Connecteren

We connect AI experts, teams, disciplines, partners, programs, ...

Connect

AI that is aligned with the moral values of society, and includes principles as privacy, fairness, transparency, explainability, accountability, robustness and sustainability.&nbsp;

Responsible AI

Supporting humans in data exploration and decision making, involve the human in the loop, make explainable AI systems, make privacy preserving AI systems, let robots interact in safe and human-friendly way with humans. We expect AI systems to be trustworthy and easy to interact with.&nbsp;

Human-centered AI

Energy-efficient in different stages of the lifecycle: during training, when transferring and storing data, during use. There is a need for AI systems (hardware and software) that are energy-efficient and performant.

Sustainable AI

Automated, modular and reusable, easy to connect in a pipeline, using small data (data-efficient AI).

Productive AI

Dynamic and adaptive, able to cope with dynamic and uncertain environments and new situations, demonstrating a large situational awareness, scalable and high performant.&nbsp;

Resilient and Performant AI

Research Challenges

The Flanders AI Research Program has selected five focus research themes. The selection is based on the evolving expectations, needs and trends in Flanders and the rest of the world and the existing and internationally recognized strengths in research and excellent researchers. The applications reflect a common need:

<ol>
<li>Inspire potential users to implement the research results in their innovation tracks and translate them to their own business needs and business models.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Steer research activities toward the long-term needs of the application domains.</li>
</ol>

Goal of the demonstrators

Application Domains

We illustrate the results of the research in conceptual demonstrators.&nbsp;

The interaction between knowledge centers, companies, organizations, and the government is crucial for the development of AI innovations in Flanders.

Focus on partnerships

The Flanders AI Research Program focuses on demand-driven, leading-edge, generic AI research for numerous applications in the health and care sector and industry, for governments and their citizens.&nbsp;
