Channelling AI’s Potential to Benefit Humanity

Center

Institutes

By conducting and deploying cutting-edge research for impactful applications spanning across several strategic areas, CPII hopes to confront some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Meanwhile, it will create strong differentiation and value propositions for industries in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area, to innovatively transform many existing processes and services, into an entirely new space.

Channelling AI’s Potential to Benefit Humanity

The Holy Grail of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research is to enable the computer to see, listen, and understand the world in a similar way as humans. While the goal of a self-aware and cognitive computer has yet to be attained, AI has unquestionably demonstrated tremendous progress and capabilities in recent years. Today, AI-enabled applications are pervasive. For example, decision-support systems incorporating AI can effectively assist clinicians in medical diagnoses. In an urban context, a visual intelligence platform can make decisions based on traffic flow analytics and pedestrian behaviour to inform real-time interventions in transportation.

To realise the promise of AI and achieve transformative benefits for our society, The Chinese University of Hong Kong has established the Centre for Perceptual and Interactive Intelligence (CPII). Targeting the sectors of healthcare, urban services and reindustrialization, CPII is running research programmes covering Visual Intelligence as well as Speech & Language Intelligence. CPII will also develop applications for Vision- and Language- based Healthcare AI, Vision-based Urban Services, and AI-Enabled Design and Automation.

CPII will leverage Hong Kong’s international research networks for AI talent development and exchange, nurture AI start-ups and bring academic outcomes to meet industrial demands. With strong capabilities in computer vision, multilingual speech and language technologies, natural language processing, and AI-enabled design automation, CPII will efficiently connect research with industry to accelerate societal adoption.
