Ericsson has unveiled Cognitive Labs, an innovative initiative focused on researching and developing advanced AI technologies with Geometric AI and Machine Learning. These innovations are set to enhance telecommunications applications as well as other societal sectors.
Cognitive Labs will leverage cutting-edge methodologies such as Graph Neural Networks (GNN), Active Learning, and Large-Scale Language Models. The initiative will function virtually rather than from a fixed location, with initial operations concentrated in strategic sites including Madrid, Malaga, and Cairo.
By engaging with the open-source community, Ericsson aims to accelerate AI research, attract top-tier researchers and data scientists, and ultimately deliver superior solutions for its clients.
Cognitive Labs has established three distinct labs to continue its research activities and develop libraries as reusable components:
- Geometric Artificial Intelligence Lab
- Machine Learning and Reasoning Lab
- Fundamental Artificial Intelligence Lab
Jean-Christophe Laneri, Head of Cognitive Network Solutions at Ericsson, says: “Cognitive Labs represents our commitment to lead innovation in AI and make a significant contribution to the open source community. Our mission is to create world-class research that can benefit the academic community and enhance our products to better serve our customers.”
