Lecture: Life-long Machine Learning (03-IMAP-LLML, 6 ECTS) – SoSe 25

Mon 16:00-18:00 & Wed 10:00-12:00

Whereas machine learning has traditionally concentrated on static pre-defined training datasets and respective test scenarios, recent advances also take into account the fact that the world is constantly evolving. The course traverses the fundamentals of lifelong machine learning, spanning methodology of how to effectively learn in the present, remember the past, and anticipate an unknown future.

Seminar: Modern Perspectives on AI Sustainability (03-IMS-SUSAI, 3 ECTS) – SoSe 25

Thu 10:00-12:00

The seminar will cover the different aspects of AI sustainability. Students will get to engage with a variety of modern perspectives. Throughout the seminar, they will learn to critically engage with current assessments on AI’s impact, analyze the validity of claims with respect to economical, environmental and social sustainability, and separate opportunities from unaddressed harms.

Project: MOCCA (03-AI-PJ-MOCCA, 12 ECTS) – SoSe 25 & WiSe 25/26

Fri 10:00-12:00

In the Multi-Objective Continual Coffee Automation (MOCCA) student project, we will make use of various machine learning tools to go from a package of coffee beans to drinks that are catered to individual preferences. This involves several crucial steps that will be pursued in the project, spanning data acquisition & dataset creation, continual machine learning, inclusion of preferences and natural language feedback.
