European Lighthouse to Manifest Trustworthy and Green AI
ENFIELD is set to establish a distinctive European Center of Excellence focused on advancing fundamental research in Adaptive, Green, Human-Centric, and Trustworthy AI. The initiative seeks to elevate research within key sectors like healthcare, energy, manufacturing, and space by attracting top talents, technologies, and resources from leading research and industry entities in Europe. By conducting high-level research aligned with industry challenges, ENFIELD aims to strengthen the EU's competitive position in AI, generating significant socio-economic impact for European citizens and businesses.
ENFIELD intends to deliver impactful outcomes, including over 75 unique AI solutions (algorithms, methods, simulations, services, datasets, and prototypes), 180 scientifically influential publications, and 200 peer-reviewed presentations. Additionally, four strategic documents, namely the Common Research Roadmap and Vision, the dynamic Safety and Security Risk Assessment Framework, the White Paper, and the Gender and Ethics Framework, will be produced.
