Welcome to the Data Science Group

The Data Science Group, which is headed by Prof. Dr. Tanya Braun, is part of the Computer Science Department at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Münster. The group's research and teaching activities are focusing on different aspects of data processing and data science all the way to artificial intelligence under the notion of agent theory.

This summer, we are attending workshops and conferences for the following presentations:

• Sagad Hamid: A Probabilistic Circuit Framework for Interpretable Graph PU Learning, UAI-26 42nd Conference on Uncertainty in AI, 17-21 August, 2026, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
• Jan Speller, Tanya Braun: Tutorial at IJCAI-ECAI 2026 (see news announcement below)
• Nazlı Nur Karabulut: Indistinguishable Agents in Decentralised POMDPs, LAMAS&SR-26 Workshop on Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems and Strategic Reasoning 2026 at the 9th Federated Logic Conference (FLoC 2026), 19 July, 2026, Lisbon, Portugal
• Tanya Braun: Variable Elimination for Forgetting in Probabilistic Graphical Models - A Work in Progress, Workshop on Modularity and Splitting Techniques for Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (MoST 2026) at the 9th Federated Logic Conference (FLoC 2026), 18 July, 2026, Lisbon, Portugal

Jan Speller und Tanya Braun will give a tutorial at IJCAI-ECAI 2026, one of the leading AI conferences world-wide, together with Malte Luttermann and Marcel Gehrke, University of Hamburg, on the 15 August, 2026, in Bremen.
