Uzbekistan's AI Implementation Program for 2025−2026
The government of Uzbekistan has approved a comprehensive program to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) technologies across various sectors, including healthcare, legal systems, aerospace, transport, and public safety. This initiative covers over 60 projects to be executed by ministries, agencies, medical and scientific institutions, in cooperation with the private sector. The focus areas extend to public services, ecology, industry, and more.
Healthcare
AI will enhance medical service quality with pilot projects in Tashkent's Almazar and Yunusabad districts. These projects introduce a digital medical assistant featuring voice recognition within the Unified Medical Information System (DMED) to automate medical examination documentation.
Early breast cancer detection will be improved through AI-based mammographic screening pilots at the National Oncology Center and a private clinic. Additionally, a software tool for analyzing CT scans and X-rays will help identify thoracic oncology risks at the National Phthisiology and Pulmonology Center.
Further initiatives include AI systems to forecast pharmaceutical market demand and assist clinical decision-making, supporting healthcare professionals in delivering timely and accurate care.
Judicial System
The program introduces a legal assistance module for citizens, including a calculator for court costs. A platform will analyze regulatory legal documents to serve citizens, lawyers, and judges. Also planned is a system to record court proceedings in Uzbek with speaker diarization, improving accuracy and accessibility.
Aerospace Monitoring
AI will analyze agricultural crop yields and assess pasture vegetation in pilot areas. It will monitor power transmission lines and determine optimal solar panel locations. The technology will also detect unauthorized land use and construction activities.
Transport, Logistics and Public Safety
At Tashkent’s railway stations, the UzFace facial recognition system will be introduced. AI will monitor railway track conditions and road pavement quality. A hazardous situation alert system, modeled on international standards, is also planned.
Additional projects include:
- AI models to enhance satellite image accuracy;
- Driver monitoring systems for public and freight transport to detect drowsiness, phone use, and other risks;
- AI tools for calculating court costs and providing legal support;
- Automated drafting of court rulings;
- Legal analysis platforms for various users;
- Computer vision systems to identify individuals by clothing, hair color, and carried objects.
Ecology, Industry, Services, and Other Sectors
The UzFace system will also support detecting littering through surveillance cameras. An information system will identify minor public violations such as smoking in prohibited areas, jaywalking, and scooter-related safety breaches, automatically recording violators.
Other notable projects include:
- AI-based detection of public procurement violations;
- Automated verification of supplier bank accounts in public spending;
- Detection of changes at mineral deposits using radar satellite data;
- Development of a national language model;
- A mobile app with sign language translation features;
- Robotic systems assessing infrastructure accessibility for people with disabilities;
- AI-driven weather forecasting using historical data;
- Voice and text chatbots on the public services portal;
- Automated data checking and form filling from uploaded documents;
- Automation of public service call centers with voice bots;
- Voice-controlled form filling on the public service portal;
- Training courses in AI for government employees and IT specialists.
To support these initiatives, a high-performance computing cluster with GPUs and big data infrastructure will be acquired for Inha University in Tashkent.
This program reflects Uzbekistan’s commitment to integrating AI technologies thoughtfully across government and public sectors, aiming for improved efficiency, transparency, and service quality.
