This area focuses on the study of systems, algorithms and models that enable computers to learn and take decisions based on data without requiring any explicit programming.
A clear example of this approach is deep learning which is currently the basis of a number of industrial and commercial applications in the Artificial Intelligence field.
In the medium to long term, research in this area aims not just to improve existing algorithms in this area, but also to create new algorithms that take into account disruptive developments, such as quantum computing, which represents a paradigm shift, and the need to address particularly complex challenges in fields such as biotechnology and personalised medicine.
