【AI Seminar】November 11, 2025 – “AI Driven Smart City - a Case Study of Taipei” – Dr. Da-Sheng Lee
2025.11.07
Topic: Agentic AI in Action: Integrating Autonomous Systems at NCHU Speaker: Dr. Da-Sheng Lee – Lifetime Distinguished Professor, National Taipei University of Technology & Director, Taipei Smart City Project Management Office" Time: November 11, 2025 (Tuesday), 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. Venue: The Management Building, 11F, AI Lecture Hall Join Online: https://reurl.cc/K9VY6n or scan QR code on poster About the Speaker:   Dr. Da-Sheng Lee is a Lifetime Distinguished Professor at National Taipei University of Technology and holds multiple leadership roles, including Director of TPMO and Technical Director at ITRI’s Green Energy Labs. He integrates academia, industry, and research to implement energy-saving and carbon-reduction technologies. His team has assisted over 100 factories across 19 sectors in Taiwan, optimizing air compressors, chillers, cooling towers, and boilers, and introduced AI-driven solutions achieving deep industrial energy savings. From 2015–2024, he published 28 SCI papers on AI for energy efficiency, with 47 SCI/EI papers total, earning recognition as a top global author and a 2024 Stanford World’s Top 2% Scientist. Abstract: Since 2016, Taipei’s TPMO has implemented 315 PoC projects to advance smart city development. By 2024, Taipei ranked 16th in the Smart City Index and 27th in the Cities in Motion Index, while carbon emissions fell 11.9% from 12,409,700 to 10,931,500 tons CO₂, showing that smart initiatives also drive sustainability. Using a five-stage framework to standardize PoC data, the study finds collaboration between large corporations and SMEs/startups forms an “economy co-evolution loop,” key for intelligence and sustainability. A six-stage AI-Driven Smart City Framework is proposed, integrating city-scale evaluation, AI research loops, and PoC duplicate loops to guide citywide AI deployment. Organizers: College of Intelligent Computing & Artificial Intelligence Research Center ※ No registration needed.

He has guided 181 students to their Ph.D. degrees and supervised 31 postdoctoral research fellows.   Abstract:   The term “Artificial Intelligence (AI)” was coined in 1956. The field evolved slowly in the first 55 years. Yet, we have witnessed rapid advances in AI in the last decade. A recent successful example is the emergence of large language models. In this talk, I will shed light on two issues. First, I will explain the reasons for the advancement of AI in the last decade. Simply speaking, modern AI relies on numerous training samples that contain input/output pairs. An AI system provides a data-fitting solution to capture input and output mapping. Second, I will present two data–fitting methodologies: deep learning (DL) and green learning (GL). Although DL is dominant today, it is neither interpretable nor sustainable. Developing an alternative, interpretable, and sustainable AI methodology is challenging but essential. I have researched this problem since 2015. GL models offer energy-efficient AI solutions in cloud centers and mobile/edge devices. They have been successfully applied to various applications. I will use several medical imaging examples to highlight the differences between DL and GL solutions.     Organizers: College of Intelligent Computing & Artificial Intelligence Research Center   ※ No registration needed.
