Prof. Nicola Gatti of the Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria is one of the four scientific coordinators of the new ELLIS Milanese unit, born from the joint effort of Università Bocconi, Università Statale di Milano, Università di Milano-Biccocca and Politecnico di Milano.
Established in 2018, ELLIS (Eurpean Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems) is the association that brings together Europe's best artificial intelligence scientists and academics with the objective of promoting continent-wide scientific development on this crucial topic, unsurprisingly also considered fundamental by the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) for Italian recovery.
Along with Mayor Giuseppe Sala, the initiative was presented by the Rector of Bocconi University, Gianmario Verona, the Executive Vice Rector of the State University, Maria Pia Abbracchio, the Rector of Bicocca University, Giovanna Iannantuoni, and the Rector of the Politecnico, Ferruccio Resta.
The new ELLIS unit will have the task of establishing Milan as one of Europe's leading scientific centres for AI and machine learning. This research focuses on four areas: interactive machine learning, which examines how an algorithm interacts with the environment; neural networks and deep learning; health and computational biology, which applies AI to medicine; and the use of AI for the analysis and processing of natural language.
