Taiwan’s Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) has set aside a 5-year budget of NT$5 billion (US$165 million) specifically for developing AI (artificial intelligence) core technologies and smart applications creating an AI Innovation ecosystem consisting of 3-4 R&D centers, according to minister Chen Liang-gee.
AI R&D centers will be set up at universities, with a professor to act as director and staff members to consist of professors and associated researchers, Ph.D and masters students.
R&D will include hardware including chips, cloud computing devices and terminal devices; algorithm technologies including deep learning, Big Data analysis and forecasting, and voice and image recognition; smart applications including financial technology, and smart manufacturing, healthcare and transportation.
MOST hopes the R&D centers can develop AI core technologies and cross-field applications through integrating university resources with research organizations and enterprises, as well as cooperating with international research entities.
MOST will offer a monthly R&D stipend of up to NT$60,000 for a research project leader, much higher than the general NT$25,000 for a university research project leader.
