12 September 2018, Nanjing University has been cooperating with tech giant Intel and recently held the opening ceremony of AI IPCC center (Intel Parallel Computing Centers), which is the first AI-orientated IPCC for Intel.
Focusing on the latest technical AI research including a new generation of deep learning models directed by professor Zhou Zhihua, Dean of the School of Artificial Intelligence of Nanjing University.
Zhou has said that the cooperation between Intel and Nanjing University will further promote the AI machine learning and algorithms and will further help the university push its research further.
Working together to create the application Deep Forest, Song Jiqiang, Dean of Intel (China) Research Institute said that the cooperation and deep learning requires a lot of marked data.
It [Deep Forrest] can be used on a small amount of data and it is possible that it be changed into comprehensible knowledge. Thus, its application field has also been extended, which can go directly to the perception and decision-making level, laying a foundation for the spiral escalation of algorithm and hardware.
