About REPAI – Responsible AI for Value Creation

By examining real-world use cases, we aim to offer new insights, foster a shared interdisciplinary language, and propose necessary updates to existing AI legislation. Our goal is to assist private companies and public organizations in building trusted, ethical, and compliant AI solutions. Additionally, we are committed to advancing interdisciplinary collaboration, benefiting the next generation of researchers, and through this influencing our students who will propagate our findings and values into society.

Our Approach

True interdisciplinary collaboration hinges on three key principles:

  1. Collective Work on Real-World Cases: Researchers from diverse fields work together on practical, real-world problems, rather than speculative scenarios.
  2. Physical Proximity: Researchers sit together, facilitating seamless knowledge exchange and viewpoint sharing.
  3. Iterative Learning: An ongoing, adaptive process that builds a shared understanding and language across disciplines.

Who we are

The REPAI project is hosted by Aalborg University (AAU) in collaboration with Copenhagen University (KU) and Aarhus University (AU). We are also supported by a diverse group of international scholars across various research fields, ensuring a broad and comprehensive approach to our work.

Funder

The interdisciplinary research project REPAI is supported by Grundfos Poul Due Jensen Foundation with 24 million DKKR.

The project is hosted by Aalborg University

Real-World Impact

REPAI deals with profiling and the ability to predict or categorize individuals and their actions.

Our initial use cases include:

  • Video Surveillance on the harbor front in collaboration with Milestone Systems.
  • AI in Eldercare in partnership with Aalborg Municipality.

These use cases are chosen for their potential to create value, intersect with regulations and public opinion, making them ideal for our interdisciplinary approach.

Long-Term Impact

REPAI aims to shape the future of AI in several impactful ways:

  • Value Creation: Enhancing the capabilities of private and public sectors in developing regulatory-compliant AI, positioning Denmark as a leader in responsible AI.
  • Policy Influence: Assisting policymakers in Denmark and the EU in refining AI regulations to balance business needs, ethical considerations, and public trust.
  • Education: Inspiring and educating the next generation of AI researchers and developers to focus on responsible AI solutions rooted in interdisciplinary research.

Agile and Adaptive

Given the rapid evolution of AI, our center operates with agility, organized into eight six-month periods. Each period’s specifics are defined at the end of the previous one and approved by our steering committee, ensuring that we remain responsive and relevant to the fast-moving field of AI.

Join us in pioneering responsible and value-driven AI that serves the people.
