LMU News

The Munich Center for Machine Learning (MCML), a joint initiative of LMU and TUM, has been granted funding as a permanent establishment following a positive evaluation.

«MCML offers a very attractive scientific environment with excellent opportunities for cooperation. Obtaining permanent funding from the federal and state governments is a great success and testifies to the outstanding quality of MCML. It enables participating scientists in Munich to further advance their machine learning research projects.»
(Professor Bernd Huber - LMU President )

«The decision by federal and state governments to make MCML a permanently funded center of excellence is a clear marker of the success of our One Munich strategy. By pooling our strengths, we want to drive forward future development in the domain of artificial intelligence. This will make Munich an even stronger magnet for young talents.»
