Assistant Professor Joseph Jay Williams investigates how people learn by explaining 'why?', as well as applying statistics and machine learning to modeling how people think.

Toronto’s tech boom – driven in part by artificial intelligence research at the University of Toronto – has prompted talk of a "Silicon Valley North." But those actually ensconced in the Bay Area instead paint a picture of a research-driven innovation hub that’s collaborative, inclusive and uniquely Canadian.

Canada has all the ingredients needed to take advantage of the coming artificial intelligence revolution – a shift that promises to supercharge the growth of a wide range of industries from transportation to health care, according to Jensen Huang, the CEO of graphics chip giant Nvidia.

A multidisciplinary team of students from the University of Toronto and a student from the University of Waterloo have been awarded $10,000 from Royal Bank of Canada's (RBC) Amplify program for designing the "most disruptive" technology to monitor email money transfers.

Computer science undergraduates had a unique set of problems to solve during the University of Toronto’s department of computer science undergraduate summer research project program.

The ride-sharing giant said today it will invest more than $200 million in Toronto over the next five years to expand an existing research lab focused on self-driving cars – led by University of Toronto Associate Professor Raquel Urtasun.

The two academic luminaries recently published companion “Viewpoint” pieces in the prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that seek to demystify deep learning, a branch of AI.

Navdeep Bains, minister of innovation, science and economic development, announced the roundtables will be led by six digital innovation leaders, including U of T computer science Professor Arvind Gupta.

Researchers at the University of Toronto and the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMA) have applied deep learning algorithms to software for the animation and gaming industry.

Synthesis explains PhD student, Alberto Camacho, has the end goal of automatically constructing software that satisfies user intent.

Computer Science alumni and interns have helped propel Toronto's Layer 6 AI, part of TD Bank Group, to the top of the leader board in a global artificial intelligence contest for the second year in a row.

A University of Toronto student and his teammate from the University of Ontario Institute of Technology have won a global award at the "Olympics of technology," bringing home the 2018 Imagine Cup trophy for the smartARM, a prosthetic robotic hand.

Toronto’s burgeoning innovation district – home to hundreds of researchers, entrepreneurs and innovation-minded partners – is poised to undergo a dramatic expansion.

In the early 19th century, Massachusetts Governor Elbridge Gerry reconfigured the state districts to guarantee the U.S. Senate election of Democratic-Republican candidates in opposition to the Federalists. It was said the new boundary of Essex County looked like a salamander, but an opponent quipped it looked more like a gerrymander.

In business and research, leaders help motivate others to navigate a clear path forward. To help prepare future computer scientists for these roles, University of Toronto’s department of computer science is inviting undergraduates entering the second-year of the major or specialist program .

U of T computer science researchers present new approaches towards socially intelligent AIs at CVPR.

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.

James Cameron's 3D film Avatar sought to revolutionize the movie-going experience when it was first released in 2009, creating an immersive world for viewers. But what if you also wanted to feel the heat and the wind, while flying on a banshee, direct from your cinema seat?

Graphics chip giant Nvidia Corp. is launching a new artificial intelligence research lab in Toronto to be headed by the University of Toronto’s Sanja Fidler, making it the latest Silicon Valley heavyweight to tap the city’s rich vein of AI research.
