Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most fascinating scientific disciplines and one that will probably have the biggest impact on our society over the next 50 years. AI is increasingly entering our lives—we benefit from it particularly through our smart phones and experiences on the Internet. Self-driving cars and household robots could also be standard technologies very soon. One of the main goals of AI is to develop the foundations for intelligent systems that have the same intellectual capabilities as humans, so they can autonomously deal with unknown and unexpected situations. Indeed, AI offers a wide range of potential applications in almost any facet of our lives.
Our world-class AI research specialises in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Planning and Optimisation, Intelligent Agents, Data Mining and Matching, and Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. With more than 15 academics, 20 NICTA adjuncts and 50 PhD students, we approach AI from every angle—from work on its theoretical foundations right through to practical applications. Our academic leaders are internationally renowned experts in the fields mentioned above. We work closely with partners from academia, industry and government, and we offer many exciting projects for students at all levels. Work with us to actively shape the future!
