The four-year initiative will use AI and automation to support remotely accessible biomanufacturing experiments, with Liu co-leading the lab's data and AI systems.
Biomanufacturing underpins products ranging from vaccines to cancer therapies, but developing those products can require experiments that are time-consuming, costly and difficult to reproduce. A new University of Maryland-led project is bringing together artificial intelligence,...read more
The projects aim to predict hospital readmissions in high-risk heart failure patients and establish reliable methods for evaluating the safety and performance of AI-enabled medical imaging systems.
University of Maryland computer scientist Heng Huang is part of two new federally funded projects aimed at improving the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare: a four-year, $1.2 million award to develop a wearable device...read more
Watch someone pour almonds into a bowl, and the action is easy to follow: a container moves, tilts and releases its contents. Teaching a robot to do the same can require costly demonstrations specifying how...read more
