Developing Artificial Intelligence-driven software covering five critical areas, which will help police tackle better the changing contours of crime in an increasingly digital era, is under way with the assistance of the Kerala University of Digital Sciences, Innovation and Technology, also known as Digital University Kerala (DUK).
The initiative is part of the ongoing 45-day short-term training course based on ‘AI for All’ being held for 15 select cops, including 13 newly inducted civil police officers with technology backgrounds, as part of DUK’s capacity building initiative for government officials. The training primarily covered the application of AI, machine learning, image processing, and data analytics in policing besides an international workshop on the fast-evolving Brain Computer Interface facilitating brain reading of sorts.
“We are planning to give similar training to various government departments as part of the soon-to-be-set up Centre for Smart Governance at DUK to help them leverage technology and integrate data,” said Saji Gopinath, DUK Vice Chancellor.
