Huawei has announced a problem statement as part of a competition at the recent AI for Good Global Summit, the premier UN forum for open discussion on AI. Its goal is to increase awareness of the contribution of AI to the fight against climate change.
The International Telecommunication Union and the International Atomic Energy Agency are leading a group of United Nations agencies in a series of competitions designed to tap into the knowledge of the community and develop AI solutions for climate change.
The goal of the Huawei-organized 5G energy consumption modeling challenge is to create machine learning models that can lower the energy consumption of base stations made by any manufacturer. Academics from all around the world are urged to focus on this problem statement throughout the ensuing months.
