Hong Kong — 11 March 2026 InnoHK Centre for Perceptual and Interactive Intelligence (CPII) and Corvinus University of Budapest (CUB) today signed a contract to launch a Hungarian-funded bilateral research project to develop a new artificial intelligence (AI) paradigm for interpretable and trustworthy AI. Supported by a research grant from the Hungarian National Research, Development and Innovation Office, CPII will validate a novel machine learning algorithm developed by CUB through case studies. The project aims to enhance pre-trained models through modular add-ons, with improvements in precision, explainability and provability.

CPII is delighted to announce that our research team led by Professor Yeung Yam has been awarded the Best Paper Award at ACM SIGGRAPH Asia 2025 with the paper named “Curve-Based Slicer for Multi-Axis DLP 3D Printing”. This marks the second time in three years that their work on robotized multi-axis 3D printing has received a SIGGRAPH Asia Best Paper Award. Their previous award was for S^3-Slicer which focused on multi-axis FDM 3D printing. For the context, SIGGRAPH / SIGGRAPH Asia Journal Track publishes exclusively in ACM Transactions on Graphics,...

The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) today (30 October) announced the launch of CLEVA-Cantonese, the world’s first dynamic evaluation platform and ecosystem dedicated to the Cantonese language.
