Details
Everybody hears of late about how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being applied with great success to many business problems, and how it can now perform many tasks better than humans. The technology behind these stories is very often Machine Learning (ML), a branch of AI that deals with computers being able to learn to make predictions or take decisions based on vast amounts of raw data. The success of Machine Learning in tasks that computers had performed very poorly in the past, like speech recognition, automatic translation, and image or handwriting recognition appears to be effortless to a point of seeming magical. Professionals able to apply these techniques are in great demand across many industries, earning very high salaries. The talk will review a number of the technologies involved in Machine Learning, to show the basic intuitions that underlie them, and present examples of how they are applied.
BIO Pablo Gervás
Pablo Gervás received his PhD from the Imperial College of Science and Technology in London, and he has been working as a research in AI for more than twenty years. He was for many years Director of the Instituto de Tecnología del Conocimiento (Knowledge Technology Insititute) at Universidad Complutense de Madrid. He has participated in several research projects on Computational Creativity funded by the European Commission, exploring the use of AI in constructing computer generated narrative and poetry. Results from his research were applied in the creation of the first computer generated musical, "Beyond The Fence", which played in the London West End in 2016. He is Associate Professor at Universidad Complutense de Madrid and lectures at Instituto de Empresa in Madrid.
