The UTS AAII Research Seminar Series
The UTS AAII Research Seminar series is dedicated to fostering an engaging, inclusive, and interdisciplinary environment for internal and external AI researchers to share research ideas and findings in person. Our goal is to promote cross-lab communications and achieve visionary collaborations.
The series will encompass a wide range of AI topics, spanning from theoretical foundations to cutting-edge methodological development, cross-disciplinary applications, and insights from industry practices.
This monthly seminar series will offer valuable opportunities to invite world-renowned visiting scholars to share their latest research frontiers, mentor AAII’s middle and early career researchers with the guidance for research leadership, and educate HDR students to hone their presentation and communication skills to excel in their academic journeys.
