Challenge Turbulent flows — the chaotic, swirling motions you see in storm clouds, the wake behind an airplane wing, or the frothy swirls in your morning cup of coffee — span a vast range of interacting scales. Resolving every vortex from meter-wide eddies down to tiny millimeter-scale whirls requires grids with billions of points and supercomputers running for days or weeks. Coarse, low-resolution simulations run quickly but miss critical small-scale physics. The Hack the Turbulence hackathon challenges you to bridge this gap. Develop deep-learning models that take coarse turbulent flow data and reconstruct high-resolution fields, while respecting the underlying physics.
 
We invite students and researchers from mathematics, data science, engineering, and physics to join us for four days of hands-on innovation. Participants will enhance their skills in data analysis and scientific machine learning. They will also connect with researchers from different disciplines and get hands-on experience with KIT's supercomputer cluster.
 
This event is organized by machine learning enthusiasts from KCDS, with support from KIT and SCC.

Highdimensional data are implicitly obtained in classification and regression tasks by certain supervised learning algorithms like e.g. Support Vector Machine through Mercer's Theorem. An example where data is explicitly presented in high dimension is given by hyperspectral data. Due to the "curse of dimensionality", dimension-reduction methods become important. Since data are often non-linear, manifold learning techniques are of interest.
The 3-day workshop "Topological Data Analysis and Manifold Learning using Ultrametrics" aims to introduce methods inspired by topology and manifolds for the analysis of high-dimensional data, as well as to practically incorporate some novel ideas from ultrametric analysis in order to obtain faster algorithms. The idea is to test these methods on datasets of interest by the participants and to aim at collaboratively producing novel experimental results, at least in the aftermath of this workshop.
This workshop is brought to you in cooperation of graduate schools KCDS and GRACE. Everyone interested is welcome to join! - For graduate school members, successful participation will be credited with 2 CP.

2-day on-site workshop on November 4+5, 2025 on KIT Campus South
 
As a scientist, presenting your findings is essential, whether in a group seminar, at a conference, or during your Ph.D. defense. However, effective science presentation is more than just sharing data.

The topics covered by this workshop are:
Planning and structure Memorable start and ending Speech, voice, and body language Create meaningful graphics Slide composition Difficult situations  
The training is a workshop, meaning that the participants apply the learned material to their presentations right there. Therefore, everybody should bring presentations (old or upcoming ones) to work with.

Speaking the same language is a great advantage for tailoring presentations effectively. Another important point: Most scientists talk about their topic with shining eyes. Often, that excitement is gone the moment they stand in front of a crowd. To tap into this enthusiasm during your talk is particularly important. For that enthusiasm to reappear, you need to feel safe with what you are doing in your presentation.
