European strategies and regulations on AI
I will survey the initiatives undertaken at the European level since 2018 in order to foster the field of Artificial Intelligence, in particular supporting AI research and innovation through current projects, future calls ...
RISC-V Near-Memory Processing Accelerators
The RISC-V architecture has opened new opportunities for many people to innovate in computer design. However, to design a chip that can compete in the marketplace against veteran industry computer designers with their vast ...
Global non-convex optimisation by polynomial model based optimisation (PMBO) for tumor response models
We address global non-convex optimisation tasks by a novel approach given by modelling the expected improvement acquisition function by a polynomial. In contrast to classic Bayesian optimisation the method allows to follow ...
Building smart and fast systems using machine learning and computer vision
Nowadays, computing platforms use a mix of different hardware technologies, to scale application performance, resource capacities and achieve cost effectiveness. However, this heterogeneity, along with the greater irregularity ...
Beyond-classical computation from a computer science perspective
Outperforming classical supercomputers in a well-defined computational task is an important milestone in the long-term quest for practical quantum computing. I will argue that this milestone has been reached for the task ...
Probabilistic and algebraic models for mutation data
Mutational processes shape the genomes of cancer patients, leaving distinct mutational signatures, and their understanding has important applications in diagnosis and treatment. Current approaches for mutational signature ...
inDust Webinar: Variability in modelled airborne dust mineralogy
Mineral dust composition is relevant for different aspects of the climate system; however, most Earth System Models consider dust as a homogeneous species. This talk will provide an overview of the approaches we can currently ...
inDust Webinar: The mysterious abundance of coarse desert dust in earth’s atmosphere
Aircraft measurements have revealed that coarse dust (diameter > 5 mm) is surprisingly abundant in Earth’s atmosphere. In this seminar, I estimate the global load of coarse dust using a framework that leverages dozens of ...
Prototipos de (re)articulación creativa. Fotografía y dibujo en los procesos de proyecto del ‘EG-Lab’
Los modos de proyección y las técnicas de expresión gráfica condicionan qué se puede pensar y qué se puede ver. Por tanto, es posible explorar las etapas iniciales del ejercicio compendio de la asignatura EG, el ‘Proyecto ...
Determining the magnetic order of Con+ (n ≤ 5) clusters by using multi-configurational calculations
The magnetism of transition metal clusters have been for decades a complicated puzzle, with experimental results disagreeing with calculations performed within the density functional theory formalism. In this talk, I will ...
Multi-omics and artificial intelligence to fight cancer
We now have many modalities to explore the tumor and its environment: many types of omics, imaging, clinical records... One burning question is to convert this heap of data into knowledge useful in clinics. This requires ...
Analysis of huge metabolic models with COBREXA.jl
COBREXA.jl is a new software package to enable the analysis and simulation of large metabolic models. by taking advantages of modern HPC infrastructure. Mainly, it advanced the scalability of constraint-based method, using ...
When rainfall meets hunger in Guatemala
In Guatemala, the prevalence of stunting in children younger than 5 years old reaches 46.5% nationally, with peaks of 90% in the hardest-hit municipalities (WFP, 2020). Food insecurity in the country is driven by both ...
Strengthening global health resilience to climate change
Global heating, extreme climatic events, environmental degradation, and socio-economic inequalities exacerbate the risk of infectious disease emergence, spread and transmission. Mosquito-borne diseases, such as dengue and ...
Dust in Puerto Rico overview
Over 20 million tons of mineral dust from Africa are transported every year by the Trade Winds over the Atlantic Ocean, reaching South and North America, Caribbean Sea nations, and US territories every year. These dust ...
Dust impacts on snow
The lecture will focus on the identification of the different interactions of dust with snow cover. By darkening the snow surface, mineral dust and black carbon deposition enhances snowmelt and triggers numerous feedback. ...
Functional variation in the human genome: lessons from the transcriptome
Detailed characterization of molecular and cellular effects of genetic variants is essential for understanding biological processes that underlie genetic associations to disease. A particularly scalable approach has been ...
Biomedicine, supercomputers and simulations: in silico experiments and its applications in cancer research
Computational simulations of cellular processes (e.g. metabolism, gene expression, signal transduction) are critical tools to formulate mechanistic explanations that facilitate the interpretation of experimental results. ...
