Artificial intelligence
A pioneer in artificial intelligence
Yoshua Bengio is a pioneer of deep learning, a discipline that has revolutionized artificial intelligence. Mila, the institute he founded, is the world's most renowned university research centre in AI. Deeply aware of the ethical issues of research in his field, Dr. Bengio is an advocate for socially responsible development of artificial intelligence.
Staying the course for research
UdeM researchers are advancing research in artificial intelligence. They are helping put Montreal on the international map for AI.
Mila
Mila is known around the world for its breakthroughs in developing new algorithms for deep network learning and their application in a number of fields.
IVADO
Researchers from the Artificial Intelligence Research and Transfer Institute (IVADO) work mainly on exploiting big data for decision-making.
Consortium Santé Numérique
It brings together the various faculties, institutions and research centres affiliated with Université de Montréal that have an interest in digital health. (In French)
Responsible development
Initiated by Université de Montréal, the Montreal Declaration for the Responsible Development of AI is being co-created with input from the general population and aims to propose a progressive, inclusive and responsible path forward in the development of artificial intelligence.
