Projects building on ELLIS
This page offers an overview of nationally and EU-funded projects building on and extending the ELLIS network.
ELISE
ELISE - the European Network of AI Excellence Centres - is a network of artificial intelligence research hubs and associated Fellows which originated from and builds on ELLIS. Based on the highest level of research, it spreads its knowledge and methods in academia, industry and society. The network invites all ways of reasoning, considering all types of data applicable for almost all sectors of science and industry. It does this while being aware of data safety and security, and striving for explainable and trustworthy outcomes. ELISE contributes to ELLIS on many fronts, for example through mobility programs for researchers, PhD and postdoc students, research program workshops, company collaboration, and policy work. It’s part of the EU Horizon 2020 ICT-48 portfolio and coordinated by Aalto University which is part of the ELLIS Unit Helsinki.

ELSA
ELSA - the European Lighthouse on Secure and Safe AI - connects excellent researchers from 26 top research institutions and companies in Europe to pool their expertise in the field of AI and machine learning, and to spearhead efforts in foundational safe and secure AI methodology research. The network builds on and extends ELLIS, and is coordinated by the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security in Saarbrücken (Germany) which is part of the ELLIS Unit Saarbrücken. Similar to ELLIS, it rests on three pillars: selected research programs, local research units, and a PhD and postdoc program. ELSA is funded under the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation program and will establish a fluid two-way communication between academic research and real-life application scenarios through the creation of the ELSA Innovation Lab.

ELIZA
ELIZA - the Konrad Zuse School of Excellence in Learning and Intelligent Systems - is a graduate school in the field of AI funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and coordinated by the Technical University of Darmstadt. ELIZA’s research and training activities focus on four main areas: the basics of machine learning (ML) - including ML-driven fields like computer vision, Natural Language Processing (NLP) or robot learning -, machine learning systems, applications in autonomous systems, as well as trans-disciplinary applications for machine learning in other scientific fields, from life sciences to physics. ELIZA connects seven German ELLIS Units (Berlin, Darmstadt, Freiburg, Heidelberg, München, Saarbrücken, Tübingen) including their academic institutions and industry partners, and aims to become the leading German brand for research and research training in machine learning-driven AI.
