Industry Pitch Talks Recap
Visit From AppliedAI and Atruvia AG
We hosted another edition of the MCML Pitchtalks with Industry – this time in collaboration with appliedAI and their partner Atruvia AG.
We heard insights from both academia and industry:
- Niklas Strauß (MCML Junior Member) talked about AI and Industry, emphasizing the gap between foundational research and real-world application
- Nico Weber (Atruvia AG) followed up with a talk about Vision-Language Models and Document Understanding
- Alireza Javanmardi (MCML Junior Member) presented his latest work on Conformal Prediction Frameworks
- Yunpu Ma (MCML Junior Member) tied it all together by connecting his research to Mingyang Ma’s (appliedAI) talk on AI Agents
We wrapped up the evening with conversations and pizza.
Thank you to Bernhard Pflugfelder, Regina Straub, and Mingyang Ma for this collaboration.
