AI Pontryagin or how neural networks learn to control complex systems
Lucas Böttcher
Optimal control of complex dynamical systems can be challenging due to cost constraints and analytical intractability. In our work, we propose a machine-learning-based control framework able to learn quasi-optimal control signals and steer complex high-dimensional dynamical systems towards a desired target state.
One magical morning in February, we received an email informing us that there would be an optional study trip in June (Corona willing) for MSc students in Management, Finance and Applied Data Science to Nova School of Business and Economics in Carcavelos, Portugal.

Sitong Ye
Right after the Pitch Session of Cooperation Project at the beginning of this semester, where companies introduced their challenges to be solved by us, I was already quite certain that Drooms, a leading IT Service company, was the company I wished to work with on their challenging data science problem in the field of object detection on contract documents.
Bei Datenanalysen in den Bereichen Ökonomie und Business spielt das Verständnis, die Selektion und die Aufbereitung der Daten eine entscheidende Rolle, um gute und valide Ergebnisse zu erzielen.
