H-SMART Lab receives funding from National Science Foundation on Trustworthy AI.
We are excited to kick off this NSF-funded project with our collaborators from UPenn and UC Riverside. Together, we will develop novel and comprehensive trustworthy AI tools providing the umbrella addressing technical (specifically, AI safety and AI security) and social (specifically, AI fairness) trust issues arising in AI systems embedded in transportation cyber-physical systems.
