The Finnish Center for Artificial Intelligence FCAI and have launched a series of talks to showcase cutting-edge artificial intelligence research and give students a chance to meet and learn from some of the top scientists in the field. The have so far featured Matthew E. Taylor, Borja Balle and Bernhard Schölkopf, who have presented on human and agent cooperative learning, differential privacy, and causal AI, respectively.

ELLIS Unit Helsinki is expanding its activities and faculty, explains FCAI director Samuel Kaski. “A part of this is to bring more top-notch scientists to visit Aalto University and the University of Helsinki and give our students a chance to interact with them,” says Kaski. Students at Aalto can earn credits () by enrolling in the associated course led by Kaski and postdoctoral fellow Sammie Katt. Besides attending the lectures, students will write up summaries, deep dives into selected focused material or ideas for interdisciplinary connections. Students interested in machine learning, data science or artificial intelligence are all welcome, says Katt, adding that the exposure to high-profile speakers and challenging topics can lead to new avenues or future academic directions.

The ELLIS Distinguished Lectures continue on November 1, 2023, with speaker Serge Belongie, professor of computer science at the University of Copenhagen and head of the Pioneer Centre for Artificial Intelligence. The talk will also be streamed—.

Future ELLIS Distinguished Lectures will be posted to the FCAI calendar:
