Description du projet
Faciliter l’engagement des utilisateurs dans la plateforme AI4EU
La plateforme à la demande AI4EU a pour objectif de rassembler les parties prenantes et les ressources de l’IA, de surmonter les problèmes de fragmentation et d’encourager l’accélération des innovations basées sur l’IA. L’un des objectifs les plus fondamentaux de la plateforme est d’améliorer la fonctionnalité pour permettre l’engagement facile de ses parties prenantes, à savoir les PME. Le projet StairwAI, financé par l’UE, cible les utilisateurs low-tech pour faciliter leur engagement dans la plateforme AI4EU. À cette fin, il concevra et mettra en œuvre une série de services basés sur IA, tels que le traitement du langage naturel, la résolution de contraintes, l’optimisation et l’apprentissage automatique pour le jumelage horizontal et vertical, ainsi que des mécanismes de réputation et d’équité pour améliorer les résultats de correspondance.
Objectif
The most fundamental need of the AI4EU on-demand Platform at this stage in its development is the introduction of improved functionality to allow for the easy engagements of it core targets stakeholders, namely SMEs. While additional resources and strong domain-specific solutions are also needed, it will be a wasted enterprise without a simple mechanism to match users to these assets. What is needed is a Stairway to AI, a linking bridge between users in a low-tech level to the higher-level AI resources that have the potential to transform both their business.
The StairwAI project targets low-tech users with the goal of facilitating their engagement on the AI on-demand Platform. This will be achieved through a new service layer enriching the functionalities of the on-demand platform and containing: (1) a multi-lingual interaction layer enabling conversations with the Platform in the user’s own language, (2) a horizontal matchmaking service for the automatic discovery of AI assets (tools, data sets, AI experts, consultants, papers, courses etc.) meeting the user business needs and, (3) a vertical matchmaking service that will dimension and provision hardware resources through a proper hardware provider (HPC, Cloud and Edge infrastructures).
These services are designed and implemented by using techniques in an AI for AI fashion. The AI techniques deployed in the development of the services are natural language processing for the multi-lingual interaction, constraint solving, optimization and machine learning for horizontal and vertical matchmaking, knowledge representation for organizing the platform AI assets, reputation and fairness mechanisms to improve the matching results.
StairwAI will have a tremendous impact on the sustainability, collaboration opportunities, accessibility and fairness of the AI on-demand Platform, enabling the definition of proper business models for the uptake of AI bringing new value for EU industry.
