AI Summary

An on-site internship at Kitware for PhD students in Computer Science or AI, developing algorithms in computer vision, NLP, LLMs, foundation models, and multimodal analysis for government and commercial research projects.

About this role

Team Description:
Kitware is a leader in cutting-edge research and algorithm development for artificial intelligence (AI), including automated image, video, text, and multimodal analysis. Our solutions embracing AI add measurable value to government agencies, commercial organizations, and academic institutions worldwide. We have developed a deep understanding in extracting useful, actionable information from multiple data sources like images, video, metadata, audio, and text, and we recognize the need for robust, affordable solutions. We seek to advance AI, computer vision, and other related fields through research and development and collaborative projects that can contribute to our open source software platforms, such as XAITK, NRTK, and ALIGN.
About the Projects:
The AI Research interns will be able to explore their own ideas to address challenging real-world AI problems. They will be encouraged to publish the results of their work in academic papers submitted to premier conferences. We consider the work that we do on our government contracts as one of the ways that we give back to the community. We partner with premier government R&D agencies such as DARPA, IARPA, AFRL, NVESD, NOAA, and other branches of the US Government on a range of efforts, including prime contracts, SBIRs, and STTRs.
