Collaboration between CHUV, SDSC and UNIL

Not all datasets are images and we need architectures that adapt to other types of data, encoding both domain specific knowledge and data specific characteristics. For instance, at the SDSC, we deal with spherical data, i.e. curved images on a sphere, but without clear borders and arbitrary orientation.

Another office for the Swiss Data Science Center will be established at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI. To this end, the ETH Board has approved an increase of five million Swiss francs in the budget of the strategic focus area Data Science. The main aim of this expansion is to help improve the evaluation and processing of the growing amounts of data from large and complex research infrastructures, sensor networks, and databases at PSI and the other three federal research institutes, Empa, WSL, and Eawag. The resources and expertise will be available to all institutes in the ETH Domain.
