Stiftung Universität Hildesheim (UHi)

Stiftung Universität Hildesheim (UHi) is a German University with 5,300 students, focused on pedagogics, cultural sciences, languages, and computer science. The Information Systems and Machine Learning Lab (ISMLL) of the Institute of Computer Science, University of Hildesheim, Germany, headed by Prof. Lars Schmidt-Thieme is devoted to machine learning and data mining. Their main expertise is the development of machine learning models and respective learning and inference algorithms for prediction, classification, pattern recognition as well as recommender systems and their application in various areas such as user, item, or tag prediction. The lab is a world-leading research group on personalisation and recommender systems. It is involved in several research projects including EU-funded Knowledge Sharing and Reuse Across Media (X-Media) and Dynamic Personalization of Multimedia (MyMedia). This expertise fits perfectly to their assigned task to exploit the advantages of machine learning, especially recommender system technology for intelligent tutoring systems.
