Industry Services
Mila offers tailor-made services to businesses and private and public organizations to help them maximize the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in their activities.
The separation between business applications and academic AI research can sometimes make it difficult for organizations to identify and adopt the right technologies to tackle specific problems.
To bridge this gap, Mila’s applied machine learning research team works with organizations on high-impact and challenging machine learning projects. The team's unique collaborative approach aims at designing and implementing cutting-edge solutions that benefit organizations by enriching their machine learning capabilities. Whether your project requires natural language processing, computer vision, or other forms of expertise, our team's diverse skill set can help you achieve your goals.
We offer services with flexible options for industrial and intellectual property concerns and exciting funding opportunities.
Applied Research Projects
From the earliest stages of AI projects, our specialists aim to establish proofs of concept to help organizations capture the full value of machine learning. Our teams strive to fully understand the problem being solved and how a machine learning model will be used in production. The success of our approach is due in large part to a solid understanding of the datasets we are entrusted with and rigorous experimental protocols set up according to project objectives.

Consulting and Coaching
Our applied research experts offer advisory services to innovative Canadian small and medium -sized enterprises (SMEs) working on hands-on machine learning projects. We are committed to helping your business achieve its goals by tailoring our expertise toward your specific needs. Our team can
- Assist with the problem formalization
- Help define a robust experimental protocol
- Brainstorm ideas on how to choose the best models
- Provide guidance on model implementation
We deliver our services to Canadian SMEs with funding support from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP).
As an early stage deep tech company, it is often hard to find the resources necessary to build our full vision. Good talent, especially in the deep learning space, is very hard to find and often out of reach for startups. The interactive visits provided by Mila’s applied research team are the perfect solution to this problem. At LUCID, we have not only benefited from a number of significant product improvements from this program, our team was also able to learn from world-class talent, upgrading our core competencies. This program is one-of-a-kind, and a real driver for innovation that levels the playing field for bright-minded entrepreneurs who are early in their journey.
