Artificial Intelligence (AI) Research & Product Development

Our AI Strategy

The AI Labs unit is central to C5i’s Applied AI research and platform strategy, enabling us to pursue strategic bets and create the “True North” for the organization and our clients. We aim to bring the latest AI technologies into our products and solutions, thereby driving automation, actionable insights, improved experience, competitive edge, and market differentiation for our client’s businesses and enabling our employees to be effective. We accomplish this by meticulously scanning a plethora of AI frameworks, models, and algorithms, choosing the appropriate ones for rapid experimentation, curating them for business alignment, and making them compatible with enterprises. We apply best practices from design thinking Responsible AI, and lean and agile frameworks in our product development methodology to bring in client-centricity, quick market validation, and reduced time-to-market.

While we actively solve complex business problems with today’s technology, we are also always preparing for the future. We are exploring and investing in new applied research areas such as unsupervised deep learning, reinforcement learning, meta-learning, contrastive learning, graph neural networks, and generative AI. We are also focused on the fusion of AI other disciplines, such as cognitive neuroscience and behavioral science, for effective decisions. We enable automation and scalability by augmenting our AI expertise with software engineering, DataOps, and MLOps practices, thereby creating breakthrough value.

Computer Perception

Building intelligent vision systems that observe and comprehend the world around us

The world around us is linguistic, acoustic, visual, and temporal. We bring deep expertise in building products that use Computer Vision and Computer Audition algorithms for image classification, age and gender determination, emotion detection, ethnicity detection, facial recognition, object detection & segmentation, optical character recognition, activity detection, and auditory scene analysis. To solve real-world problems, we apply multi-modal fusion AI techniques by combining and optimizing multiple deep learning pipelines. This expertise is leveraged in analyzing video content and providing insights to improve product positioning, brand perception, customer experience, and impact across the omnichannel ecosystem.
