About 6G-XCEL
6G-XCEL will bring together a large ecosystem of researchers from the EU and US to implement elements of the DMMAI framework in their testbeds and labs. DMMAI (Decentralized Multi-party, Multi-network AI) is a reference framework for AI in 6G that will pave the way towards global validation, adoption and standardization of AI approaches. This framework will enable the federation of AI-based network controls across network domains and physical layers, while promoting security and sustainable implementations. Research on the resulting decentralized multi-party, multi-network AI (DMMAI) framework will enable the development of reference use cases, data acquisition and generation methods, data and model repositories, curated training and evaluation data, as well as technologies and functionalities for its use as a benchmarking platform for future AI/ML solutions for 6G networks.
