Overview
About the programme
Our research on Artificial Intelligence technologies to facilitate citizen science learning focuses on motivating citizen action. These include technologies to support citizens’ identification of species using natural language generation to provide formative feedback, automatically generating multiple-choice quizzes to test learning, and intelligently visualising ecological data to engage citizens.
The Intelligent System and Data Science group pioneers research in Digital Humanities, Smart Cities and Robotics, and Scholarly Data Analytics. Finally, our research in Data Science and AI for scholarly communication has produced the world’s largest collection of open access research papers (CORE), and a variety of cutting edge technologies to support editorial processes at Springer Nature. Tis Data Science and Extended Intelligence programme is offered at The Open University UK.
