The DoDSc consolidates existing competences and resources in data science at the TU Dortmund. It serves as a networking platform for the participating scientists in order to strengthen the interdisciplinarity of existing projects and to initiate future large-scale research projects.
There are already many activities at TU Dortmund on which to build: The newly established Competence Center Machine Learning as well as the Collaborative Research Centers 823 and 876, whose activities will be continued in the future and consolidated within the center.
