2.01.369-C Selected Topics in Nanorobotics and Nanomanufacturing in Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM): Towards Intelligent Nanofactories The course times are not decided yet.
Description:
Description: This seminar introduces graduate students to the emerging field of SEM-enabled nanomanufacturing and nanorobotics, where scanning electron microscopes evolve from high-resolution imaging systems into intelligent, multifunctional nanofactories. By integrating tools such as Focused Ion Beam (FIB), Gas Injection Systems (GIS), and robotic nanopositioners, SEM platforms are now capable of precise additive and subtractive fabrication, in-situ manipulation, and real-time characterization at the micro- and nanoscale. These capabilities open new frontiers in fields ranging from nanomaterials research and MEMS/NEMS fabrication to biomedical microrobotics and adaptive sensing platforms. The seminar provides a systematic overview of experimental methods, fabrication strategies, and application scenarios, with an emphasis on understanding how materials can be patterned, sculpted, and assembled under vacuum with nanometer precision. Students will explore a broad array of nanomanufacturing techniques, including: • FIB milling for subtractive nanostructuring • GIS-assisted direct-write deposition for local additive manufacturing • Electromigration-induced material transport • Origami-inspired self-folding microstructures • Lab-on-fiber platforms integrating optics, sensing, and actuation Two in-depth case studies from recent research will be presented: 1. Nanorobotic origami structures fabricated inside SEM using FIB and GIS, enabling the creation of dexterous, self-folding micromanipulators. 2. Liquid metal droplet fabrication using electromigration and FIB sputtering, offering nanometer-scale control for contact angle measurements and soft microactuators. Students will select an individual topic for deeper exploration, which may be theoretical (e.g., modeling of sputtering dynamics, design of MEMS grippers), practical (e.g., concept design for SEM experiments), or even experimental for selected participants. Students are also encouraged to propose their own topics based on their interests. Where possible, hands-on experience can be offered, such as performing nanomanufacturing/nanocharacterization processes under SEM platform or using robotic tools for nano-manipulation tasks. In the second half of the semester, each student will give a presentation or demonstration of their selected topic and will receive feedback on both scientific content and English-language communication. Learning Objectives: • Gain a broad understanding of SEM-based nanomanufacturing tools and processes • Learn to compare and apply additive and subtractive fabrication methods • Analyze current trends in nanorobotics, microfabrication, and integrated platforms • Understand experimental workflows inside a high-vacuum SEM chamber • Develop English-language communication skills in nanotechnology contexts • Strengthen independent research, critical reading, and presentation capabilities 		Seminar - Dr. Yuning Lei

  • Thursday, 16:00 - 18:00, Weekly (from 09.04.26)

Description:
Das Modul richtet sich an Studierende, die bereits eine wissenschaftliche Vorbildung haben. Studierende sollen in das neue Recht der Forschung und Nutzung von Pflanzen eingeführt werden, das sie sowohl als angehende Wissenschaftler als auch als Mitarbeiter in der Industrie oder Verwaltung brauchen. Im Prinzip hatte bereits die Konvention über die Biologische Vielfalt (1992) den Grundsatz zum freien Zugang zu biologischen und genetischen Ressourcen völkerrechtlich aufgehoben. Durch die Umsetzung in Europa (2014) und den Ressourcenstaaten sind diese Regeln nun aber bindend geworden. Das hat weitreichende Konsequenzen für den Forschungsalltag und die Produktentwicklung. Diese neuartigen Regeln, in denen die internationale Kooperation schon zu Beginn der akademischen und kommerziellen Forschung zur Pflicht geworden ist, werden den Studierenden nahegebracht. Inhaltlich sind die folgenden Themengebiete für die Lehrveranstaltungen relevant: Internationale Rahmenbedingungen für den Zugang zu genetischen Ressourcen und Vorteilsausgleich EU-Recht und ausfüllende mitgliedstaatliche Regeln zur biologischen Forschung an und Nutzung von genetischen Ressourcen, Traditionellem Wissen und Technologietransfer Nationale Vorschriften der Ressourcenstaaten für das Aufsuchen genetischer Ressourcen bei wissenschaftlichen Feldstudien und kommerzieller Bioprospektion (z.B. Genehmigungspflichten; Prior Informed Consent; Mutually Agreed Terms; Due Diligence) Recht der verschiedenen kommerziellen, gesetzlichen und akademischen Ex-situ-Sammlungen genetischer Ressourcen (Practices of databases / Prinzipien und Praktiken der Datenbanken) Code of Conduct der deutschen Forschungseinrichtungen (vor allem DFG) Genetische Ressourcen und Geistiges Eigentum Good practices / Bewährte Verfahren (selected ex situ collections) ABS agreements (“Mutual Agreed Terms”)/ Verträge Legislative options / Legislative Optionen 		Seminar - Dr. Evanson Chege Kamau

Description:
Computer-based simulations play a key role for quantifying the economic impacts of policy reforms. Among numerical simulation methods, computable partial equilibrium (CPE) models are widely used in applied economic analysis. These models build on microeconomic theory for describing supply and demand behavior of economic agents on markets. Students will learn how to program such models and apply them to the impact assessment of trade, fiscal, or environmental policies. In the course, we start from basic microeconomic theory to describe the supply-side and demand-side responses on economic markets triggered by regulatory policy measures such as taxes or subsidies. We then translate simple theoretical models into computable partial equilibrium (CPE) models and use empirical data for model parametrization. Subsequently, the CPE models are used to quantify the economic efficiency impacts and the economic incidence of policy instruments such as taxes, subsidies, standards or quotas. For the implementation of the simulation models on the students’ PC we will learn a powerful state-of-the-art modeling language called GAMS (Generic Algebraic Modeling System) which initially had been developed for World Bank economists. The fundamental strength of GAMS lies in the ease with which algebraic models in economics and management (or other sciences) can be formulated and solved. Students enrolled to the course will receive a free GAMS license. For the examination, the students will be requested to adapt a basic market model towards a policy issue of their choice and provide a small written essay (max. 10 pages) on their applied analysis. For this, the students can team up in groups with 2 people and hand in their essay until the end of the summer semester. 		Lecture - Prof. Dr. Christoph Boehringer

  • Thursday, 14:00 - 16:00, Weekly (from 09.04.26)

Description:
This is a 6 ECTS lecture/seminar course designed to provide students with an introduction to the principles of energy economics and related policy applications. There are increasing concerns globally on the management of energy resources and their development, such as energy security, environmental impacts of energy use, regulation, investment in renewable energy, risk assessment or safety issues of nuclear power etc. Understanding the characteristics of the different energy markets in terms of demand, supply, investments, energy-economy-environment interactions, and related policy aspects is critical to effective policy intervention. This course covers the economic tools for analyzing institutions and driving forces of energy markets, including coal, natural gas, crude oil, gasoline/diesel, electricity, and renewables, with a focus on understanding supply and demand changes, prices, production, and investment as well as the motives and consequences of policy interventions. Students will be introduced to the environmental implications of energy use and the role of economic analysis in designing policies that address issues of energy security, climate change, and the distributive consequences of climate policies. Regarding the distributional impacts of climate policies, we will address theoretical concepts, including incidence or inequality and their measurement, and analyze the distributive effects of current climate policies. Throughout the course, theoretical discussions will be complemented with empirical evidence and research that explores different aspects of the energy markets to help students better understand the respective energy markets. Ancillary objectives of the course include supporting students to develop research topics and introducing them to academic writing. To this end, students will develop some expertise in working with real-world energy data and policies and writing a research paper. The course starts with a series of lectures on selected topics. The lecture sessions aim to facilitate the development of students’ understanding of the economic theory related to the various energy markets. Students will be guided to develop their research projects during the first half of the semester. The projects could be related to the distributive consequences of climate policies, inequality in adaptation to climate change, climate justice, market power and collusion in the retail fuel market, barriers to the adoption of renewable energy technologies, and challenges of renewables in the electricity market. Other topics include the impact of climate change on transportation systems, effects of overlapping energy and climate regulations, Russia-Ukraine war and energy poverty, Subjective Well-being and energy prices, Edgeworth cycles in the retail gasoline market, limits on domestic flights as emissions reduction strategy, the incidence and emissions impact of fuel tax in Germany, vertical vs. horizontal distributive effects of climate policies, incidence of climate policies – developed vs. developing countries etc. Note that students can choose topics listed or develop their own topics of interest. At the start of the second part of the course, students will present their tentative research projects and receive input from instructors. They will then use the remaining period to work on their research projects with the support of instructors. Towards the end of the semester, there will be a 2-day block seminar where students will present their work in a scientific conference format. 		Lecture - Prof. Dr. Emmanuel Asane-Otoo

2.01.813 Safety and Explainability of ML
  • Wednesday, 12:00 - 14:00, Weekly (from 08.04.26)

Description:
This seminar addresses two critical challenges in modern machine learning: ensuring that models behave reliably in real-world scenarios, and making their decisions understandable to humans. We explore techniques for analyzing and improving the safety of machine learning systems, including robustness to adversarial inputs, uncertainty estimation, and formal verification. In parallel, we examine methods for explainability, such as feature attribution (e.g., SHAP, LIME), counterfactual explanations, and surrogate models. The seminar includes presentations and discussions based on recent research papers in both areas. Students will gain familiarity with state-of-the-art methods, evaluation criteria, and open challenges, particularly in high-stakes domains such as autonomous systems, healthcare, and finance. The seminar is ideal for students interested in trustworthy AI, applied machine learning, formal methods, or human-centered AI. 		Seminar 2 Prof. Dr. Chih-Hong Cheng

2.02.195 Environment and Inequality: Socioeconomic Linkages and Policy Instruments
  • Monday, 12:00 - 14:00, Weekly (from 13.04.26)

Description:
Inequality and environmental matters are multidimensional, intertwined and complex. They might unfold self-enforcing negative effects on human wel- fare and wellbeing. In this sense, they affect economic growth, development, environment, education, health, social and political stability, etc. The current trends of inequality within and between countries are worrisome. At the same time, global warming and climate change severely and unequally affect human’s wellbeing and economies. Understanding and tackling these pressing problems should therefore be among the priorities of economists. Reducing poverty and inequality as well as fighting climate change are central elements of the sustainable development goals (2030 Agenda) and rank high in most policy agendas. However, while some policy measures designed to reduce poverty and inequality could negatively affect the environment, environmen- tal policies often cause undesirable distributional effects. The distributive ef- fects (‘incidence’) of environmental policies are indeed becoming increasingly important for the political feasibility of environmental policies addressing e.g. climate change or biodiversity loss. Against this background, a more holistic approach integrating climate actions with measures to reduce poverty and inequality is needed. In this course, we study these issues applying and extending state-of-the-art economic methods. Particularly, we consider insights of behavioral economics in order to provide a deeper and more integrated analysis of these highly intertwined themes. 		Lecture - Dr. Anelise Rahmeier Seyffarth

  • Wednesday, 22.04.26, 10:00 - 11:00 o'clock

Description:
We look at relevant theory and neuroscience foundations for guiding the development of high-performance systems. We discuss approaches to user modeling, interface design that supports user choice, synergistic combination of modalities with sensors, and blending of multimodal input and output. We also highlight an in-depth look at the most common multimodal-multisensor combinations- for example, touch and pen input, haptic and non-speech audio output, and speech co-processed with visible lip movements, gaze, gestures, or pen input. A common theme throughout is support for mobility and individual differences among users-including the world's rapidly growing population of seniors. This seminar would be most appropriate for graduate students, and of primary interest to students studying computer science and information technology, human–computer interfaces, mobile and ubiquitous interfaces, and related multidisciplinary majors. Central part of the seminar is the reference book "The Handbook of Multimodal-Multisensor Interfaces: Signal Processing, Architectures, and Detection of Emotion and Cognition - Volume 1" (https://dl.acm.org/doi/book/10.1145/3015783). At the beginning there will be an introduction to the subject. Everyone will receive a chapter, for which a presentation and a written elaboration (5-10 pages) are to be prepared.

  • Wednesday, 22.04.26, 11:00 - 12:00 o'clock

Description:
We begin with multimodal signal processing, architectures, and machine learning. It includes recent deep-learning approaches for processing multisensorial and multimodal user data and interaction, as well as context-sensitivity. A further highlight is processing of information about users' states and traits, an exciting emerging capability in next-generation user interfaces. We discuss real-time multimodal analysis of emotion and social signals from various modalities and perception of affective expression by users. Then we discuss multimodal processing of cognitive state using behavioral and physiological signals to detect cognitive load, domain expertise, deception, and depression. This collection of chapters provides walk-through examples of system design and processing, information on tools and practical resources for developing and evaluating new systems, and terminology, and tutorial support for mastering this rapidly expanding field. Finally, we look at experts' exchange views on the timely and controversial challenge topic of multimodal deep learning. The discussion focuses on how multimodal-multisensor interfaces are most likely to advance human performance during the next decade. This seminar is most appropriate for graduate students and of primary interest to students studying computer science and information technology, human-computer interfaces, mobile and ubiquitous interfaces, affective and behavioral computing, machine learning, and related multidisciplinary majors. Central part of the seminar is the reference book "The Handbook of Multimodal-Multisensor Interfaces: Signal Processing, Architectures, and Detection of Emotion and Cognition - Volume 2" (https://dl.acm.org/doi/book/10.1145/3107990).

  • Wednesday, 10:00 - 12:00, Weekly (from 08.04.26)

Description:
This master-level seminar explores the theoretical principles underlying the safety, robustness, and alignment of modern AI systems. Students will engage with cutting-edge research on adversarial robustness, distribution shift, formal verification of neural networks, safe reinforcement learning, and foundational alignment theory. Each week focuses on a topic, with students leading presentations and discussions to critically analyze assumptions, guarantees, and limitations of current approaches. The seminar emphasizes rigorous reasoning, mathematical foundations, and formal models of safety-relevant behavior. Students will gain a deep understanding of the theoretical challenges in making learning-enabled autonomous systems reliable, predictable, and certifiably safe. We expect the students to deliver a 1.5~2-hour lecture on a specific topic, making minimal assumptions about participants' knowledge of linear algebra, probability, and statistics. After the lecture, the participants can fully understand the underlying principles while using examples serving as intuitions. This course is suitable for those who wish to enter the frontier of artificial intelligence research or join leading industrial labs. The solid mathematics and analytical skills will be a great plus for your future career. 		Seminar 2 Prof. Dr. Chih-Hong Cheng
