Chama-se AI4Lungs e tem como objetivo desenvolver ferramentas e modelos computacionais baseados em Inteligência Artificial para otimizar o diagnóstico e o tratamento de doenças pulmonares. Através de uma abordagem holística e multimodal, os investigadores vão criar uma solução de cuidados de saúde personalizados para doenças respiratórias. No final de fevereiro, representantes das 18 entidades parceiras do projeto, provenientes de 10 países, reuniram-se no INESC TEC para assinalar o arranque do AI4Lungs.

What happens when you ask Large Language Models, e.g., ChatGPT, to take on a certain role in different contexts? Isabel Rio-Torto, a researcher at INESC TEC, joined the Explainable Machine Learning (EML) group at the University of Tuebingen (Germany) for a study that concluded that the personification of models has an impact on performance, but can also show bias. The study was accepted in the 2023 edition of NeurIPS - Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems.

Hélder Oliveira, INESC TEC researcher, is the new chairman of the Portuguese Association for Pattern Recognition (APRP). APRP is a non-profit association whose objective is to promote advances, both theoretical and practical, in the scientific domain of pattern recognition. In this sense, it is responsible for organising numerous conferences, meetings and training courses and disseminating scientific and technical information.
