involves participation in
research activities of a ZIM funded joint project of the
Institute of Cognitive
Science and AIM GmbH, Hannover. The project aims at developing a
new generation
of decision support technologies for logistics. To this end,
data from
heterogeneous sources have to be integrated and used for
predicting demands and
potential bottlenecks in business processes. The system’s
decisions have to be
presented in a comprehensible and transparent way to the user.
Our overall goal
is to develop scalable and explainable AI and machine learning
methods for
planning logistical processes.</span></p>
