2021.AI Opens Up the Grace Data and AI Platform to Accelerate the Response to COVID-19

Copenhagen, Denmark, April 04, 2020 –(PR.com)– An increasing number of people across multiple types of research institutions and companies are leveraging data-driven approaches to tackle the different problems under the COVID-19 outbreak. While many researchers and companies are working on individual projects and models, there is a tremendous potential in uniting efforts by sharing results to accelerate and improve findings, and ultimately achieve higher efficiency and better results. Collaboration and joint contributions are so much more powerful.

2021.AI will offer a collaborative AI platform to assist in fighting the COVID-19 crisis. By accelerating collaboration across communities, such as academic institutions, governmental institutions, and companies, 2021.AI offers free access to the Grace AI Platform, preloaded with a range of public data sets and standard AI models. By opening up the platform for collaboration, more people will have the opportunity to contribute and directly address COVID-19 related problems.

In addition to the Grace AI Platform, 2021.AI will offer access and free data science expertise, training, and support for AI model development. This will be delivered together with Neural, a Danish data science organization, who are joining this initiative with their members’ cross-disciplinary competencies within data science and medicine.

2021.AI believes that almost all data research and development efforts can be much more efficient when supported by data sciences expertise to substantially accelerate the development of new data, AI solutions and innovative thinking.

“We have a clear ambition with this project, which is to contribute directly with our assets and resources to assist in fighting the COVID-19 crisis. Our Grace Platform and data science expertise can both, directly and indirectly, impact COVID-19 related projects, supporting as many as possible with the new insights and solutions. The keywords here are cross-disciplinary collaboration and joint contributions making all contributors more powerful and efficient in tackling COVID-19 crisis projects,” says Mikael Munck, Founder and CEO at 2021.AI.

How Can Data Science and AI Help Tackle COVID-19 Problems?

There are many relevant use cases where advanced Data Sciences and AI can contribute to tackle COVID-19 problems and challenges. A few examples include:

· Forecast outbreaks – by identifying the characteristics of the spread and forecast future trends

· Cluster analysis, e.g., by country or regions – by clustering similar countries or regions based on their outbreak patterns and adequately act on it

· Diagnose COVID-19 – by using data to reveal hidden patterns in the virus that allows easier diagnosis

· Informative chatbots – for alleviating informative healthcare personnel based on historical interactions

· Process health claims – alleviating healthcare personnel by autonomously processing claims using natural language processing (NLP)

· Speed up drug development – by detecting patterns that characterize the challenges to overcome w.r.t. the high attrition rates in drug development and production in the pharma industry

· Optimize supply chains – production lines can be optimized by discovering hidden casualties between production stages allowing the improvement of hidden bottlenecks.

A Robust and Transparent Data and AI Platform to Ensure Collaboration and Adequate Compliance

The Grace Platform efficiently facilitates versatile and flexible collaboration, while also providing Data- and AI governance, including Audit Trail and documentation along with validation of model design principles, and internal model design parameters. Should participants in this initiative require specific AI Governance support to validate that scientific methods are trustworthy and reliable, such additional support will be individually evaluated by 2021.AI.
