#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 […]
#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 […]
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. This is a Cycle of Conferences that has at its core the DaSCI Institute’s interest in bringing Artificial Intelligence to all audiences, specialised or […]
#podcast #T1E6 In this chapter we introduce one of the basic problems that Artificial Intelligence tools try to solve: regression. Regression models try to predict a certain variable using other variables as input, so that the resulting model reveals the relationship between them. Deep Learning deals with these problems using neural networks, which are sometimes […]
The podcast sheds light into the technologies used in the processing and analysis of information. Hosted by Rocío Romero and Francisco Jesús Martínez, both researchers at the DaSCI institute, the podcast deals with the latest advances in these technologies and their future prospects in simple language and for all audiences. The podcast is a biweekly […]
#podcast #T1E5 There’s a lot of talk lately about fake news. Fake news, also known as hoaxes, is one of the biggest problems facing the information society. The ability to spread and the reach they have has multiplied the potential to misinform, especially if they are specifically designed to do so. In this episode we […]
We had the opportunity to interview Dr. Marco Pedersoli after his presentation in our DaSCI’s seminars. The title of his talk was “Efficient Deep Learning” where he introduced the most common families of approaches used to reduce the requirements of DL methods in terms of memory and computation for both training and deployment, and show […]
#podcast #T1E4 The application of data science and artificial intelligence to other fields is generating scientific breakthroughs never seen before. And perhaps one of the most striking cases is that of bioinformatics. Bioinformatics applies statistical and computational techniques to analyze biological data, such as DNA. In this episode we see how bioinformatics is able to […]
#podcast #T1E3 Maybe the other day you were talking to a friend about pharmacies, and from that moment on you only get ads for pregnancy tests. Or you received a confirmation of your sushi order by email, and now your facebook is full of take-out food ads. Don’t worry, there is no person following you […]
#podcast #T1E2 In this episode we talk about Generative Neural Networks. For those who don’t know very well what this is about, Neural Networks are a kind of program that is able to learn to perform tasks automatically, just by seeing thousands of examples. In other words, we “train” them, exposing them to example after […]
#podcast #T1E0 Imagine for a moment that you wake up in the morning. Maybe your smart wristband decided it was the right time by analyzing your biomedical signals. Or maybe it’s your lifelong alarm clock. You wake up and look at the weather forecast on your phone. You have 20 notifications. You’ll look at them […]
#podcast #T1E1 In this episode we discuss controversial topics, such as the recent publication by leading researchers at the Andalusian Institute of Data Science and Computational Intelligence (DaSCI) of a book on the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Sustainable Development Goals proposed by the UN, and particularly, how they affect SDG 5 Gender Equality. […]
On the occasion of the recent presentation of the National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence (ENIA) by the President of the Government, the DaSCI Institute has organized a webinar on Friday 18 December in which Laura Flores, General Deputy Director of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Enabling Technologies, will present the objectives and measures of the ENIA […]
#conference Francisco Herrera talks in the keynote event about “Big Data and AI in Health: the Power of Data” The Health Research Institute of Aragon (IIS Aragon) in collaboration with the Andalusian Inter-University Institute of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, the Rioja Health Foundation, the Cantabrian Health Service, the Health Research Institute of Navarre, the […]
Artificial Intelligence and the rapid development of technologies could become an asset to make our world more fair and equitable. However, they can also become a threat in issues such as security, privacy, dependence, etc. These technologies have implications in all areas of human activity and it must be us, together with governments and companies, […]
Next week will take place the ENHAnCE TRAINING WEEK, a training activity organized in the framework of the European Project ENHAnCE, coordinated by the DaSCI Institute. It is an on-line event that starts on Monday 26th and that will focus on offering an “Introduction to Research Practice” until Friday 30th. The participants will be able […]
The University of Granada has organised an exhibition about Artificial Intelligence. A virtual and physical place, in the “Palacio de la Madraza”, that invites us to know more about Artificial Intelligence and some achievements and ongoing projects developed by the UGR. The institute’s researchers are very present on it through videos of their works on […]
The Andalusian Forum South Tech Week is currently being held in Granada. This forum is a perfect place to find entrepreneurial opportunities, to meet and exchange success stories and the most innovative ideas. Artificial Intelligence is the theme of this edition. DaSCI will be represented by different researchers who will participate very actively. Francisco Herrera […]
Iván Palomares (UGR) and Macarena Espinilla (UJA) have been lectures in the virtual course on “Data Science and Machine Learning with Applications” included in the UNIA Summer courses. 25 students have registered in this course and they have been able to follow the classes in a synchronous and asynchronous way. The result of the course […]
#UGRencasa #conference Francisco Herrera, gives the conference “How can artificial intelligence help in the pandemic and to face the future? This cultural activity is part of the virtual conference cycle “After Covid-19, what?” organized by La Madraza. La Madraza, the Centre of Contemporary Culture of the University of Granada is the reference centre of the […]
