AI Deep Dive: Decoding Interactions Event Overview Join us for an AI Deep Dive session, where we’ll feature a team of VUMC researchers led by Dr. Eric Skaar, in collaboration with our dedicated Data Science team. Dr. Skaar’s laboratory, which is focusing their work in infectious diseases, looks to… Read More

On October 27th, we had the privilege of hosting an AI Deep Dive Session with Dr. Matthew Pontell, where we discussed the use of generative AI for enhancing speech therapy and improving speech dysfunction. This session brought to light the innovative strategies and recovery techniques that promise better speech… Read More

On October 6th, we had the privilege of hosting an AI Deep Dive Session with Professor Owen Jones, where conversations were had around the quest to answer the question: ‘What is “human nature” in the eyes of US Courts?’ This session spotlighted the capabilities of AI in navigating and… Read More

On September 29th, we had the privilege of hosting an AI Deep Dive Session with Dr. Krista Mehari, where insightful discussions unfolded around her project titled ‘Project GRIP’ (Gun-Related Injury Prevention). This session illuminated the potential of generative AI in organizing and analyzing qualitative data, particularly interview responses, to… Read More

More than one-third of all the bridges in America are in disrepair, according to a 2022 report. It is one of the greatest infrastructure issues facing the U.S. today. Barge Design Solutions joins the Data Science Institute for this week’s AI Deep Dive to discuss a possible collaborative effort and… Read More

Image generated by Midjourney Professor of Psychology Dr. Georgene Troseth has researched for years how artificial intelligence could help parents use dialogic questioning when reading with their children. Advances in data science could now make Dr. Troseth’s vision a reality. The project aims to create a model that could scan… Read More

Cosmic cataclysmic events such as the collision of black holes create strong gravitational waves which can be detected on Earth. Instruments such as LIGO can detect distortions of space that herald the passing of these gravity waves, but analyzing these signals is a computationally-intensive and time-consuming endeavor. Can AI… Read More

Whisper is OpenAI’s new addition to the growing portfolio of open source artificial intelligence (AI) models for speech-to-text and audio processing. Capable of predicting audio text captions, the model leverages intermixed with special tokens which enables the single model to perform tasks such as language identification, phrase-level timestamps,… Read More

Multilingual large language models have demonstrated strong performance in natural language processing tasks. In this discussion, we explore how these transformer-based models might be used to support language instruction. In the current case study, we’ll examine possible uses of these models to support instruction in Hindi. Might these models be… Read More
