Artikkel avaldati algselt Novaatoris. Ehkki tehisaru teeb üha rohkem inimeste elu mõjutavaid otsuseid, ei suuda see neid alati inimesele arusaadavalt põhjendada. Tartu Ülikoolis kaitstud doktoritöö osutab, et inimesed ootavad masinalt realistlikke ja usaldusväärselt mõjuvaid seletusi. Tehisaru teeb järjest rohkem otsuseid, mis mõjutavad inimeste elu. Seda kasutatakse haiglates diagnooside toetamisel, pankades laenutaotluste hindamisel ning hariduses õppijate […]

Meelis Kull on Tartu Ülikooli arvutiteaduse instituudi tehisintellekti professor, Eesti tehisintellekti tippkeskuse juht, vast valitud akadeemik ning kolleegide ja tudengite poolt tunnustatud õppejõud. Teda usutlesid tehisintellekti tippkeskuse kommunikatsioonijuht Laura Altin ja andmeteaduse õppetooli juhiabi Kaia Kask. See intervjuu on pisut teistsugune kui tavaliselt. Viisime professor Meelis Kulli põgenemistuppa – temale oli see esimene selline käik. Väljapääs […]

Tartu Ülikooli arvutiteaduse instituudi doktorant Mari-Liis Allikivi ja lektor Ardi Tampuu alustavad uue õppeainega „Tehisintellekti rakendamise projekt“, kus nad õpetavad üliõpilasi kasutama tehisaru päriselu probleemide lahendamiseks. Mida see uus projektipõhine aine üliõpilastele annab ja kas see võiks huvi pakkuda ka ettevõtetele, uuris andmeteaduse õppetooli juhataja professor Jaak Vilo. Avate peagi täiesti uue õppeaine – seda ei […]

The 25th International Conference on Product-Focused Software Process Improvement (PROFES) took place in Tartu from December 2–4, 2024. The conference brought more than 50 internationally renowned researchers and industry practitioners to Tartu, for interesting talks and discussions. Most participants came from Europe, mainly from Austria, Finland, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Sweden, but there were also participants from […]

Introduction: Privacy-preserving computation is a crucial discipline that protects the privacy of confidential data while facilitating secure analysis. In graph problems, secure multiparty computation (SMC) presents a promising approach to performing these functionalities. This article delves into the notable advancements in privacy-preserving parallel algorithms recently introduced in a Ph.D. thesis. By integrating graph algorithms with […]

Jaak Vilo, professor, andmeteaduse magistriõppekava programmijuht Kahe aastaga jõudsid sisseastumisest lõpetamiseni kakskümmend kaheksa Eesti esimese andmeteaduse õppekava vilistlast, kes panustavad nüüd professionaalsete andmeteadlastena eri valdkondade andmete analüüsile ja tehisintellekti arendusele. Tartu Ülikool käivitas andmeteaduse magistrikava koostöös Majandus- ja kommunikatsiooniministeeriumiga (MKM), et leevendada ettevõtete ja riigisektori põuda vastava oskusteabega professionaalide järele.  Kuna Eestis on andmeteadlaste põud, […]

Jaak Vilo, Kallol Roy Algorithmics (MTAT.03.238) is an obligatory course in the Computer Science MSc curriculum. As such it is intended to remind everyone of the foundations of algorithms and data structures but also to go beyond and teach some more advanced concepts (like succinct data structures, for example).  The course aims at linking different […]

We are living in a world in which data is not just getting bigger; it is also getting more and more interconnected. Large graph analytics is a useful tool for gaining insights from large volumes of interconnected data and has applications in various fields such as social media, biology, and telecommunications. An example of the […]

On the 13th of December Lidia Feklistova defended her PhD thesis on „Learners of an introductory programming MOOC: background variables, engagement patterns and performance” We constantly improve our knowledge and skills to be successful. Participation in massive open online courses (MOOCs) supports ongoing professional development and lifelong learning. Keeping in mind the huge number of participants in […]

More than 2000 participants were involved in cyber defence exercise Locked Shields 2022 that took place from April 19 to 22. This year, one of the venues of the event was the Delta Centre in Tartu. Employees of the HPC Center of the University of Tartu and the Institute of Computer Science participated in the […]

Researchers from the University of Tartu’s Institute of Computer Science are taking part in the EU Horizon project SPATIAL (Security and Privacy Accountable Technology Innovations, Algorithms and Machine Learning), which aims to develop resilient accountable metrics, privacy-preserving methods, verification tools and system solutions that will serve as critical building blocks for trustworthy AI in ICT […]
