Work with Us
Process for Projects and BA/MA Theses
- Familiarize yourself with the topic you like to work on
- Apply via our Application Form
- Upon acceptance, start working on the topic
- Give a kickoff presentation
- Write a project report/thesis
- Give a final presentation/defense

Research Topics
You can find a list of possible topics in our OVGU cloud.
Some topics with one-sentence summaries can also be found below (to be updated):
- Spatial Canonicalisation [PDF]
Even marginally transformed input signals can break downstream performance of many deep neural nets. You can test this yourself by training a classifier on Fashion-MNIST and test it on rotated images. This spatial brittleness can have severe impacts in the real-world. Think about the imperfect landscape of street signs and a vision model to recognise them. Canonicalisation aims to rectify the inputs of the downstream model by removing spatial distortions during test time.

- Traffic Light Control [PDF]
Optimising traffic lights in cities using deep learning is a new but highly promising avenue. We use traffic simulation to train Deep Reinforcement Learning agents and Graph Neural Networks on traffic densities to predict the next traffic light states (green or red) to optimise traffic flow and minimise traffic jams.
