Lero, the Science Foundation Ireland Research Centre for Software based at University of Limerick, has announced a research initiative with Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
This initiative aims to explore ideas relative to both University of Limerick and Qualcomm Technologies, focusing on enhancing performance by using highly advanced technology for artificial intelligence (AI).
The initiative, led by Lero researcher Professor Patrick Denny of UL, leverages technology from Qualcomm Technologies with the aim of improving the decision-making capabilities of AI in various applications.
Professor Denny, who holds 151 patents, said: “Through this work with Qualcomm Technologies, we aim to explore - or study - the ability of AI to interpret complex data more effectively, to improve operations across multiple environments and potentially increase efficiency.
“We want to better understand how vision systems can be combined with AI, particularly in challenging visual conditions.”
“The results of this research can support the development of more reliable vision systems for a range of applications, such as potential automotive, drone, and robotic technologies,” said Professor Denny who lectures in the Dept. of Computer Science and Information Systems at UL.
Paul Kelleher, VP of Engineering, QT Technologies Ireland Limited added: “Lero’s excellent international research reputation and Qualcomm Technologies’ commitment to research and development of next-generation technologies will drive and support cutting edge research.
“Through enhanced AI capabilities, we are aiming to significantly improve how systems perceive and react to their environment.”
