Robert Murakami<\/span> is the new Executive Director of the Alberta Ingenuity Centre for Machine Learning.<\/span>  <\/p>\n

He’s also the President and CEO of the Centre’s new commercialization arm and that’s a company called Myriad Machine Learning<\/span>.  <\/p>\n

It’s Murakami’s job to bring researchers and investors together to help translate science into industrial applications.  <\/p>\n

ROBERT MURAKAMI:  Machine learning is the fundamental engine for analyzing and predicting large datasets,  much like predictability within a hospital environment, much like predicting whether or not the existing oil wells in this province are actually being managed efficiently.  Because it’s such a platform technology and because we know that information technology is growing at an enormous rate, and we now have a gazillion gazillion bytes of information floating around, how does all that get analyzed and now can we actually utilize it to create something better for people?<\/p>\n

Through Myriad and the Alberta Ingenuity Centre for Machine Learning, Robert Murakami is also offering business bootcamps to university students to encourage entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

Thanks today to ALBERTA INGENUITY.<\/p>\n

Alberta Ingenuity<\/a><\/h3>\n

Established in 2000, the Alberta Ingenuity Fund supports science and engineering research of the highest calibre, to create a prosperous future for the province of Alberta. It draws funding from a $1 billion endowment established in 2000 and managed by the Government of Alberta to build the capacity for innovation, especially in areas with long lasting social and economic impact. <\/p>\n

Among its many programs, Alberta Ingenuity supports graduate students and university researchers, industrial research and commercialization partnerships, and has established several Centres and Institutes.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn January 2010, under the new Alberta Innovation Framework, Alberta Ingenuity was restructured and absorbed in the new agency Alberta Innovates Technology Solutions.<\/p>\n
