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 […]

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 […]

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, 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 […]

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 […]

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, […]

Kaur Alasoo on Tartu Ülikooli arvutiteaduse instituudi bioinformaatika lektor. Tema artikkel ilmus Õhtulehes 22. mail 2022. Tegu on eesti noorte teaduste akadeemia algatatud artiklisarjaga “ElemENTAarne”, kus noorteadlased kirjutavad põnevatest teadustulemustest ja näitavad, kuidas teadus meie elu rikastab. Miks on nii, et teadlased suutsid vähem kui aastaga välja arendada mitu konkureerivat koroonaviiruse vastast vaktsiini, aga meil […]
