Lukas Michiels joins the ISAS lab.

Dr. Igor Gilitschenski becomes tenure track assistant professor for robotics at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto and at the Department of Mathematical and Computational Sciences at the University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM). He obtained his PhD degree at ISAS in April 2015 with the thesis Deterministic Sampling for Nonlinear Dynamic State Estimation.

Uwe D. Hanebeck is now author and coauthor of more than 500 publications in various high-ranking journals and conferences.

The lab has acquired a new multi-GPU server equipped with four high-end graphics cards, which will significantly simplify and accelerate the work on computationally intensive methods. Especially research related to deep learning applications will benefit from the new server. The server is equally accessible for both employees and students.

Marcel Reith-Braun joins the ISAS lab.

Dr.-Ing. Florian Pfaff was awarded with the SICK-science award 2018 for the Best Dissertation for his PhD thesis "Multitarget Tracking Using Orientation Estimation for Optical Belt Sorting".
The award ceremony will take place during the „50 Jahre Informatik“ celebrations on June 19 at the KIT.

Christopher Funk joins the ISAS lab.

Due to the outstanding project results, the IGF project 18798 N "Inside Schüttgut" (Verbesserung optischer Schüttgutsortierung durch simulationsgestützte Entwicklung von Trackingverfahren) was awarded the title project of the year 2019.
