An Artificial Intelligence (AI) software system jointly designed and developed by City University (CityU) and the MTR Corporation has won an innovative application award from the American Association for Artificial Intelligence.
The award-winning AI Engine, which has been in daily use since July last year, is an intelligent scheduling software for the efficient allocation and management of engineering resources for existing MTR lines, the Airport Express and the future Disneyland Resort Line.
Andy Chun, an associate professor at CityU's department of computer science, is the first person in China to receive the award.
'I believe our AI technology can easily be applied to many different types of organisation in Hong Kong to help them streamline their operations and maximise their performance and revenue,' said Dr Chun (below left)
