How can artificial intelligence (AI) support museums in digitally unlocking their collections? This question is being addressed by the joint project “AI in Museums”, in which our lab is involved. The Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture (MWK) is funding the project, led by Jade University of Applied Sciences Wilhelmshaven/Oldenburg/Elsfleth, with a total of around 2.25 million euros over [...]
How can the literary treasures found in texts from the Early New High German period (ca. 1350–1650) be made available and useful for future research in all their breadth and depth? The interdisciplinary joint project EDIKILEX – Edition, Artificial Intelligence, and Lexicography aims to meet this challenge through innovative applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI). At the heart of the project [...]
How can science uphold integrity in an era where large language models (LLMs) can seamlessly disguise stolen ideas? The renowned journal Spektrum der Wissenschaft explores this question in its recent article “Das Katz-und-Maus-Spiel um die Redlichkeit” (“Cat-and-Mouse Game with Integrity”). The piece features our latest research on tackling the evolving challenges of plagiarism detection in a digital world with [...]
The National Institute of Informatics (NII) in Tokyo is Japan’s premier computer‑science research institute across different research areas. Through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the University of Göttingen, master’s students and PhD candidates can conduct paid research internships or master’s thesis projects in Tokyo. The GippLab cooperates with NII to offer research stays lasting two to six months, funded [...]

How can we use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to fundamentally simplify researchers' access to scientific information? Our research group, the Lower Saxony State and University Library Göttingen (SUB), and the Gesellschaft für wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH Göttingen (GWDG) aim to develop a virtual assistant based on large language models that will make library research easier. The collaborative project LibraryAI is supported by [...]
We are excited to announce that our group member, Dr. Terry Ruas, has successfully passed his habilitation exam by demonstrating excellence in research and teaching. This great achievement has rightfully earned him the venia legendi (permission to lecture) in computer science and the Privatdozent (PD) title. Having obtained the highest university degree achievable in Germany allows him to independently teach [...]
