January 26, drop trip in the company headquarters announced the establishment of AI Labs, will explore the field of AI technology cutting-edge issues, and actively accelerate the technical capabilities and data resources, the organic combination of application environment, the promotion of AI technology in the intelligent travel scene more applications and innovative optimization, such as dripping brain, drop assistant and so on.
Drops the aspect said, the newly established AI labs by drops the vice President Ye Jieping professor to lead, at present the team already has more than 200 engaged in the AI frontier Technology research and development scientist and the engineer, this year scale will further enhance. This is the next drop of Research institute, the third AI Lab after the drop of the American Institute, also reflects the drop in the AI traffic technology into the layout of the determination.
According to the official introduction, Drop AI Labs will mainly explore the AI field of technical problems, focus on machine learning, natural language processing, speech recognition, computer vision, operational research, statistics and other fields of forward-looking technology research and application, and actively layout the next generation of technology, and constantly improve the user travel efficiency and optimize travel experience. At the same time drop AI Labs will also inspire more scientific and technological innovation, attract, cultivate more AI talents.
Drip-Drop travel President Liuqing said drop has been in the use of AI in solving people's travel problems, drop the force AI, is the hope that people's travel can be more convenient every day, tens of millions of of the driver can be on the drip platform to obtain income, every day can have more people feel out of the door is a safe thing.
She said: "We set up Ai Labs, is to look forward to the forefront of exploration, so that artificial intelligence can serve all mankind." We also welcome the world's top talent to join the drip, in the process of defining a trip, AI Labs will also help define the technical boundaries of the travel field. ”
Drip Travel CTO Zhang said the global transport industry will change dramatically over the next decade, and the drop will be determined to continue to invest in technology and talent.
Ye Jieping said, whether it is the passenger's pre-billing forecast destination, recommend the car point, or after the billing of the intelligent Dispatch, ETA, path planning, and even travel safe driving, after the end of the division, all the use of artificial intelligence technology; not only that, based on artificial intelligence and large data technology, Drip will accurately predict the future of urban supply and demand and scheduling in advance, the current drop on 15 minutes after the demand forecast accuracy rate has reached 85%.
After receiving 4 billion of dollars in funding late last year, the drop accelerated the layout of smart trips.
January 4, drops announced the acquisition of Brazil's local largest share of 99, the team will be through intelligent transport technology to serve the local market, to provide local cities with large data-driven intelligent transportation technology.
January 25, Drip launched the Intelligent Transportation Strategy product "drip traffic brain", will hand over the management department, the use of AI decision-making capacity to solve the problem of coordination between transport and carrying systems.
Now and invest heavily to set up AI laboratory, this series of movements also let people see drops in the field of artificial intelligence "only fast and not broken." Compared to other start-up AI companies, drops do have a unique advantage. Massive travel data and strong technical reserves have allowed the Up-and-comer to compete with the Giants. Predictably, over the next few days, we will see more drop shadows in the field of artificial intelligence.
