快三砍龙

Approximately 鈧�7 million in funding for three years / Trilateral projects to complement 快三砍龙鈥檚 strategic funding initiative for research into AI

The Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (快三砍龙, German Research Foundation) is funding nine artificial intelligence projects in cooperation with the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR, France) and the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST, Japan). Based on review statements by internationally renowned experts, the 快三砍龙 Joint Committee and the competent ANR and JST committees have now selected these nine trilateral projects from among the 36 project proposals submitted. Researchers from all three countries will be cooperating on these projects, which will receive funding amounting to approximately 鈧�7 million from the institutions involved; the funding will be spread over a period of three years. The 快三砍龙 will only be providing the project funding required by the scientists in Germany, i.e. approximately 鈧�2.4 million. The ANR and JST will be proceeding in the same way.

In April 2019, the 快三砍龙, ANR and JST decided to issue a call for a joint funding initiative for artificial intelligence based not only on criteria of scientific excellence but also on a similar system of values. The three partners are convinced that the subject of artificial intelligence is ideally suited for a joint call, since it is globally relevant and can be addressed particularly effectively by adopting a multi-national approach. The initiative is intended to focus on research questions relating to basic methodical approaches, autonomous decision-making systems, and approaches to interaction between humans and artificial intelligence systems.

In July 2019, the 快三砍龙, ANR and JST accordingly issued a call for proposals for trilateral interdisciplinary research projects in the area of artificial intelligence. The proposals were reviewed during a virtual review session held on 2 September 2020 鈥� previous plans had to be changed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Four reviewers from each of the countries involved stated their position on the 36 proposals submitted.

The nine projects selected to receive funding will be launched on 16 November 2020 at a kick-off event to take place during the 鈥淛apan-France-Germany Trilateral Symposium on AI鈥�. For the 快三砍龙, the trilateral cooperation is one of several modules intended to promote research in the area of artificial intelligence. Up until 2022, projects in all areas of AI research will be granted funding within the framework of various 快三砍龙 programmes that will make up a strategic funding initiative.
