On 23 December, Veronika Plotnikova defended her PhD thesis on “FIN-DM: A Data Mining Process for the Financial Services”, which investigated standard data mining frameworks, their usage across different industries and associated gaps. Based on the results, the new process model FIN-DM was developed to support practitioners to conduct data mining in the financial services. […]

By Dmytro Fishman, Junior Lecturer of Data Science The human organism is a profoundly complex mechanism, consisting of trillions of cells, each powered by about 42 million protein molecules that interact with one another in a gazillion of ways. Recently, scientists developed technologies (i.e. high-throughput screening) that enable us to listen and record data from […]

Estonia does not have many natural minerals or a significant population like many wealthy countries, but it has the most unicorns per capita globally. As most unicorns use technology to offer solutions for solving problems, we need more IT practitioners who can use computation power to solve various algorithmic issues.  “Thinking computationally is not anymore […]

Our faculty member, Stefania Tomasiello, lecturer of Artificial Intelligence, recently joined IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems (IEEE TNNLS) as associate editor. IEEE TNNLS publishes articles that deal with the theory, design, and applications of neural networks and related learning systems. It is a premier journal in the field of Neural Networks and […]

By Dima Fishman Machine learning is a study of computer algorithms capable of automatically learning ways to solve difficult problems from the existing data without being explicitly programmed. Over time machine learning methods have substantially contributed to human progress across many areas. Machine learning has been taught for many years in the Institute of Computer […]
