ATLANTA—The Computer Science Department held a Demo Day presentation April 22nd, demonstrating the drone system they have produced. The presentation comes after Associate Professor, Jonathan Shihao Ji recently received a $499,000 grant from the United States Department of Defense. The grant was awarded for a project titled “Multi-Agent Collaborative Learning and Inference at the Edge.”
Dr. Ji will use the funding to investigate the application of advanced AI algorithms through collaborative learning, in which devices have to work together to determine when, what, and with whom to communicate for effective tasking.
