Key Research Areas
How the Labs Work
We partner with organizations across various sectors to identify specific challenges that can be addressed with Frugal AI.
We match AI developers with these organizations to co-create and test Frugal AI solutions in a controlled environment.
We apply Frugal AI frameworks to benchmark the efficiency, TCO, and impact of the solutions.
We provide guidance and support throughout the piloting process, from design to evaluation.
Focus Areas/Example Projects
Healthcare: Piloting AI-powered diagnostic tools for use in resource-constrained healthcare settings.
Agriculture: Testing AI solutions for precision agriculture to improve crop yields and reduce waste.
Environment: Validating AI models for optimizing energy consumption and monitoring environmental conditions.
Urban Sustainability: Piloting Frugal AI solutions to analyze urban cooling using minimal data.
Connection to Techniques & Methodologies
The Adoption Labs provide a platform for applying the Frugal AI techniques and methodologies described in our research (e.g., model pruning, edge AI) to real-world problems.
We help organizations implement these techniques to achieve specific goals, such as reducing energy consumption, lowering costs, or improving accessibility.
