Artificial Intelligence in Design Group

The AI in Design Group (AIDG) at WPI has been involved for over 20 years in a variety of design-related projects. It has had a wide variety of distinguished visitors. It tries to maintain links with other AI in Design researchers worldwide, and keep up with their research. Much of this information is captured in the AI in Design Webliography, and in the Design Directory.

The group has been meeting every week to discuss the research of group members, to review papers, and to discuss research issues. Members of this group are also involved with Artificial Intelligence Research Group activities.
