Institute of Information Management – Projects

The IIM hosts all research projects of members of the faculty with a duration of at least six months and a minimum volume of 20,000 euros. The funding might come from industry, organizations, project sponsors (e.g., DFG, BMBF, EU) or internal university research funding. 

  • DaLI - Data Literacy Initiative

    The Data Literacy Initiative (DaLI) at TH Köln aims to systematically incorporate data literacy in teaching and research by implementing a modular training program across all disciplines. More

  • JoIE II - Journalistic Information Extraction

    Data journalism is a type of journalism that favours data-driven forms of research and presentation. However, a fundamental problem of data journalism, but also of traditional journalism, is that much data of journalistic interest is only available in unstructured form. More

  • STELLA II - Infrastructures for Living Labs

    The STELLA project provides an innovative technology and methodology infrastructure that allows information providers to evaluate their information systems with the actual users of their web platforms. By incorporating the Living Lab principle, the systems can be evaluated iteratively and continuously, thus taking a big step towards a "Continues Evaluation". More

  • RESIRE - Reproducibility and simulation of interactive retrieval experiments

    The main idea of the RESIRE project is to describe actual users of IR systems by quantitative modeling of their behavior and their content-related decisions during retrieval sessions. These model parameters can then form the basis for comparing two interactive IR experiments with regard to reproducibility, and can also be used for simulating interactive IR. More

  • LT-LiDER: Language and Translation: Literacy in Digital Environments and Resources

    LT-LiDER aims to map the landscape of technological capabilities required to work as a language and/or translation expert. More

  • WO–TH K: Researching the effectiveness of OA in the Global South

    The project "Researching the effectiveness of Open Access in the Global South - exemplary implementation of insights into practice at TH Köln (WO-TH K)" is set to run for three years. The project aims to achieve two central objectives: More

  • DataLitMT – Teaching Data Literacy in the Context of Machine Translation Literacy

    The DataLitMT project based at the Institute of Translation and Multilingual Communication (ITMK) at TH Köln, Germany, provides didactic resources for teaching data literacy in its machine-translation specific form of professional MT literacy to students of translation studies/specialised communication programmes at BA and MA levels.

  • FDM@Studium.nrw

    The cooperation project FDM@Studium.nrw aims to create reusable materials for research data management (FDM) in teaching. More

  • Improving access to health care for intersex and transgender people – intrahealth.de

    The project investigates discrimination of intersex and transgender people in health care and develops the self-learning environment www.intrahealth.de for health professionals with the aim to reduce barriers in access to health care. More

  • PIXLS - Preprint Information Extraction for Life Sciences

    Preprints are a relatively new pathway of making scientific results available to the wider research community even before peer review. Meanwhile, thereis are a large number of different preprint servers used by the research community, which differ both technically and in terms of content. More
