Matteo Tiezzi (DIISM, University of Siena) Apr 3, 2019 – 11:00 AM DIISM, Artificial Intelligence laboratory (room 201), Siena SI Description The ability to decompose visual scenes in terms of abstract building blocks is crucial for general intelligence. These basic building blocks are capable to represent meaningful properties, interactions and other relations across scenes. The […]

Feb 20, 2019 – 11:00 AM DIISM, Artificial Intelligence laboratory (room 201), Siena SI Description It is difficult to reconstruct and exhaustively explain the decisions/behaviors of current autonomous or semi-autonomous systems based on Machine Learning techniques. This characteristic is due to the fact that they usually do not […]
