Eyke Hüllermeier to Lead New DFG-Funded Research Training Group METEOR
LMU News
We are happy to share that Eyke Hüllermeier, MCML PI will serve as spokesperson of the newly funded Research Training Group METEOR.
Funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and launching in spring 2026, METEOR (Machine Learning and Control Theory: Exploring Synergies, Complementarities and Mutual Benefits) aims to connect two disciplines that have largely developed separately: machine learning and control theory. The program will explore how data-driven and model-based approaches can be combined to design AI systems that are robust, adaptive, explainable, and safe.
METEOR is a joint initiative by LMU and TUM and will offer a structured training environment for doctoral researchers at the interface of computer science, mathematics, and engineering.
Congrats from us!
