报告摘要：In recent years, there has been an exponential growth in researchers’ use of the term “Data Science” to describe the interdisciplinary field of collecting, drawing inference from, and acting on data. We are facing an evolution in the way traditional Business Intelligence (BI) operations are conducted, bringing it closer to Data Science. In applying innovative techniques to old problems, however, we must be careful to distinguish between those that are advances in Machine and Deep Learning (ML and DL) research and concrete results. DL offers the possibility to automate processes, even sophisticated ones, without having to program a computer explicitly but letting the rules and structures emerge from the available data. First, the amount of data must be sufficient to support the algorithms and distinguish the value signal from the background noise.  However, there are many possible models and approaches to accomplish this task. The choice of the most suitable models depends crucially on the type of problem and data available, and the world of research (state of the art) offers some preliminary indications in this regard.

In this talk, we firstly discuss the application of ML techniques on IoT data collected in a Cultural Heritage framework. Behavioural data have been gathered in a non-invasive way to achieve a classification that can be exploited by cultural stakeholders in terms of medium-long term strategy and also in terms of strictly operational decisions. Then we discuss the role of Deep Learning in Medicine, also focusing on challenges and future directions. Finally, we will point out the attention on the role of Artificial Intelligence in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, presenting an overview and the application of AI in the different phases of the pandemic.
