Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften 2023 – Meet Pepper
Who is Pepper? The humanoid robot we use in our labs helps us understand social interactions between robots and humans, and if it’s easy to see why that works so

Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften 2023 – Mohsen Raoufi, “Meet the Swarm Robots”
Swarms, such as schools of fish, and flocks of birds, have shown a great capability of solving complex problems in nature. Such examples are bees finding the best nest site,
Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften 2023 – The wandering eye: An experiment on visual search
We constantly move our eyes, approximately three times per second, and even more if we search for something. We do this to place individual objects into the region where we
Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften 2023 – Exzellentes Pub Quiz
Together with the other six Berlin Clusters of Excellence, we are organizing a quiz night: the Excellent Pub Quiz! This event is expected to attract team players, puzzle enthusiasts, and
Mohsen Raoufi (Science of Intelligence), From State Estimation to Collective Estimation, and from Individuality to Complexity in Swarm Robotic Systems
Using swarm optimization algorithms as heuristic solutions in various engineering problems, including the state estimation of nonlinear systems, has been an inspiration to me for my SCIoI project. We started
Jörg Raisch (Science of Intelligence), “Efficient Consensus over Wireless Channels & and its Use in Traffic Automation Problems”
MAR 2.057Consensus algorithms are routinely employed in a variety of multi-agent scenarios. They require that each agent iteratively evaluates a multivariate function of its neighbours’ information states. If a wireless communication channel
Michael Taborsky, “The Evolution of Social Behaviour”
Abstract: The social structure and behaviour of organisms is highly divergent. How can this stunning diversity in nature be explained? I will argue that a few key principles are responsible
Santiago Paternain, “Safe Learning for Dynamical Systems and Control”
Abstract: Reinforcement learning has shown great success in controlling complex dynamical systems. However, when training a policy, most algorithms only consider a single objective function. While this may suffice in
Lisa-Kristin Richter, “Model Training for Facial Recognition of Raccoons”
MAR 2.057Machine learning tools have already been used to identify individual animals such as but not limited to pandas, black bears, cows and dogs. These tools can help to improve the
Olaf Hellwich (Science of Intelligence), “State Vectors of Computer Vision at Time t=now. Perspectives, Particles and Predictions”
MAR 2.057We take varying perspectives to the state of the art in Computer Vision: e.g. from SCIoI, disciplinary and interdisciplinary viewpoints. Sampling from the multi-modal state vector distribution, we inspect currently
Science of Intelligence Fair 2023
The first conference and exhibition of the Cluster of Excellence Science of Intelligence (SCIoI) in Berlinwas held in September 2023. Leading experts from science and politics, as well as journalists
Conor Heins, “Collective behavior from surprise minimization”
MAR 2.057Abstract: Collective motion is a familiar sight in nature; groups of distinct, self-propelled individuals appear to move as a coherent whole, exhibiting a rich behavioral repertoire that ranges from directed
