Soft and Cognitive Computing

Coming from a multitude of disciplines and backgrounds, the group of Prof. Dr Edy Portmann is comprised of highly qualified and super motivated researchers and scientists. Within the team, the doctoral students write their thesis during a 3- to 4-year period whilst either working at Human-IST or in their professional environment. Thereby, the researchers and scientists carry out transdisciplinary research at our partners site but meet regularly to interact for the benefit of their projects. In doing so, the group mainly follows the incompatibility principle, which reveals the necessity for fuzziness when explaining and understanding our social reality.
