Researchers at the University of Innsbruck, together with partners from Sydney and Waterloo, have presented a new diagnostic method for quantum computers.

The human genome is a long sequence of DNA scattered with innumerable genetic variants that distinguish us. Extracting information from large biobank datasets about complex traits, influenced by thousands or millions of variants, remains a challenge. Using human height as a model, researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) have developed an enhanced algorithm, now published in Cell Genomics , with potential applications in personalized medicine - and even at crime scenes.

Fairness in AI: Study Shows Central Role of Human Decision-Making In addition to helping in a practical way, recommendations based on AI should above all be fair.

Using an AI-supported model developed in-house, an interdisciplinary team at TU Graz has sought new methods to enhance the efficiency of aircraft engines.

Félix Iglesias Vázquez on open code practices and the development of versatile algorithms for real-world data challenges.

The EU and the State of Salzburg are supporting five new research and transfer centres in Salzburg, two of which are based at Salzburg University of Applied Sciences.

*** Portuguese version below *** In a small computer lab in Maputo, rows of students from Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) stare at colourful satellite maps showing how drought slowly spreads across their country.

By combining physics-based methods with machine learning, a team at the Institute of Thermodynamics and Sustainable Propulsion Systems at TU Graz is developing models that deliver better results despite less training data.

Winner of the CADE ATP System Competition and recipient of the Distinguished Paper Award For the first time in the history of the CADE ATP System Competition (CASC), a single automated theorem prover has achieved a clean sweep: VAMPIRE won all'eight competition divisions at CASC-30.

A previously undiscovered attack allows fraudulent apps to take control of mobile phones - but the vulnerability can be closed.

Researchers from TU Graz, Pro2Future and the University of St. Gallen have developed methods that enable IoT devices to run AI models with minimal memory - for example, to correct positioning errors.

100 years of a theory that changed physics echoed in wide quantum diversity at ISTA 2025 marks the 100 jubilee of quantum mechanics. Despite its young age, the fast-growing and highly interdisciplinary Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) is advancing broadly diverse areas of quantum research.

How precise can a measurement result be when all'you have is a blurred image of an object? At TU Wien, the limits of what is possible were explored using artificial intelligence.

Many microorganisms can move in a goal oriented way in liquids. How do they do this without a complex nervous system? Research conducted at TU Wien provides explanations.

Chitchanok Chuengsatiansup moved from the University of Melbourne to the University of Klagenfurt at the end of 2024 to continue working on optimized cryptographic codes that ensure several goals: Wh

Researchers at the Institute of Visual Computing have made it possible to remove objects from live recordings of three-dimensional environments without time delay while the camera remains in motion.

ISTA PhD candidate spearheads efforts in tailoring algorithms to quantum hardware Quantum computing remains a research endeavor, explained the Physics Nobel Laureate Frank Wilczek earlier this year, contextualizing the widespread industry aspirations to enter markets.

Together with Geosphere Austria, MedUni Vienna's Pollen Service Vienna is adding allergenic plants to its popular "Nature Calendar" app.

Falsified or disrupted signals from navigation satellites can have devastating effects on critical infrastructure.

With the "Graz corpus of read and spontaneous speech", researchers at TU Graz have developed new methods for speech recognition of Austrian German using speech data from 38 people.
