Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
As part of CCIT’s Research, Computing, and Data Engagement group, we support faculty, students, and researchers integrating AI and machine learning into their research and teaching. Our services include consultations, workshops, training resources, proposal reviews, and guidance for effectively utilizing Clemson's Palmetto HPC Cluster. We also offer customized project support, AI-driven strategy development across disciplines, proposal development assistance, proposal review, and classroom lectures introducing foundational concepts and practical applications of AI and machine learning. Our areas of specialization include machine learning, natural language processing, large language models, computer vision, social media analysis, and data augmentation.
