“The goal of the SCAI conference is to share the latest research results, foster collaboration and promote the spread of cutting-edge research and development in the field of AI, says Einav Peretz Andersson, programme manager for the AI Engineering master's programme at JTH and general chair of the conference.

Furthermore, the SCAI conference encourages knowledge exchange among researchers, practitioners and industry experts in AI. Networking opportunities and partnerships between academia and industry to drive innovation and advancement in AI technology will also be discussed. The conference attracts participants from Scandinavia and around the world.

Real world challenges

The conference presents research projects on various AI technologies, including machine learning algorithms, natural language processing, computer vision, and robotics. In the business sector, SCAI provides a forum for industry professionals to showcase AI applications, share best practices and explore how AI technologies can be leveraged to address real-world challenges and opportunities.

“This may include presentations on AI-driven innovations in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, marketing and beyond," says Einav Peretz Andersson.
