NTT Adopting NVIDIA AI Platform to Power Company-Wide Artificial Intelligence Initiative
13 9월 2018 - 11:09AM
GTC Japan -- NTT Group, one of the world’s
largest telecom companies, is adopting NVIDIA’s AI platform based
on Tensor Core GPUs as the common platform for its company-wide
“corevo” AI initiative, NVIDIA today announced at its GPU
Technology Conference.
NTT Group has more than 5,000 researchers and has assigned 400
AI specialists to support the corevo initiative, which extends to a
broad range of commercial products and services built on real-time
processing. These include projects in areas focused on natural
language processing in call centers, network maintenance, human
assistance and healthcare.
NTT will build corevo’s cloud-based AI resource center on the
NVIDIA® Tesla® V100 platform, which brings extraordinary speed and
scalability for AI inferencing and training, as well as for
accelerating high performance computing and graphics workloads.
Built on Volta, NVIDIA’s seventh-generation GPU architecture, Tesla
V100 GPUs include 21 billion transistors and deliver the
performance of up to 100 CPUs in a single GPU.
“With growing demand for AI across multiple industries, NVIDIA
and NTT are making advances in deep learning to tackle some of the
greatest challenges of our time,” said Ian Buck, vice president and
general manager of Accelerated Business at NVIDIA. “Through NTT’s
cloud-based resource center, NTT researchers can accelerate their
AI development to deliver powerful new AI products and services to
customers.”
Masahisa Kawashima, vice president of the NTT Software
Innovation Center, said: “Creating a common development platform
for the NTT Group will enable us to utilize the results of NTT
Group’s AI R&D effectively and accelerate the creation of new
value. I am convinced that adopting the NVIDIA AI platform will
prove vital in expanding corevo services and products.”
NTT conceived of the corevo initiative two years ago to address
a wide range of issues confronting Japanese society, particularly
related to its rapidly aging population, which is leading to a
diminishing active workforce and geriatric-related challenges.
Corevo is focused on four broad AI capabilities, including
“Agent AI” focused on natural language processing and chat for call
center and geriatric monitoring; “Ambient AI” focused on big data
analytics for traffic analysis and control; “Heart-Touching AI”
focused on body and emotional analytics for healthcare, sports and
entertainment; and “Network AI” for anonymous detection, failure
prediction and network monitoring.
