Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras's Robert Bosch Centre for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (RBCDSAI), has collaborated with the Taylor & Francis Group, to amplify research projects.
Robert Bosch Centre for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at IIT Madras is one of the leading interdisciplinary research centers in the country today. The centre has twenty-eight faculty spanning ten departments for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science.
The head of RBCDSAI, Professor Balaraman Ravindran, said that the COVID-19 pandemic has pointed out the importance of opening up and collaborating in the scholarly publishing industry to share research more efficiently.
IIT Madras and Taylor Francis Group Partnership: Benefits for Researchers
The collaboration with Taylor & Francis Group will give IIT Madras more visibility for research and support services and guidance for the research scholars on publishing, he said. In addition, the researchers at the RBCDSAI centre can now avail of various opportunities such as onboarding assistance on publishing processes, research promotion, open practices, and ongoing support from the educated professionals at Taylor & Francis.
Dr Gagandeep Singh, Senior Publisher (Engineering), CRC Press mentioned, with the help of the collaboration, they can provide a plethora of information, advice and exclusive benefits to serve their authors and members in the society and association partners.
He asserted, according to the Stanford University Artificial Index Report 2021, India has the highest relative Artificial Intelligence Skill Penetration Rate in the World and the country has been ranked as one of the top five countries for growth in AI hiring.
Therefore, it is an amazing opportunity for Taylor & Francis to collaborate with an organisation that assists India in becoming a global leader. The co-branded organic commissioning programme from the leading institute will result in exchange of concerns, ideas and best practices in scholarly publishing that will be mutually advantageous, he added.
There has been a growth in Taylor & Francis’ list of outstanding titles in artificial intelligence and machine learning ranging from fundamental and theoretical concepts to advanced applications.
The collection discovers safety, security, and ethical concerns in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and cutting edge topics, including autonomous vehicles, deep learning, autonomous networks, and robotics.
