INESC TEC coordinated a workshop on Machine Learning

INESC TEC, through the Centre for Telecommunications and Multimedia (CTM), organised the workshop “Machine Learning Applied to Telecommunications and Multimedia”, which took place on April 21 at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP) – part of the EESTech Challenge event.

Guilherme Carvalho, Eduardo Almeida, Rúben Queirós, Luís Vilaça and Tomé Albuquerque were the researchers in charge of presenting a session about the main concepts of Machine Learning, namely Reinforcement Leaning, as well as its application in INESC TEC’s Telecommunications and Multimedia research projects. “The implementation of Machine Learning into Telecommunications and Multimedia allowed to address and solve increasingly complex issues; presenting the main techniques through concrete application cases is crucial to complement the participants’ experience in these areas”, stated the researchers.

The EESTech Challenge is an international competition between teams that has been held for six years; it aims to provide opportunities for students to learn, while allowing them to develop a network of professional contacts, all dedicated to the fields of Electrical Engineering and Computing. The annual initiative includes a series of local rounds in different European cities, until the international final – which, this year, took place in Milan.

Under the theme “Machine Learning Applications”, the round that took place in Porto was organised by FEUP’s Electrical and Computers Engineering Students Association (NEEEC).
