. Anita Schöbel, Institute Director of Fraunhofer ITWM, together with Prof. Dr. Jürgen Franke from RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau, has published the book »Statistical Machine Learning for Engineering with Applications«”, which provides an accessible introduction to the concepts and methods of machine learning.

A team from Saarland University and the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) wants to make AI more energy-efficient in order to improve the ecological AI footprint.

Regular maintenance is important to keep machines usable for longer and save repair costs. Condition-based maintenance is the way forward: sensors measure the condition of the machines so that maintenance is carried out in a targeted manner and not too often. The project is part of the Sustainability and Resource Efficiency innovation area of the Open Digitalization Alliance Palatinate.

The Waste2BioComp project is developing innovative solutions for converting waste into compostable packaging, sustainable footwear or textiles in order to reduce dependence on fossil materials and drive forward the circular economy.

Improving healthcare, relieving the burden on medical professionals and advancing research in Germany: The three-year research project »FHIR-Starter« is dedicated to these goals. At the heart of the project is the development of a software service.
