Success of Polish researchers in the CHIST-ERA Call 2018

We are pleased to announce that two projects involving researchers from Poland have been awarded funding within the CHIST-ERA Call 2018. Within this funding opportunity almost EUR 9 million have been granted to 10 research projects in the topics of:

• Analog Computing for Artificial Intelligence
• Smart Distribution of Computing in Dynamic Networks

Polish researchers will be involved in the following 2 of 10 awarded projects:

• AIR: Analogue Intelligent chip for short and middle range Radar signal processing, which will involve a Polish research team led by prof. Krzysztof Ślot from the Łódź University of Technology in cooperation with partners from Finland and France;
• UNICO: Unsupervised spiking neural networks with analog memristive devices for edge computing, which will involve a Polish research team led by dr Michał Markiewicz from the Jagiellonian University in cooperation with partners from France, Canada and Switzerland.

Complete list of the CHIST-ERA Call 2018 projects recommended for funding.

We would also like to take this opportunity to invite all researchers to participate in the new CHIST-ERA Call 2019 targeting the following topics:

• Explainable Machine Learning-based Artificial Intelligence
• Novel Computational Approaches for Environmental Sustainability

The Call will be announced in October 2019. More information about the upcoming call is available at the website: CHIST-ERA Call 2019.
