Intelligent Systems Discipline
- ADAPT Irelands National Research Centre for Digital Content Technology
- Learnovate Centre for Learning Technology
- TCD Research The Discipline leads five TCD research themes and centres
Head of Discipline: Professor Declan O'Sullivan
The Discipline's main focus is on computational issues related to perception; cognition; decision and interaction by, and between, systems and their human users. These are explored through applications that include health, entertainment, e-learning, digital humantities and distributed systems management.
Key research areas are: linguistic analysis; vision and graphics; logic-based representation of knowledge; semantic modelling; data engineering; machine learning; knowledge engineering and visualization; and user interaction.
