The system prioritizes user control and operational reliability through...
The National Science Foundation Division of Computer and Network Systems awarded the University of Delaware a cooperative agreement valued at $5 million on July 15, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop and deploy human-AI cooperative systems for dynamic rehabilitation settings. The award funds the NSF AI Institute for Human-AI Cooperation, which will establish a symbiotic framework enabling AI systems to function as adaptive teammates in human-centered, personalized decision-making. The institute will conduct convergent AI research organized around three integrated thrusts: multiscale and multimodal modeling that unifies diverse data sources and knowledge graphs for grounded learning representations; ethical, human-aligned AI assistive technology; and approaches that align AI operation with the evolving goals of human decision makers across multiple timescales. The research integrates grounded sensing, multiscale modeling, and human-centric decision-making to develop AI systems that optimize solutions, adapt to context and instructions, and support more effective decision-making. Deliverables include research innovations in rehabilitation science, workforce development initiatives, stakeholder engagement, and expanded societal benefits from AI deployment. The University of Delaware, a research institution headquartered in Newark, Delaware, serves as the prime recipient. The award runs through June 30, 2031, with performance at the Newark, Delaware campus.
