The Artificial Intelligence National Laboratory (MILAB) aims to strengthen Hungary's position in AI.
MILAB is founded in 2020 as the coordinated national artificial intelligence umbrella for the collaboration of all major research centers, universities and large-scale national programs. MILAB funnels business needs and international research relations by leveraging on the existing relationship of the partner institutions. It strengthens social innovation to embrace technological innovation.
Research in MILAB is initiated by integrating flagship projects in medical image processing, transportation, manufacturing, logistics, and by relying on internationally renowned Hungarian mathematicians and physicists among others in the areas of graph theory and network science.
Faculty of Informatics and its Department of Artificial Intelligence is involved in the R+D+I of human-machine interaction including Cyber-Physical Systems, remote monitoring, diagnosis, therapy, and rehabilitation in autism, depression, PTSD, and motion correction. Close collaborations with the Department of Software Technology and Methodology, e.g., in the field of edge computing and also in natural language processing are organized for high quality developments.
