Alexa Kodde Project Manager at CLAIRE AI is the primary driver of scientific discoveries, industrial engineering, energy production, logistics, the creative economy, education, and public services. The vision for “AI Made in Europe” is more important than ever. But are we sure the vision has not become “AI Made Elsewhere”? Keywords: AI; moonshot; sovereignty Scientific […]

Carolin Benjamins PhD at Leibniz University Hannover Our goal is to progress on Dynamic Algorithm Configuration (DAC) for Bayesian Optimization (BO). BO is a widely-used and sample-efficient framework for optimizing black-box problems, which are often expensive to evaluate. Dynamically configuring BO enables to adapt to the optimization progress and to any problem landscape without prior

Sergio Muñoz Assistant Professor at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid The vast and ever-expanding digital landscape presents significant challenges for users striving to navigate and discern accurate information. This challenge is compounded by the dynamic nature of the Internet, characterized by attention-seeking strategies intended to exploit users’ unconscious emotional responses. This affects the credibility of information

Róbert Belanec PhD at Kempelen Institute of Intelligent Technologies The trustworthiness of the generative AI models is an important topic, especially with the increase in popularity of generative large language models. In recent years, the transformer architecture has become popular in the field of natural language processing. However, the increase in parameters is reducing the

Kamil Kmita Research Assistant at Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences Semi-Supervised Fuzzy C-Means (SSFCMeans) model adapts an unsupervised fuzzy clustering algorithm to handle partial supervision in the form of categorical labels. One of the key challenges is to appropriately handle the impact of partial supervision (IPS) on the outcomes of the model. SSFCMeans

Andrea Passerini Associate professor at University of Trento In the past, machine learning and decision-making have been treated as independent research areas. However, with the increasing emphasis on human-centered AI, there has been a growing interest in combining these two areas. Researchers have explored approaches that aim to complement human decision-making rather than replace it,

AI for People International nonprofit organization The International Conference “AI for People” was born out of the idea of shaping Artificial Intelligence technology around human and societal needs. While Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be a beneficial tool, its development and its deployment impact society and the environment in ways that need to be thoroughly addressed

Taku Yamagata Senior Research Associate at the University of Bristol Abstract One of the promising approaches to improve the robustness and safety of reinforcement learning (RL) is collecting human feedback and, that way, incorporating prior knowledge of the target environment. However, human feedback can be inconsistent and infrequent. In this proposed research visit, we explore

Wout Schellaert PhD student at Universitat Politècnica de València Abstract Rapid advances in artificial intelligence have resulted in a correspondingly growing prominence of AI-based tools in day to day biomedicine workflows. As a high-risk domain with impact on human health, it is of vital importance that any AI systems in use are reliable, safe, and

Vincenzo Lo Monaco Assistant Professor and ContinualAI President Abstract Organized by the non-profit research organization ContinualAI, the conference aims at speeding-up the long desired inclusive and sustainable progress of our community with an open-access, multi-timezone, 24 hours long event which brings together ideas at the intersection of machine learning, computational neuroscience, robotics and more!
