Core AI Engine

• Five schools from the HES-SO (HEIG-VD, HEIA-FR, HE-Arc, HEVS and HEPIA)
• Project called Centre Suisse d’Intelligence Artificiel à destination des PMEs (CSIA-PME), also known as the Swiss AI Center.
• The center’s mission is to accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence in the digital transition of Swiss SMEs.

• The platform at app.swiss-ai-center.ch is a Swiss/regional implementation aligned with the AI-on-Demand (AIoD) concept.
• It is not the official pan-European AIoD platform, but it is technically and strategically aligned with it.
• In the context of AI4EU and AI4Europe, AIoD is a marketplace and sandbox where companies, especially SMEs, can access pre-trained models, datasets, and compute without building massive infrastructure.

• The Swiss AI Center and its Core AI Engine perform this exact role for the Swiss ecosystem.
• It provides a catalog of AI assets (algorithms, tools, and services) that SMEs can call upon to build prototypes.

And a list of “Steps” representing the sequel of services to run with the following data:

• Identifier (used in the “needs”, “conditions” and “inputs” values)
• Needs (used to wait until all the services in the array finished their task)
