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 […]

Sulev Reisberg töötab Tartu Ülikooli arvutiteaduse instituudis selle nimel, et selgitada välja, milline on Eesti rahva tervis ja kuidas seda tõhusamalt ravida. Arvutid ja programmeerimine huvitasid mind juba lapsest saati. Lõin arvutimänge ja veebilehti ning seetõttu tundus loomulik samm minna ülikooli IT-d õppima. Pärast Tallinna Tehnikaülikoolis omandatud magistrikraadi olin aga kindel, et teadus pole minu […]

Maarja tegutseb arvutiteaduse instituudis terviseinformaatika nooremteadurina ja loob oma teadustöös võimalusi terviseandmete visualiseerimiseks ja andmestike võrdlemiseks visuaalsete vahenditega. Teda usutles andmeteaduse õppetooli juhataja professor Jaak Vilo. (Foto: Marja-Liisa Plats) Oled hiljuti saanud palju tähelepanu oma teadustulemuste populariseerimisel. Räägi oma doktoritööst veidi lähemalt. Töötan terviseinformaatika uurimisgrupis, kus meie eesmärk on koostöös meditsiiniekspertidega parandada Eesti inimeste tervist […]

As IoT systems become increasingly integrated into various sectors, the complexity of managing security risks escalates. Recognising this challenge, the IoT Architecture-based Security Risk Management (IoTA-SRM) framework has been introduced, […]

Protests and conflicts have become influential forces for bringing about change and shaping the political and social landscapes not only on a local demographic level but also on a global scale. In the modern Internet and online social media era, protests have increasingly utilized digital platforms to facilitate discussions, coordinate actions, and spread respective agendas. […]

You can find out more about Kristiina Rahkema’s PhD thesis in English here.  Nutitelefonidest on saanud meie elu lahutamatu osa. Iga asja jaoks on olemas äpp: sõnumite saatmiseks, internetipanga külastuseks, auto lukust avamiseks. Kahjuks on paljud neist rakendustest ebaturvalised. Turvavigu on avastatud sellistes rakendustes nagu Facebook, TikTok ja WhatsApp. Nende turvavigade raskusaste võib ulatuda andmelekkest […]

With the development of Online Social Media (OSM) platforms like Twitter and Facebook, the way individuals connect and exchange information has changed dramatically. These platforms have, however, also led to the problem of misinformation, which can quickly spread on a global scale, and once it has been disseminated, it can be hard to stop. It […]

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 […]

Kadi Tulver, arvutiteaduse instituudi kognitiivteaduse ja masinnägemise teadur Lugu sellest, kuidas Isaac Newton õunapuu all istudes murrangulise gravitatsiooniteooria peale tuli, on kõigile tuttav. Isegi kui mõned värvikad detailid on ilukirjanduslikult liialdatud, ilmestab see episood suurepäraselt ühte inimmõistusele unikaalset omadust – kuidas uudsed ideed mõnikord meile justkui tühja koha pealt pähe hüppavad. Püüdlustes luua tehisintellekti, mis […]

Data privacy has become trending, and nowadays, people are talking more and more about it. With process mining, privacy becomes more relevant. Because process mining makes it easier to expose the actual business reality. With automatic process discovery, we can reverse engineer the activities that have been performed within the organization and the hand-offs between […]

On the 9th of December Jakob Mass defended his PhD thesis on „Process management for Internet of mobile things“. The Internet of Things (IoT) promotes solutions such as a smart city, where everyday objects connect with info systems and each other. One example is a road condition monitoring system, where connected vehicles, such as buses, […]
