History
Establishment of CAMIRC
The Creative Advanced Machine Intelligence Research Group (CAMIRC) was established in 2023 as a result of merging two research units named Artificial Intelligence Research Unit (AiRU) that was established in 2012 and Knowledge Technology Research Unit (KTRU) that was established in 2017.
AiRU consists of three research groups named Robotics and Intelligent Systems, Nano Engineering and Material and Intelligent Signal Processing. While KTRU consists of five research groups named Advanced Machine Intelligence, Data Technologies & Applications, Visual Analytics, Language Engineering and Applications Development and Cybersecurity.
Artificial Intelligence Research Unit - 2012
AiRU was founded in 2012 by a team of nine experts with the vision of advancing research and innovation. It is structured into five specialized research groups under two key programs: the ICT program and the Engineering program. The ICT program consists of three groups—Knowledge Discovery and Machine Learning, which develops data-driven systems and predictive tools; Bio-Mimetics, which creates technologies inspired by nature; and Vision & Language, which integrates visual and textual data for smarter AI solutions. The Engineering program comprises two groups—Robotics & Intelligent Systems (myRIS), focusing on autonomous robots and intelligent systems, and Nano Engineering & Materials (NEMs), which drives innovation in nanotechnology and materials science. Together, these groups collaborate to tackle complex challenges and contribute to groundbreaking advancements across diverse fields.
Knowledge Technology Research Unit - 2017
The Knowledge Technology Research Unit (KTRU) was first formed in 2014, with the aim of fostering innovation and advancing technological research. It became formally established in 2017, bringing together a team of 14 skilled professionals who specialize in various groundbreaking fields. KTRU’s work spans across diverse domains, including Machine Learning, where intelligent algorithms are developed to analyze data and predict outcomes, and Big Data & Visual Analytics, focusing on processing and visualizing large datasets for actionable insights. The unit also explores Neuro-informatics, merging neuroscience and informatics to model brain function, as well as Psychological Computing, which emphasizes analyzing emotional and psychological factors to improve human-computer interaction. Additionally, KTRU delves into the transformative realms of Virtual and Augmented Reality to create immersive experiences, Cloud Computing for scalable data solutions, Cyber Security to protect digital systems, and Intelligent Robotics to design advanced robots capable of automation and adaptation. This multidisciplinary approach positions KTRU as a leader in driving innovation and shaping the future of technology.
Research Groups in KTRU
The Knowledge Technology Research Unit (KTRU) strives to address emerging technological needs by bringing together faculty and students interested in conducting advanced research. Established formally in 2017, KTRU focuses on five key research groups: Advanced Machine Intelligence (AMI), which promotes sustainable innovation in intelligent solutions through Neuro-informatics, Psychological Computing, and Knowledge Discovery and Machine Learning; Data Technologies & Applications (DATA), conducting impactful research in Big Data Analytics, Data Science, and Software Technologies; Language Engineering and Application Development (LEAD), which produces robust and scalable digital solutions through Machine Translation, Corpus Analysis, Sentiment Analysis, Document Summarization, and Human-Language-centered applications; Cybersecurity (CS), advancing superior research in Internet Security, Data Protection, and Socio-technical Security; and Visual Analytics (VA), enhancing skills in Virtual Citizenship, Visual Analytics, and Augmented and Virtual Reality across disciplines. Together, these groups contribute to KTRU's vision of driving innovation and fostering impactful research.
