DEI Talks | “Accelerating Implicit Mechanics” por Robert F. Lucas
“Historically, the run time of implicit mechanics has been dominated by the time required to solve a large sparse linear system. The default solver is a multifrontal sparse matrix factorization, which will reliably solve ill conditioned, indefinite problems. The multifrontal method turns a sparse matrix factorization into a directed acyclic graph of smaller, dense “frontal”…

DEI Talks | “The Limitations of Data, Machine Learning & Us” pelo Prof. Ricardo Baeza-Yates
“Machine learning (ML), particularly deep learning, is being used everywhere. However, not always is used well, ethically and scientifically. In this talk we first do a deep dive in the limitations of supervised ML and data, its key component. We cover small data, datification, bias, predictive optimization issues, evaluating success instead of harm, and pseudoscience,…

DEI TALKS | “Temporal mining on systematically sparse medical data” por Myra Spiliopoulou
“The acquisition of features for patient diagnostics, treatment planing and monitoring purposes is costly. Moreover, when patients with chronic diseases are called to used mobile health apps, they are also called to interact with the app in a regular way; the willingness to do so may wane with time. In this talk, we see forms…

DEI TALKS | “Towards Next-Generation Explainable AI” por Wojciech Samek
“The talk will discuss Concept Relevance Propagation (CRP) and Prototypical Concept Explanation (PCX), two next-generation Explainable AI (XAI) methods, which explain individual predictions of an AI model in terms of human understandable concepts and allow to systematically investigate global model behaviors. Furthermore, the talk will present the potential of these novel methods to provide deep…

DEI TALKS | “A Survey of Tasks Derived from or Related to Natural Language Inference” pelo Prof. Martin Víta
“Natural language inference (recognizing textual entailment task in the past) belongs to the most prominent tasks in current NLP, it is a keystone of natural language understanding. NLI can be stated as a classification task whether a given hypothesis can be inferred from a given premise. In this talk, we are going introduce a large…

DEI TALKS | “Architectures for building Extraordinary Software” com Joseph Yoder, Graziela Simone Tonin, Neil Harrison e Filipe Correia
Quando se constroem sistemas complexos, poderá ser demasiado fácil focarmo-nos principalmente nas funcionalidades em detrimento das qualidades do software, especificamente as relacionadas com a arquitetura. A pressão para se adaptar e moldar o mercado exige que as organizações adicionem novas funcionalidades, acomodem novas interações e tenham novas equipas a trabalhar na adaptação do software. Alguns…
