ScaDS Lab, IIIT Bangalore

Welcome to the ScaDS.ai (Scalable Data Science & Artificial Intelligence) Lab! ScaDS.ai is a research laboratory founded by Prof. Vinu E. Venugopal in 2021 at the International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore (IIITB). The ScaDS.ai team focuses primarily on developing scalable solutions for diverse big data problems. The “Big” here refers to not just the volume of the data but also challenges concerning the variety, veracity, and velocity of the data.

This laboratory is a part of the Big Data Research Center established by Prof. Srinath Srinivasa in 2019 to enable collaboration between IIIT Bangalore, with City University London, as the UK partner, and Siemens Research, India, as the industry partner. In addition to the Royal engineering FCRA grant, the lab is also supported by several other grants and funding. Past projects carried out in the Big Data Research Center can be found on the WSL website.
