What is the CIM? One of the biggest research center on intelligent systems in North America: • More than 120 graduate students (electrical, computer and mechanical eng., CS) • 19 professors • Staff (around 20 people) • 12 research labs And I have 10 minutes to talk about it…
What is an Intelligent Machine? • “Intelligent machines are capable of adapting their goal-oriented behaviour by sensing and interpreting their environment, making decisions and plans, and then carrying out those plans using physical actions.” Source: CIM Mission Statement
