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 […]

Kaur Alasoo, Associate Professor of Bioinformatics at the Institute of Computer Science, University of Tartu, has combined computer science and molecular biology in his research to find new ways of predicting the effects of genetic variants and to better understand rare diseases. He was interviewed by Professor Jaak Vilo, Head of the Chair of Data […]

He was interviewed by professor Jaak Vilo, Head of the Chair of Data Science. You recently came to Estonia to the […]

Imagine a room with millions of mysterious switches and hundreds of ceiling lamps. You don’t know which switch does what, but you’re curious. As you experiment with different combinations, the lamps’ brightness varies. This scene is a simple metaphor for the complex challenge of genomics research – understanding how different genetic ‘switches’ affect our health. […]

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. […]

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 […]

Kea Kohv, Master Student in Data Science An interactive tool developed by Data Science Master’s student Kea Kohv helps find highly rated and popular data science books sold on Amazon. A query for data science books on Amazon returns thousands of results. That is a lot to skim through. In addition, if searching for highly […]

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, […]
