Projects

Task 1.2.1 – Capture the Competences and information Flow:Development of intelligent statistical data pre-processing methods for semiconductor manufacturing. Probabilistic graphical modeling, in close cooperation with the group of Prof. Reiner, will be used to infer the dependence structures and dimension reduction schemes.Task 1.2.2 – Dynamic Knowledge UpdateDevelopment of intelligent learning algorithms to extract relevant information out of big data sets with a focus on adaptive and networked (smart) production systems, in cooperation with the group of Prof. Reiner. Particular attention will be paid to Bayesian regularization methodsExtract key parameters for process control from results of Statistical Machine Learning and Bayes Deep Learning algorithms, in close cooperation with the KnowCenter groupDevelopment of Bayesian ensemble filtering and data assimilation methods incorporating the observations and process dynamics through sequential posterior updating (modified Bayes Kalman filters), Monitoring of probability distributions as data summaries instead of only using selected key numbers of raw datCombination of methods of active learning and model choice to take account of covariate shift (Bayes statistical learning in non-stationary environments)Task 1.2.3 – Knowledge ValidationValidation of KPIs for decision making support with a focus on adaptive and networked (smart) production systems, in close cooperation with the group of Prof. Reiner:Validation of key parameters to increase acceptance of data driven methods in semiconductor manufacturing environmentValidation of knowledge about dependencies between advanced dynamic screening methods and production system performance: In particular, we will investigate the use of empirical Bayes estimation of posterior probabilities of enrichment for controlling the False Discovery Rate (FDR)Task 1.3.2 – Data Driven Methods (AI, Deep Learning, Black-Box Modeling, etc.)Development and integration of data driven methods to support and enable an effective root cause analysis of yield loss (Functional ANOVA Decompositions, Approximate Inference Algorithms)Development of novel Bayesian variational and perturbation methods and their integration into structured predictors and deep learners of production performance characteristics (Bayes deep learning)Task 1.3.3 - Validation of AI approaches:Jointly with KAI and the group of Prof. Reiner, we will work on the validation of the implemented routines from Task 1.3.2 by comparing expert results and results of data driven methods with regard to accuracy, robustness, etc.With regard to the joint work on the tasks within UC1 (WP 1, 4), we will further focus on relating (raw data) machine parameters and SPC parameters through Canonical Correlation Analysis and the choice of a “best” set of training data.

Im Görtschitztal soll ein privates Sensormessnetz für Umweltdaten wie Luftfeuchtigkeit, Temperatur, Druck, Wind, Niederschlag, Nebel, Lichtintensität, NO2, S02, CO, CO2, O2, NHO§, NH3, PM und Schwermetalle aufgebaut und instand gehalten werden. Die elektronische Sensorik basiert auf Arduino, Waspmote und Raspberry. Zum Nachvollziehen der Umweltbelastungen kommen Methoden der Räumlichen Statistik und Umweltstatistik zum Einsatz.

Researchers from Geography and Statistics at the Alpen-Adria-University aim to promote crowd meteorological data collection in Klagenfurt am Wörthersee to investigate local spatial differences and particle distribution across the city in function of the meteorological conditions using mathematical models. An initial amount of 10 meteorological stations will be installed by staff and students from the University starting in 2018 onwards. Through user-friendly weather stations and the Internet of Things technology, “amateur” users can download automated sub-hourly observations, store electronically and carry on easy analysis and data sharing through an online platform.Members of the project will carried out local analytics and after aggregation of the information applications to smart cities, smart environment, security, smart metering and smart agriculture would be possible.

Im Gegensatz zu den klassischen sequentiellen SI-Aufnahmeverfahren ermöglichen Snapshot Spectral Imaging-Verfahren die Erfassung der räumlichen und der spektralen Informationen durch die Aufnahme eines einzelnen Bildes. Ziel des Projekts ist die Entwicklung statistischer Methoden und Algorithmen zur Trennung überlappender Emissionsspektren (spectral unmixing), insbesondere für Vielkanalanwendungen. Als diagnostische Anwendung ist vom Projektpartner Tissue Gnostics (Wien) der Bereich der Prostatakrebserkennung vorgesehen; die Projektkoordination erfolgt duch das CTR Villach.
