California Institute of Technology and Technology Innovation Institute announce major collaboration

Abu Dhabi, UAE:– California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and Technology Innovation Institute (TII) have today announced a global strategic partnership to collaborate on key research priorities. The three-year, multi-million-dollar partnership includes a comprehensive exchange of researchers enabling the partners to conduct interdisciplinary research in the areas of autonomous systems, quantum algorithms, low precision AI, biotechnology, and propulsion systems. The partnership will also focus on sustainable technologies to contribute to the reduction of environmental risks.

The collaboration on autonomous systems topics brings together the expertise in TII’s Autonomous Robotics Research Center (ARRC) and Caltech’s Center for Autonomous Systems and Technologies (CAST). The combined team will push the boundaries in autonomous systems, advanced control systems, and high-speed drones.

All research projects under the partnership will be driven by real-world use cases, focused on finding solutions to the challenges of tomorrow, today. The quantum team will target the development and optimized encoding of new quantum algorithms and quantum neural networks, while the artificial intelligence research projects will focus on low precision AI and the emerging topic of developing new neural network models for energy constraint edge devices. The biotech emphasis will be on advancing cell therapy frameworks, and the propulsion experts will collaborate on emission
