Volkswagen participates in DFKI and becomes a partner (shareholder). In a joint carrier project for cps for smart factories, Volkswagen and DFKI have started to develop a software framework to allow for new collaborative HRI (human-robot interaction) scenarios.
Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) enables continuous and non-invasive biodiversity monitoring, but analysing large acoustic datasets remains difficult because sound event detectors usually require temporally precise annotations. Creating such instance-level labels is expensive and requires expert Read more
Visual-Language-Action (VLA) models are typically trained through imitation learning, which teaches policies to reproduce demonstrated actions but provides limited supervision about the conditions that define task success. We propose a framework that automatically extracts executable Read more
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) has become a powerful tool for studying wildlife by continuously recording environmental soundscapes. However, analysing large acoustic datasets remains highly time-consuming, as recordings are often annotated manually by domain experts. In Read more
