Sixth Call For AI Research Proposal
In the AI Research Grant Call 2024, AI Singapore invites proposals that advance the state of the art in fundamental AI research towards the following AI vision:
Vision: Discriminating Information
This vision centres on advancing the state of the art in
fundamental AI research to improve our ability to discriminate information from mis/disinformation
, to understand the negative impacts of false information and how to prevent / mitigate such impacts.
Enabling fundamental AI research topics include:
– Information authentication, bias, benchmarks and evaluation
– Interpretation and generation
– Assessment of impact and user profiling
The proposal should address the vision listed above. Alternative visions will not be considered for evaluation.
We highly encourage proposals to have a clear research focus of a single vision.
The Programme will support each proposal for a duration of
up to 3 years
. Funding of each proposal is
up to S$1 million
(inclusive of 30% IRC).

Fifth Call For AI Research Proposal
In the AI Research Grant Call 2022, AI Singapore invites proposals that advance the state of the art in fundamental AI research for enabling and realising the following visions of the future:
Vision 1: Discriminating Information
This vision centres on advancing the
state of the art in fundamental AI research to improve our ability to discriminate information from mis/disinformation
, to understand the negative impacts of false information and how to prevent / mitigate such impacts.
Enabling fundamental AI research topics include:
– Information authentication, bias, benchmarks and evaluation
– Interpretation and generation
– Assessment of impact and user profiling
Vision 2: Towards Human Omnitasking
This vision centres on advancing the
state of the art in fundamental AI research to enable humans to perform a range of tasks more efficiently
, and to facilitate effective multitasking.
Enabling fundamental AI research topics include:
– Multimodal understanding and summarisation / Conversational NLP
– Cognitive state tracking / Common sense reasoning
– Behaviour understanding / Personalisation
– Trustworthy and explainable AI / Human-AI collaboration
Vision 3: Removing Unwanted Digital Footprints
This vision centres on advancing the
state of the art in fundamental AI research to improve our ability to control the footprints that we leave behind us on AI systems that use our data
.
Enabling fundamental AI research topics include:
– Definition of unwanted footprints
– Footprint removal algorithms
– Footprint removal auditing
– Evaluation of organisational trustworthiness
Vision 4: AI for Science
This vision centres on advancing the
state of the art in fundamental AI research to aid and accelerate the scientific discovery process
.
Enabling fundamental AI research topics include:
– AI for natural law extraction and understanding
– Foundational AI models for fast, accurate, large-scale scientific discovery
– AI for inverse design in science
– AI that maximises a priori knowledge
– AI for data-sparse science
– Learning representations for scientific creativity
– AI for quantum science
Each proposal should address one of the four visions listed above. Alternative visions will not be considered for evaluation. We highly encourage proposals to have a clear research focus of a single vision.
The Programme will support each proposal for a duration of
up to 5 years
. Funding of each proposal is
up to S$5 million
(inclusive of 30% IRC) for high-impact projects requiring large-scale collaboration and integration.
