This area of research is focused on developing new machine learning (ML) algorithms for advancing the field of Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Computer Vision, Big Data Analytics, and Robotics. The research also uses the advances to solve real world problems. Example applications include: Genomic analysis, health and disease relations, energy, water, smart cities, cybersecurity, networking, refugees, e-government, crowdsourcing, addressing bias in AI, conversational AI, Arabic-specific NLP and language models, and Arabic specific ML resources.
