📢 We are excited to announce that Hussam Amrouch has joined relAI as a Fellow!.
About Professor Hussam Amrouch
Hussam Amrouch holds several positions at TUM, including Chair of AI Processor Design at CIT, and Head of research on Brain-inspired Computing at MIRMI. He is also the Head of the Semiconductor Test and Reliability research group at the University of Stuttgart, Germany, the Founding Director of the Munich Advanced-Technology Center for High-Tech AI Chips (MACHT-AI), and Academic Director of TUM Venture Labs for Semiconductor and Quantum.
His key research interests are focused on ultra-efficient AI chips, advanced technologies, novel computing architectures for AI acceleration, machine learning for EDA, advanced technologies, cryogenic CMOS, emerging beyond- CMOS technologies, privacy and security. His research aligns strongly and naturally with the core mission of relAI, particularly its central themes of security, privacy, and reliability, as well as its application-driven focus on trustworthy AI systems. While relAI emphasizes algorithmic and theoretical foundations, Prof. Amrouch contributes a complementary and essential hardware-level perspective, addressing reliability not only at the software or model level, but at the physical, architectural, and system layers of AI.
Contribution to relAI
Prof. Hussam Amrouch is committed to making sustained contributions to the relAI program through research supervision, teaching, training, and community-building. His involvement will strengthen relAI’s interdisciplinary profile by integrating hardware-aware, security-focused, and energy-efficient AI perspectives into both doctoral education and research.
