TheBrain - a new Web Search Engine

TheBrain is the second version of the fully integrated, decentralised WebEngine. It includes a completely new technology for learning, self-organisation and network management. Based on further research on text-representing centroids investigated by us, a new class of recommender systems could be built.

Those systems represent a new generation of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), which is brain-inspired and does not need offline learning periods.

At the King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok as well as the FernUniversität in Hagen the web search engine "TheBrain" was presented to the public on the 9th of December, 2020 by video conference.

The Opening speech held Prof. Dr. Ada Pellert (Rector of the FernUniversität) and Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Suchart Siengchin (President of the KMUTNB). After the greeting word of Dr. Georg Verweyen (German Academic Exchange Service Thailand) Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Dr. h.c. Herwig Unger gave an overview about the technological background.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Anirach Mingkhwan (previous Dean of FITM, KMUTNB) and Yanakorn Ruansuk (M.Sc. Student KMUTNB) introduced the Medical Recommender System.

PD Dr.-Ing. habil. Mario Kubek explained the functionality of the first version WebEngine in comparision to the second version TheBrain. Ms Supaporn Simcharoen (M.Sc., doctoral candidate) presented live the second version of the fully integrated, decentralised web search engine "TheBrain".
