U of T partners with Naver Corp on AI research

The University of Toronto has announced that it is collaborating with Naver Corp and its subsidiary Wattpad on artificial intelligence (AI) research projects. The five-year partnership will see U of T and Naver work together on a variety of research projects on topics such as human-computer interaction and natural language processing. “The partnership with Naver and Wattpad is a landmark corporate partnership,” said U of T AVP, international partnerships Alex Mihailidis. “It allows us to pair the support of a Toronto-based business in Wattpad with the global ambitions of their corporate parent, Naver, all while combining two of U of T’s greatest strengths in computing: artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction.” U of T Note: Archived stories may contain dead links or be missing source links.
