The special research area “Mathematics of Reconstruction in Dynamical and Active Models”, funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF, was launched in March 2025. Researchers from the University of Klagenfurt, led by Barbara Kaltenbacher (Department of Mathematics), will be contributing their expertise on inverse problems. The aim is to develop new mathematical tools for active, dynamic and model-based imaging modalities.
Since the pandemic, working out at home in front of the computer has become a habit for many. But are these exercises, be they for rehabilitation or athletic purposes, being performed correctly? Roman Dorrek is developing software that can identify whether individual movements are being performed in the most beneficial way possible.
Wheelchair users find stairs and steps difficult to navigate, preventing them from access to all areas. Similarly, people with impaired vision find life more difficult when there are no tactile floor markings. Kathrin Arndt is a student member of the EU Erasmus+ Project INDICO, which aims to make it easier for people with learning difficulties to access the digital world. In response to the question of what the metaphorical stairs and missing floor markings represent for people with learning difficulties, we learn: “For our target group, the language we use online is a barrier. If we want to enable people with learning difficulties to participate in the digital space on an equal footing, we need what is known as simple language.”
In recent years, fitness influencers have become important advocates for healthy and athletic behaviour, often with significant advertising value for sports brands. A research team at the University of Klagenfurt recently investigated who benefits from the work of these fitness ambassadors.
