Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning have become more and more important. We are on the threshold to novel applications in industry and services, just as the recent success of AI projects has shown (Google’s AlphaGo, IBM’s Watson, autonomous cars). Four research groups at Freie Universität Berlin have now started the “Dahlem Center for Machine Learning and Robotics” in order to explore machine learning algorithms and applications of intelligent systems. The following research groups are involved:

• Intelligent Systems and Robotics
• Autonomous Cars
• Artificial and Collective Intelligence
• Logic and automatic proofs
