The CEE AI center is an alliance of high-performance organizations in the Dresden region and reflects the goals of the Artificial Intelligence Strategy of the Federal Government and the European Union. The participating partners would like to lay the foundation stone to bundle the forces for funding measures and large-scale projects in the Dresden region.
CEE AI
Center for Explainable and Efficient AI Technologies
Welcome
CEE AI at a glance
We work towards Explainable and Efficient AI technologies, hence the name CEE AI. Our research hub was initially formed by the Dresdeb University of Technology and the Fraunhofer Society in Dresden. You can learn more by downloading our PDF brochure.
TU Dresden
The Technische Universität Dresden is one of the top universities in Germany and Europe.
Fraunhofer Gesellschaft
The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft is the largest organisation for applied research in Europe.
The City of Dresden
Dresden does a greater degree of research than any other city in Germany. It comes top of the ranking among large German cities regarding both, the scientific workforce and the number of research institutes.
In recent years, we have seen that artificial intelligence (AI), when used responsibly, can help solve some of the world’s biggest challenges. The development of AI affects all our lives and cuts across different organizations. Because the challenges underlying AI span several scientific areas, we can only exploit its full potential by bringing together researchers and practitioners from different fields. Within the CEE AI consortium, two major research organizations — Dresden University of Technology (TUD) and the Fraunhofer Society — have joined forces to achieve this goal.
Mission
What is CEE AI doing?
CEE AI supports excellent scientific research spanning the entire spectrum, including hardware support, device communication, AI approaches, and the transfer of knowledge into practice. Particular focus will be given to efficient and explainable AI, as well as the development of strong AI partnerships in the region for new projects.

Vision
Where do we want to be in the year 2030?
Our goal is to make AI approaches more understandable and certifiable to improve acceptance in society and reduce the risks of using AI technology. By 2030, we intend to develop AI approaches that outperform current state-of-the-art techniques in many application areas, while offering the added benefit of being explainable.

TUD | The Collaborative University
inventive. transformative. engaged.
The Dresden University of Technology is one of the top universities in Germany and Europe. It is strong in research and is considered first-rate with respect to the range and quality of its study programs. It is also closely interconnected with culture, business, and society.
As a modern, comprehensive, multidisciplinary university with 17 faculties in five schools, it has a broad and diverse scientific spectrum that few other German universities can match. The TUD’s large campus community comprises 29,000 students and approximately 8,400 employees, including 600 professors. TU Dresden offers 121 degree programs, providing a foundation for interdisciplinary learning and research.

“We invent the future.”
The Fraunhofer Society is the largest organization for applied research in Europe. It conducts contract research for industry, the service sector, and public administration, and it offers information and services. The association is named after Joseph von Fraunhofer (1787–1826), an illustrious Bavarian researcher, inventor, and entrepreneur.
The Fraunhofer Society participates in international networks and organizations, such as the European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM), the European Association of Research and Technology Organizations (EARTO), the Global Research Alliance (GRA), and the World Association of Industrial and Technological Research Organizations (WAITRO).
