Joint Lab for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science

The University of Osnabrück and the Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering and Bioeconomy (ATB) in Potsdam are now jointly training doctoral students at the interface of agricultural science and artificial intelligence. The cooperation is supported by the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture (MWK) funded through the zukunft.niedersachsen program of the Volkswagen Foundation with around 6.7 million euros. The associated partners are Agrotech Valley Forum, German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) and Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences. The core objective of the Joint Lab KI & DS is to develop artificial intelligence (AI) and data science (DS) expertise, especially for agricultural technology issues.
