Synthetik Supports European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems (ELLIS)

Synthetik Applied Technologies LLC is proud to join some top names in supporting the future of AI research in Europe.

ELLIS focuses on modern AI, which relies heavily on machine learning methods such as deep neural networks that allow computers to learn from data and experience. Machine learning recently made great progress in solving long-standing challenges such as computer vision, speech recognition and machine translation. It will also be an essential technology for self-driving vehicles and advancements in medicine.

A number of European companies have already agreed to support this initiative including Audi, AVL, Bayer, Bosch, Greiner, Porsche, Siemens as well as US companies such as Amazon, Facebook, Google, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, with Synthetik recently joining these prestigious companies.

Geoffrey Hinton, Emeritus Professor of Computer Science at the University of Toronto, an engineering Fellow at Google and one of the leading scientists in AI, says: "Deep learning is at the core of the staggering progress we are witnessing in AI today. Companies such as Google, Facebook, Amazon, Apple and Microsoft are investing billions in developing this technology. If Europe wants to keep up with North America and China, it needs to focus its major AI investments on deep learning."
