Grand Challenges are open-ended outcome-driven challenges on important issues and problems faced by Singapore and the world that can be effectively addressed with AI technologies and innovations.
Past Grand Challenges
The AI for Materials Discovery Grand Challenge aims to encourage the development of innovative approaches that assist scientists with efficient exploration of materials to generate high-potential candidates. It supports ground-breaking research ideas that adopt AI techniques to address the following challenge: “How can AI accelerate inverse material design to discover advanced materials that are 50% lighter while retaining and/or enhancing their functional properties?” – Click here for more details.
The Robust AI Grand Challenge aims to encourage the development of innovative approaches that address the vulnerabilities of AI models in Computer Vision (CV) systems for Autonomous Vehicles (AV). It supports ground-breaking research ideas that adopt AI techniques to address the following challenge: “How can we design robust CV systems for AVs that can recover at least 80% of their original accuracy after physical testing-time adversarial attacks?” – Click here for more details.
