How to train your robot: U of T research provides new approaches

June 26, 2018

If your friend is sad, you can say something to help cheer them up. If you ask your co-worker to make coffee, they know the steps to complete this task.

But how do artificially intelligent robots, or AIs, learn to behave in the same way humans do?

Autonomous vehicles: U of T researchers make advances with new algorithm

June 25, 2018

A self-driving vehicle has to detect objects, track them over time, and predict where they will be in the future in order to plan a safe manoeuvre. These tasks are typically trained independently from one another, which could result in disasters should any one task fail.

U of T Arts & Science alumni amongst Canada's 50 most inspiring women in STEM

May 10, 2018

Alumna Inmar Givoni, an autonomy engineering manager for Uber’s Advanced Technologies Group in Toronto, says computer science is a field that grew on her over time.

AI researcher outlines vision for 'self-driving' labs at U of T-Tsinghua University conference

May 07, 2018

The ability of artificial intelligence – and deep learning algorithms in particular – to recognize images has created much excitement in recent years, sparking a race to develop everything from self-driving cars to robotic assistants.

How do we regulate artificial intelligence? Munk School students seek answers to big questions

April 10, 2018

For many, artificial intelligence (AI) is synonymous with a distant future, where self-driving cars are the norm and humans work side-by-side with robots. In reality, we don’t have to look that far ahead to see artificial intelligence at work.

U of T computer science professor named NSERC Industrial Research Chair in Machine Learning

January 30, 2018

University of Toronto professor of computer science Richard Zemel has been named NSERC Industrial Research Chair (IRC) in Machine Learning, effective August 1, 2018 for a renewable five-year term.

Cracking the code: This group of U of T computer science researchers are decoding ciphers with AI

October 27, 2017

To break the Enigma code during the Second World War, British computer scientist Alan Turing developed a mathematical model to unlock the cipher faster than any human.

'The conscience of AI': Why this U of T expert created a forum for AI researchers and entrepreneurs to discuss ethics

October 24, 2017

Markus Dubber’s first brush with artificial intelligence, or AI, occurred in an unlikely place: a performance of his daughter’s choir.

U of T applied computing student is part of a new wave of data scientists

October 03, 2017

It was Vincent Tembo’s keen interest in artificial intelligence, machine learning and the University of Toronto’s ground-breaking work in deep learning that led him to come here.

The AI revolution spreads its wings in Toronto, and at U of T

September 01, 2017

Geoffrey Hinton may feel a bit sheepish about his “godfather” of deep learning moniker, but there’s little doubt the University Professor Emeritus at the University of Toronto

Feeling distressed?

We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
