Dynamische Systems-of-Systems für Smart Cities der Zukunft

Im Projekt DynaSoS beschäftigte sich das Fraunhofer IESE seit Anfang 2022 mit dynamischen Systems-of-Systems (SoS). Ein System von Systemen beschreibt eine Konstellation verschiedener Systeme, die ein gemeinsames Ziel erreichen wollen, das allerdings keines der Systeme alleine erreichen könnte. Im Bereich…

Causal inference: An introduction on how to separate causal effects from spurious correlations in data

While „correlation does not imply causation“, it is possible to identify causal effects even in data that does not come from randomized controlled trials. Our AI expert, Dr. Julien Siebert, just published a paper (link) on the applications of statistical…

What are Complex Systems? – Understanding and Assessing Complex Phenomena

Taking into account the complexity of the systems around us is the first step towards understanding them. In this post, our expert Dr. Julien Siebert (Fraunhofer IESE) describes the most important characteristics of complex systems from his point of view….

Agile Machine Learning-Prozesse für KMU

Agile Machine Learning-Prozesse können für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen (KMU) ein wahrer Erfolgsfaktor sein: Agile Praktiken haben sich als großer Vorteil bei der Entwicklung von Software-Systemen bewährt. Mit dem Wandel zu datengetriebenen Produkten und Dienstleistungen müssen nun jedoch diese Software-Entwicklungsprozesse…

Time Series Analysis: Outlier Detection

Time Traveling with Data Science: Outlier Detection (Part 3)

In our blog series on „Time Traveling with Data Science“, we previously introduced different tasks in time series analysis. In this blog post, we now present the task of Outlier Detection. Outliers are data so different from others that one…

Scope Compliance

Scope Compliance – Die Rolle des Anwendungskontexts im Machine Learning

Im Rahmen unserer Blogreihe »Scope Compliance« beschäftigen wir uns mit der Bedeutung des Anwendungskontexts im Machine Learning. Im ersten Beitrag klären wir ein häufig anzutreffendes Missverständnis auf und arbeiten seine Implikationen für die Praxis heraus. Sie erfahren, warum es entscheidend…

Time Series Analysis (Change Point Detection)

Time Traveling with Data Science: Focusing on Change Point Detection in Time Series Analysis (Part 2)

In the first blog post of our „Time traveling with data science“ series, we presented several tasks related to the analysis of time series. In this post, we dive into the task called „change point detection“.   Changes in time series or…

Time Traveling with Data Science: Focusing on Time Series Analysis (Part 1)

Time traveling with data science: In this blog series, we will cover some of the different techniques that make up time series analysis. This first post will provide an overview of the different types of analysis possible and answer the…

What does Paul Bocuse (French three-star-decorated chef) have to do with Data Science?

You wonder how a Data Scientist works? The data science process (i.e., building data-driven products such as recommendations systems, fraud detection systems, chatbots, etc.) is, in some sense, similar to what a chef like Paul Bocuse in a restaurant does…
