Episode 12: Federated Learning Noticia

#podcast #T2E4 Data privacy is one of the most important challenges facing artificial intelligence. To build models, it is often necessary to have access to all the data, and in the case of particularly sensitive data, it involves numerous ethical issues. Federated learning was born to offer a viable alternative: building large-scale models using many […]

Episode 11: The perceptron Noticia

#podcast #T2E3 The first neural networks emerged in the 50’s. At first they consisted of very few neurons, and long training processes, but they already gave very relevant results in very varied fields such as astronomy or chemistry. Today we talk about the percpetron, the multilayer perceptron, and its applications in various fields with Sebastián […]

#conference The solemn opening ceremony of the academic year 2021 – 2022 of the E.T.S. de Ingenierías Informática y de Telecomunicación, counts in this edition with a lecture on artificial intelligence applied to forensic anthropology and human identification. The inaugural lecture will be given by Professor Óscar Cordón, Professor of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence […]

AI experiences on health and interpretability Noticia

#webinnar Natalia Diaz, DaSCI researcher, participates in this event organized by NVIDIA to give a presentation on Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) a concept of high relevance for the interpretability of Artificial Intelligence algorithms, and in the particular case of health.

Episode 10: Data AstroScience Noticia

#podcast #T2E2 The study of data is fundamental to any science. Statistics and processing algorithms play a fundamental role for fields like Astronomy and Astrophysics, where observations are noisy. But at the same time, they allow us to calculate orbits to detect planets light years away from our planet. We will talk about astronomy and […]

Episode 9: The neuron Noticia

#podcast #T2E9 Already at the dawn of artificial intelligence, scientists looked to nature. And specifically, the human brain, the paradigm of “natural” intelligence. So the logical thing to do was to be inspired, and create analogues of neurons and their connections. In this way, back in the 1950s, the foundations of neural networks as we […]

Paseos Matemáticos por Granada. Un estudio entre Arte, Ciencia e Historia Noticia

Álvaro Martínez-Sevilla This books presents a study between Art, Science and History. It contains perhaps the first proposal for a systematic study of mathematics that it can be found in the monumental heritage of a city. With 22 Walks that contain the analysis of many monuments, it reveals how they show functional mathematics (which have […]

Edna Bernal tells us about her experience as a DaSCI doctoral student Noticia

My name is Edna Bernal, I was born in Colombia, I am a systems engineer from the Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia UPTC, since 2014 I am a teacher and researcher at the Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia UNAD, currently a PhD candidate in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) at the University of […]

Episode 8: Black… boxes? Noticia

#podcast #T1E8 In this episode we will talk about the obscure science of “Interpretability” and “explainability“, particularly in artificial neural networks. We will try to unravel several mysteries together with an all-star cast. We will try to explain why neural networks, usually considered as black boxes, decide to classify that image as a cat, or […]

Episode 7: Connected Health Noticia

#podcast #T1E7 The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new paradigm in which different devices interact with each other without human intervention. This leads to self-organizing networks where there are devices in charge of measuring the environment, the sensors, and others in charge of acting on it, the actuators, which allow to control spaces to […]

“Artificial Intelligence for all audiences” is the title of the talk with which the Ada Lovelace Lecture Series begins Noticia

We open this new space for dissemination with Nerea Luis, PhD in Computer Science, co-founder of T3chFest and Artificial Intelligence Engineer at Sngular and passionate about dissemination, artificial intelligence and robotics.
