The Wadhwani Institute for Artificial Intelligence was formed to build and deploy AI solutions that benefit underserved populations in developing countries, which it has actively been doing since mid-2021. We partner with government bodies and global nonprofits to ensure that our innovations will improve the lives of those who need them the most.
Currently Wadhwani AI are building AI-based solutions in the agriculture and health domains, such as pest management for cotton farms, maternal, newborn and child health, tuberculosis and COVID19.
Pest Management
Our solution is being developed to help reduce crop losses through integrated pest management in cotton farms.
Tuberculosis
We are creating technologies towards:
Newborn Anthropometry
We are creating a smartphone-based anthropometry technology, which will allow frontline workers to track baby weight in rural homes and hospital settings.
COVID-19
We provided epidemiological forecasting for COVID-19 to assist in resource planning. We also conducted research to identify signature patterns for COVID-19 using cough sounds.
