Charlas del Profesor Luis Miralles, de la Universidad Técnica de Dublín

El profesor Luis Miralles, de la Universidad Técnica de Dublín, estará la semana que viene, del 25 de octubre, en una visita gracias a una beca del programa TALENTO 2021 de la UMU, que financia ayudas para la realización de estancias breves de investigadores procedentes de universidades o centros de investigación extranjeros en la UMU.

Se han organizado dos charlas en el Salón de Grados de la Facultad:

•  La primera será el miércoles 27 a las 16:00 hrs, y tiene por título "What to do after obtaining a degree in Computer Science? Industry, Ph.D. studies, academy, and more", y está orientada a alumnos de la FIUM (especialmente los de Grado).
• La segunda será el viernes 29 a las 12:30 hrs, y tiene por título "Reinforcement Learning for managing COVID-19 Pandemics", y está enmarcada en el Máster de Nuevas Tecnologías de la Informática, principalmente destinada a los alumnos del grado y máster así como a profesores de la facultad con interés en esta temática de la IA.
