CB – Computational Biology
The department of Computational Biology does research in the fields of systems biology, computational neuroscience, neurocomputing, computational biomechanics, biological physics, theoretical biology, genome evolution and gene regulation.
The department has been involved in planning the EU Flagship project The Human Brain Project.
![Page 8: CSC – School of Computer Science and Communication](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110215/568165dd550346895dd8f6e3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
CVAP – Computer Vision & Active Perception
The department of Computer Vision and Active Perception performs research in computer vision and robotics, developing methods for analyzing images in the same manner humans perceive and understand their surroundings.The research can be used to develop vision used for man-machine interaction.
![Page 9: CSC – School of Computer Science and Communication](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110215/568165dd550346895dd8f6e3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
TCS – Theoretical Computer Science
The mission of the Theoretical Computer Science group is to carry the culture of theoretical computer science, and to develop and disseminate new, interesting and useful theory in computer science.TCS is concerned with the foundations of efficient and correct algorithms, and deals with the tractability of computational problems. Applications include computational biology, cryptography, natural language tools, and complex technical systems.Research has been conducted on for example electronic voting systems.

MID – Media Technology and Interaction Design
The MID group at CSC is an interdisciplinary research group consisting of the two previous research groups Media Technology and Graphical Production and Human Computer Interaction.The group has its roots in computer and behavioural science, graphic technique and media technology, and today has faculty that represents e.g. anthropology and psychology, computer science and media technology, interaction design, film and literature science, as well as media and communication science.

TMH – Speech, Music and Hearing• Music Acoustics Group
The research in the music acoustics group runs in three main streams;• instrument acoustics, especially strings;• the science of music performance; and• the acoustics of the human voice, in singing and for
medical applications.While running in parallel for periods, they often merge and interact. An experimental approach has long been characteristic of the research.
![Page 12: CSC – School of Computer Science and Communication](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110215/568165dd550346895dd8f6e3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
TMH – Speech, Music and Hearing• TMH Hearing Technology Group
The research of the hearing technology group aims to improve hearing impaired persons ability to perceive speech and other sounds and to understand what is being said. The challenge lies in trying to apply the fundamental knowledge of human hearing and perception to "intelligent" electronic aids for changing circumstances in everyday life.

PDC – Center for High Performance Computing
PDC operates leading-edge, high-performance computers on a national level. PDC offers easily accessible computational resources that primarily cater to the needs of Swedish academic research and education. PDC also takes part in major international projects to develop high-performance computing for the future and stay a leading national resource in parallel computing.

HPCViz – High Performance Computing and Visualization
The HPCViz department is concerned with the development of new concepts for improved usage of high performance computer systems, including modeling and simulation, as well as analysis and synthesis of (typically) visual data.
