Advancing research, innovation, and exploration in the field of artificial intelligence at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca.
AIRi@UTCN opening ceremony will take place on 18th of November
The Artificial Intelligence Research Institute (AIRi) is a nexus for collaborative research at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca. AIRi@UTCN promotes excellence in AI theory and practice, bringing together researchers across UTCN around a vision of open collaboration. Our work spans interdisciplinary research, AI literacy across disciplines, and impact through business and public co-creation partnerships.
AIRi@UTCN joins Novembre Numérique 2026, organised by the Institut français de Cluj-Napoca, contributing to an interdisciplinary programme exploring art and artificial intelligence. A highlight is the live demonstration of Crystallize, developed through an ongoing collaboration between French artist Benoît Challand and UTCN researchers.
The Artificial Intelligence Research Institute was truly honored to welcome three distinguished representatives of the Romanian and Moldovan academic communities: Academician Marius Andruh (President of the Romanian Academy), Academician Ion Tighineanu (President of the Academy of Sciences of Moldova), and Academician Dorel Banabic (President of the Technical Sciences Section of the Romanian Academy).
The Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, in collaboration with partners from the Romanian Artificial Intelligence Hub (HRIA), organized the 22nd edition of the IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP 2026) in Cluj-Napoca, from October 22 to 24, 2026.
Research scholarship opportunity offered by Adobe for PhD students working in Artificial Intelligence and related fields.
