Institute of Industrial Research

The Institute of Industrial Research (IIR) is a specialist research cluster which works with industry and business to increase global competitiveness through the expert application of Artificial Intelligence. This emerging, multidisciplinary field spans science, engineering, mathematics, psychology and computing to devise computational systems that adapt and learn by interacting with their environments. The IIR specialises in applied AI solutions to industrial problems. These include:

• diagnostics and failure prediction for process machines
• embedded intelligence for management systems
• image processing for security and surveillance
• medical analysis

The institute is proud of both its collaborative research credentials as well as the results of its applied and contract based research activities.  The depth and breadth of the work being undertaken is reflected in the number of departments our work spans, the companies we engage with and our members' backgrounds.
