Abstract
KI-SIGS (“KI-Space für intelligente Gesundheitssysteme”,
engl.: AI Space for Intelligent Health Systems), is an initiative
to strengthen the Northern German health ecosystem to meet
the challenges it is facing due to the rise of AI technologies.
We present KI-SIGS by first describing the current state of
the health ecosystem and the challenges it is facing. Then, we
present our approach to meet those challenges, which basically
consists of the interplay of three components: (i) an adaptive
AI platform, (ii) an R&D (research and development) program
using this platform, and (iii) the ecosystem itself. The initial
partners of KISIGS are described, and finally, an outlook on
sustainability options is given
