At the IEEE IV 2025 in Romania, our research group was represented with 13 accepted papers. In addition, Ahmed Abouelazm won the Best Paper Award with his contribution "TPK: Trustworthy Trajectory Prediction Integrating Prior Knowledge For Interpretability and Kinematic Feasibility".

On March 1, 2024, the KIT Center for Mobility Systems and the Energy Lab at Campus North received an official visit from Dr. Volker Wissing, Federal Minister for Digital Affairs and Transport, and Members of the Bundestag Michael Theurer and Parsa Marvi.

A robot that helps children cross the street safely? What sounds like science fiction has become reality in Bratislava – with significant involvement from KIT. 

On September 22, 2024, the workshop takes place in conjunction with the 16th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces. This workshop deals with the rise of micromobility services and Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) as a potential solution to problems like regulations, standardization and road safety.

The ISE group is one of the organizers of the International Semantic Web Research Summer School (ISWS) 2024.

We welcome Christian Mack as a new member of the SECUSO team! Christian recently completed his Master's degree in Computer Science at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). In his master's thesis, he investigated how US voter confidence differs between the voting machines used in the 2024 presidential election. Since November 1, 2025, he has been part of the SECUSO team, working on e-voting and online disinformation campaigns.

Our student Mario Gemov has made it to the final of the CAST IT Security Award 2025 for outstanding theses in the field of IT security.

[Nov 24-26, 2025] - We are pleased to share that our postdoctoral researcher, Dr. Mustafa Demetgül, delivered a talk titled “Multi-Scale Sensor Fusion for Tire-Road Noise Prediction” at the Aachen Acoustics Colloquium (AAC 2025), held between 24–26 November. The Aachen Acoustics Colloquium is one of the leading international events in the field of acoustics, bringing together experts from both industry and academia.

In addition, Dr. Demetgül attended the 5th Milestone Meeting of our ongoing Tyre Road Noise project on 27 November.

Overall, both events were highly productive for our group and contributed positively to our ongoing research activities in tire-road noise prediction, sensor fusion, and advanced acoustic modeling.
