Our project activities started in the framework of research collaborations between ETH Zurich and industrial partners in 2014. Since the end of 2017, our spin-off
company DataHow AG is leading all industrial and academic project collaborations. The following list presents a selection of disclosable projects, some of which can be accessed in more detail
through our research publications.
Our team has a long-standing experience in the modeling and design of various engineering systems. Since 2014, multivariate data analysis and machine learning have
been increasingly integrated into our activities. The following list presents a selection of central publications of our team members.
