Theta Labs has secured Kangwon National University’s Data Analytics & Machine Intelligence Lab as its latest academic customer, marking its 23rd AI and video client. This partnership, announced recently, represents a significant milestone for Theta EdgeCloud as it expands its presence in the academic research sector while maintaining over 85% GPU utilization across its global network.
The collaboration brings Theta’s decentralized computing resources to DAMI Lab, led by Professor Kyeongpil Kang, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Kangwon National University. Professor Kang, who earned his Ph.D. from Korea University under Professor Jaegul Choo, brings extensive industry experience from positions at SK Telecom AI Center, Scatter Lab, and Liner.
This partnership enhances Theta’s growing roster of enterprise and academic clients, which now includes notable names from various sectors: the NHL’s Las Vegas Knights, esports organizations FlyQuest and Evil Geniuses, and prestigious academic institutions including Seoul National University, KAIST, University of Oregon, Michigan State University, and Singapore’s NTU research institution.
DAMI Lab specializes in three key research areas that will benefit from Theta’s decentralized GPU infrastructure:
1. Natural Language Processing & Large Language Models: Focusing on LLM fine-tuning, Chain of Thought processes, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, and AI alignment techniques.
2. Machine Learning & Deep Learning: Creating specialized training datasets and developing real-world AI applications for domain-specific challenges.
3. Data Mining & AI-Driven Insights: Applying advanced analytics powered by machine learning and LLMs to fields like social sciences and medical AI research.
The laboratory will utilize Theta EdgeCloud’s hybrid cloud-edge GPU computing platform to advance several technical initiatives, including enhanced language models, multi-agent AI systems development, edge AI deployment, and optimization of AI training efficiency. Theta’s distributed computing framework offers the lab cost-effective access to the scalable processing power necessary for large-scale AI experimentation.
This collaboration highlights Theta’s expanding influence in the AI computing sector, with its network now supporting over 230 million TFUEL locked by Elite Booster node operators. As the first hybrid cloud-edge GPU computing platform of its kind, Theta continues to bridge the gap between academic research capabilities and the high-performance computing resources required for advanced AI development.
