Domain-Oriented Intelligent System Research Center

Date: May 16, 2023
Introduction 
System perception, understanding, prediction and control in specific fields create challenges in real world environments such as the ocean system, urban system, network system and swarm system. Dedicated to achieving a high level of understanding and abstraction of computing architecture in such specific domains, the Domain-Oriented Intelligence System Research Center focuses on integration and improvement of signal processing, network optimization, data processing, model adaptation, intelligent computing and other capabilities.
Based on its strong academic research and technology efforts, the center has already achieved a series of representative achievements in artificial intelligence, data mining, network collaboration and intelligent computing. Its series of technical tools and computing systems mark the center as a visionary organization becoming known for international scientific research and engineering practice ability.
The center is the main supporting department of the national Hua Luogeng Intelligent Data Analysis Center, named in honor of Chinese Academy of Sciences academician Hua Luogeng (1910-1985), internationally famous mathematician and a leader of mathematics research and education in China. An author and the educator of a generation of Chinese mathematicians, he served as director of the preparatory committee of the CAS Institute of Computing Technology. Mathematical accomplishments named for him include Hua’s theorem, Weil-Hua inequation, Hua's inequation, Brauer-Cartan-Hua theorem, Hua matrices and Hua-Wang (Zhonglie) Method.
 
General Objectives
The center’s mission includes designing the new generation of evolving artificial intelligence that could improve itself in the open world, revealing the mechanism of “signal-information-knowledge-decision,” developing corresponding algorithms, building heterogeneous intelligent computing systems highly adaptable to domain application, creating the tool chain for optimization and deployment of intelligent algorithms and models, and innovating multi-agent communication and collaboration methods.
