TAILOR is both a project and a network, with 54 full partners and over 100 network member organisations. The purpose of the project is to build the capacity to provide the scientific foundations for Trustworthy AI in Europe. By developing a network of research excellence centres, TAILOR provides leverage and combine learning, optimisation, and reasoning. These systems are meant to provide descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive systems integrating data-driven and knowledge-based approaches.
The TAILOR network brings together leading AI research centres from learning, optimisation and reasoning together with major European companies representing important industry sectors into a single scientific network to reduce the fragmentation, boost the collaboration, and increase the AI research capacity of Europe as well as attracting and retaining talents in Europe.
The network is based on four powerful instruments: a strategic roadmap, a basic research program to address grand challenges, a connectivity fund for active dissemination to the larger AI community, and network collaboration activities promoting research exchanges, training materials and events, and joint PhD supervision.
TAILOR is an ICT-48 Network of AI Research Excellence Centers funded by EU Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme GA No 952215.
