The Dalle Molle Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IDSIA) R&D Center
The Dalle Molle Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IDSIA) was founded in 1988 in Lugano, the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland. The institute was founded by the Dalle Molle Foundation, the “father” of the most important AI research institutes in Switzerland (IDIAP and ISSCO).
IDSIA became internationally well-known when its technology, the long short-term memory neural network (LSTM), started being used by Google, Facebook, and Apple for speech recognition, as described in this TEDxTalk by Jürgen Schmidhuber, co-founder of LTSM. When it comes to IDSIA spin-offs, the most popular is DeepMind, which was later acquired by Google.
