Replacing AI training with Math Methods

Artificial neural networks are becoming increasingly large and complex – and therefore require more and more energy for training with data. A research team led by Felix Dietrich, Professor of Physics-Enhanced Machine Learning at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), is working on replacing training steps with mathematical methods. This reduces power consumption and helps to better understand how artificial intelligence (AI) works…

AI Day at the University of Bayreuth

On February 7, 2025, the AI Day took place at the University of Bayreuth – an inspiring event with exciting lectures, practical presentations and lively discussions about artificial intelligence and data science. Scientists and experts from business and research came together to discuss current developments, use cases and challenges in this dynamic field.

“Helma” already records massive workload

Early access to the new “Helma” AI cluster at NHR@FAU is in progress and already recording high usage and massive workloads on the system. The first half of the supercomputer is currently in an intense testing phase and will go into open access in the first half of 2025. As the monitoring visualizes, the capacities of the system were almost fully used on January 7…

“Blue Lion”: HPE to build next supercomputer at LRZ

The new supercomputer “Blue Lion” is part of the German national HPC infrastructure of the Gauss Center for Supercomputing and will serve a wide range of research projects, combining classic simulations with artificial intelligence. Please read the press release of HPE. Blue Lion is scheduled to go live in early 2027 and deliver 30X faster performance…
