AIPHES

10. December 2014

New research training group funded by DFG: AIPHES (Adaptive Information Processing from Heterogeneous Sources). This is a collaboration between the CS Department at the Technical University of Darmstadt, the Institute for Computational Linguistics at the University of Heidelberg and the NLP Group at HITS. We’ll focus on concept disambiguation in relation with discourse processing and sentiment analysis.

About HITS

HITS, the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies, was established in 2010 by physicist and SAP co-founder Klaus Tschira (1940-2015) and the Klaus Tschira Foundation as a private, non-profit research institute. HITS conducts basic research in the natural, mathematical, and computer sciences. Major research directions include complex simulations across scales, making sense of data, and enabling science via computational research. Application areas range from molecular biology to astrophysics. An essential characteristic of the Institute is interdisciplinarity, implemented in numerous cross-group and cross-disciplinary projects. The base funding of HITS is provided by the Klaus Tschira Foundation.
