20810267 - Artificial Intelligence from Engineering to Arts

The educational objective of the present course is to bring the student closer to some applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in the engineering and artistic fields. The course is therefore designed in two parts: the first concerns AI applications to electrical energy and information engineering; the second focuses on the use of ML techniques for musical and artistic production in general. Thus, the student will have the opportunity to learn how AI is a very versatile and performing tool in application fields that are very distant culturally.
