Mila and Bell last Friday announced an 18-month collaborative project to apply deep learning neural network algorithms to Bell's systems and data. Bell has made significant investments to develop extensive data analytics capabilities and AI applications in multiple areas of its operations, and this collaboration is the latest step in advancing its AI expertise.

Mila researchers will work alongside Bell's Machine Learning and AI teams to build on those investments by using cutting-edge deep learning neural network techniques to identify opportunities for improving business performance and customer experience.

These neural network deep learning models, inspired by the human brain, teach computers to recognize complex patterns in pictures, text, sounds and other data to produce accurate insights and predictions.

By advancing its understanding of deep learning AI techniques, Bell will continue to enhance its customer experience and accelerate its transition from a traditional telecommunications company to a technology services leader. As part of the collaboration, Bell and Mila will write a paper highlighting their technical findings in support of global AI advancement.

Stphane Ltourneau, Executive Vice President of Mila

Mila is very pleased to work with Bell and apply its renowned expertise in deep learning to the telecommunications sector. Through this collaboration, we look forward to combining Mila's research capabilities with Bell's extensive industry knowledge in order to highlight and harness AI's potential in this evolving field.

Michel Richer, SVP, Enterprise Solutions, Data Engineering & AI, Bell Canada

Becoming an AI leader is key to our transition from a traditional telco to a tech services leader. Working with a global leader like Mila right here in Montral is a great opportunity for Bell to benefit from leading-edge researchers, advance our AI and Cloud expertise, further improve the customer experience and establish our role as a technology services leader.
