=== Road anomaly and driver behavior detection ===
New! Road situations such as road traffic, roadworks and damages are critical for both human and autonomous driving. For driving (or assisted) with humans, its important to detect how the driver behaves facing dynamic road situations. This project attempts to detect anomalous road situations and driver behaviors with multi-source data mining, fusion and machine learning techniques. We expect you have some data analytics and machine learning background, as well as programming skills like Python.

=== Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA) technologies on smart cities===
* '''New!'''The LoRaWAN specification is a Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA) networking protocol, which is attracting a lot of attention due to their ability to offer affordable connectivity to the low-power devices distributed over very large geographical areas. In this project, we plan to exploit the LoRaWAN technologies to improve the performance of applications in smart cities.

Revision as of 23:49, 25 January 2022

An introduction to the Computer Networks group

See a poster for a general overview, an anchor to our research activities, a list of social computing related or networking-related publications, and the annual report(s) for our recent activities.

Open Theses and Student Project Topics

The Computer Networks Group is always looking for motivated students to work on various topics. If you are interested in any of the projects below, or if you have other ideas and are willing to work with us, please don't hesitate to contact us.

  • (B) Bachelor thesis
  • (M) Master thesis
  • (P) Student project

New video/image encoding for DNN applications

  • New! Video/image encoding is important for image/video storage/delivery on Internet. It reduces file size by eliminating spatial-temporal redundancy. Along with the development of Deep Neural Network in the computer vision(CV) community, video/image encoding for DNN applications is becoming more and more crucial. This project attempts to compare the difference between video/image encoding for QoE and DNN applications; and explore the design space in the video/image encoding for DNN applications. We expect you have Digital Image Process and Computer Vision background, as well as programming skills like Python and C/C++.

Please contact Weijun Wang [weijun.wang@informatik.uni-goettingen.de] (B/M/P)

Super resolution technique for efficient video delivery

  • New! Super-resolution (SR) is one of the fundamental tasks in Computer vision. Video delivery on Internet or in WAN is important for various applications, eg., video analytics and video viewing. This project attempts to explore the potential of SR for video delivery. We expect you have Data Science and Computer Vision background, as well as programming skills like Python.

Please contact Weijun Wang [weijun.wang@informatik.uni-goettingen.de] (B/M/P)


Assessing city livability with big data

  • New! City livability is related to a number of factors, such as quality of life, job satisfaction, environment (green space, CO2/PM2.5, schooling/health support etc), policy, commuting time, entertainment. We utilize different data sources to understand their relation to the city livability, and analyze the coherent features which offer an evaluation framework for a city's attractiveness and livability for different types of citizens. We expect you have some statistics and machine learning background, as well as programming skills like Python.

Please contact Prof. Xiaoming Fu (B/M/P).

Socioeconomic analysis on commuters

  • New! Understanding the commuter behaviour and the factors that lead to commuting are more important today than ever before. With steadily increasing commuter numbers, the commuter traffic can be a major bottleneck for many cities. The increasing awareness of a good work-life balance leads to more people wanting shorter commuting distances. The commuter behaviour consequently plays an increasingly important role in city and transport planning and policy making. This topic aims to infer knowledge from commuter data, analyzing the influence of GDP, housing prices, family situation, income and job market on the decision to commute. We expect you have some statistics and machine learning background, as well as programming skills like Python.

Please contact Prof. Xiaoming Fu (B/M/P)


Socioeconomic Status and Internet Language Usage

  • New! Numerous people write social media posts and exchange messages with colleagues, friends, acquaintances or even strangers on different platforms. We would like to understand how the underlying social class membership (socioeconomic status) affects Internet users' language use, by investigating the sociolinguistic features in users' posts/messages across a multitude of datasets and their relationship to their socioeconomic status. We expect you have some statistics and textual analysis/natural language processing background, as well as programming skills like Python.

Please contact Prof. Xiaoming Fu (B/M/P)


Multimedia Resource Allocation for QoE Improvement by Deep Learning

  • New! Deep learning has been widely used in various real-time applications and systems. Dynamic resource allocation for multimedia (e.g. Video) to improve QoE is an interesting topic. We need three students for this topic. We expect you have a background in deep learning and computer network, as well as programming skills like Python and Go.

(1) one to realize and improve the system for video transmission and network configuration according to resource allocation policy;

  • You will use QUIC [1] protocol (Go language) to implement network allocation and place the server part on AWS/other clouds.

(2) one to implement the deep learning algorithm to design the controller for dynamic resource allocations.

(3) one student for the QoE model using deep learning.
