TRUSTAI

About the Project

Transparent, Reliable and Unbiased Smart Tool for AI

Due to their black-box nature, existing artificial intelligence (AI) models are difficult to interpret, and hence trust. Practical, real-world solutions to this issue cannot come only from the computer science world. The EU-funded TRUST-AI project is involving human intelligence in the discovery process. It will employ 'explainable-by-design' symbolic models and learning algorithms and adopt a human-centric, 'guided empirical' learning process that integrates cognition. The project will design TRUST, a trustworthy and collaborative AI platform, ensure its adequacy to tackle predictive and prescriptive problems and create an innovation ecosystem in which academics and companies can work independently or together.

Industrial Engineering and Management

The Centre for Industrial Engineering and Management (CEGI) is internationally recognised in the fields of decision science, optimisation, operations management and service engineering. The mission is to support organisations and communities in decision-making by harnessing the power of data to develop robust and sustainable solutions to complex problems. Research at CEGI focuses on real-world challenges like transport planning, supply chain management, healthcare service networks, industrial operations optimisation, disaster response and recovery, and the impact assessment of public policies. By resorting to Artificial Intelligence, data science and mathematical modelling, CEGI aims to understand system behaviours, improve process efficiency, increase organisational resilience, and anticipate the effects of decisions in uncertain contexts. CEGI operates across critical sectors including mobility, healthcare, retail, industry, energy, and services, focusing on digital transition and sustainability. We collaborate with academia, companies, municipal authorities, hospitals, and regulators, transforming scientific knowledge into applied solutions. We believe that evidence-based management is key to tackling the challenges of a constantly changing world.
