Machine Intelligence (MI)

The Machine Intelligence Group is a research unit at the Department Of Computer Science at Aalborg University.
The Machine Intelligence Group is recognized for its research on intelligent systems, such as decision support systems that help human operators to make optimal decisions in complex problems, systems that provide web-based services in an intelligent and personalized manner, and systems for intelligent data analysis. Much of the unit's research centers around the question of how to handle uncertain and incomplete information in such systems. The unit develops mathematical models, computational methods, and prototype implementations and applications.

The Machine Intelligence group conducts research in four main areas:

• Probabilistic Graphical Models:developing efficient design and inference methods for graphicalmodels; in particular, frameworks for representing and solving complex decision problems under uncertainty.

• Machine Learning and Data Mining:learning from data for knowledge discovery and design of intelligent systems. The focus is on the use of probabilistic and statistical methods, as well as the use of logic-basedmethods for modeling complex, structured data.

• Autonomous Agents:programming intelligent behavior in autonomous agents. The focus is on the use of graphical models, and applications forautonomous agents in computer games.

• Intelligent Web and Information Systems:methods, tools, and techniques for intelligent information systems and web technologies, especially personalized and adaptive provision of information and services on the web.
