Abstract: Precision Agriculture based on IoT active connections is a rapidly growing research field, where controlled-quality production, water use optimisation, reduced deployment of pesticides and fertilizers are key issues. These technologies support the improvement of food quality while helping agriculture to respect the environment. Electronic Circuits and Systems (CAS) are ideal tools for interfacing the data sources, processing the data, extracting relevant information along the whole food chain (from farmers and the professional stakeholders to the consumers), and contribute to implement eco-friendly, safe, circular and practical solutions. This CAS Distinguished Lecture, provides an overview of electronics for precision agriculture, analyses solutions that can bring relevant innovations, advancing the existing strategies based on remote or indirect measurements, by instead in-place measuring the plant and soil parameters associated with data on environmental conditions. Application scenarios for crop monitoring, water control, information communication and decision support will be presented.
All interested PhD students are encouraged to enroll for free to the Brain-Inspired Computing Workshop 2023, held in Modena on June 8th and 9th 2023.

Following a quick overview of Infineon (a worldwide leader company in the field) the seminar will illustrate a few representative designs (high speed A/D converters, microphone arrays, etc.) and how they contributed to the introduction of innovative breakthrough applications (assisted driving, gesture recognition, etc.). The last part of the seminar will describe the pivotal role and job of a modern electronic designer, who creatively exploits advanced nanoelectronic technologies to deploy innovative solutions beyond the state of the art.
Seminar on Self-designing Data Systems for the AI Era
abstract:
Data systems are everywhere. A data system is a collection of data structures and algorithms working together to achieve complex data processing tasks. For example, with data systems that utilize the correct data structure design for the problem at hand, we can reduce the monthly bill of large-scale data applications on the cloud by hundreds of thousands of dollars. We can accelerate data science tasks by dramatically speeding up the computation of statistics over large amounts of data. We can train drastically more neural networks within a given time budget, improving accuracy. However, knowing the right data system design for any given scenario is a notoriously hard problem; there is a massive space of possible designs, while no single design is perfect across all data, AI models, and hardware contexts. In addition, building a new system may take several years for any given (fixed) design. We will discuss our quest for the first principles of AI system design. We will show that it is possible to reason about this massive design space. This allows us to create a self-designing system that can take drastically different shapes to optimize for the workload, hardware, and available cloud budget using a grammar for systems. These shapes include designs that are discovered automatically and do not (always) exist in the literature or industry, yet they can be more than 10x faster for modern AI and big data applications. We will discuss examples from diverse AI areas, including image storage and classification, neural networks, statistics, and big data systems.

The aim of the course is to introduce students to two important elements of data engineering technology that makes it possible to extract valuable knowledge from “Big Data”, namely distributed data processing using the MapReduce framework, and data analytics of large graphs. In each case, the course will first introduce fundamental theoretical and architectural concepts, and then present technology for using MapReduce and querying large graphs, respectively. For MapReduce, we present examples of algorithms that can be successfully parallelised and thus are able to take advantage of distributed data architectures, and we will suggest practical exercises using the Spark and Hadoop technology stack. Regarding graph analytics, we focus on community detection algorithms as an example, and we will usethe Neo4J graph DBMS along with the Graph Data Science library for practical exercises.
The course will be held online in the ICT class of Microsoft Teams by professor Paolo Missier and Ph.D. Luca Gagliardelli

Care/i Colleghe/i,
Venerdì prossimo molti dei nostri Dottorandi DIEF parteciperanno ad una giornata di brevi presentazioni del proprio lavoro (il D_DAY). Non è solo e neppure principalmente un momento di valutazione del loro operato. E' soprattutto un'occasione per scambi di idee, per condividere con tanti colleghi il piacere di un confronto scientifico, per imparare a comunicare e farsi capire anche da chi non è esattamente della stessa disciplina (abilità richiesta ad un PhD !), per allenarsi esporre e rispondere a domande.
Il network di conoscenze che si formano durante il dottorato ci accompagna per tutta la vita ed è riconosciuto per essere forse l'asset più importante che un dottorato porta con se a lungo termine.
Nella convinzione di fare cosa gradita vi giro la locandina nel cui retro troverete il programma dettagliato delle presentazioni.
Spero quindi che vorrete anche voi partecipare a questa giornata, non solo per la presentazione dei vostri ragazzi, ma anche per ascoltare ciò che gli altri hanno da dire e, perchè no, riflettere di come le idee potrebbero mescolarsi per nuovi e stimolanti progetti futuri.
Nella speranza di vedervi numerosi vi saluto cordialmente.
Sonia Bergamaschi

Dear PHD students,
you are invited to attend the seminar “ Piano Industria 4.0”, organised by the “ Commissione Ingegneria dell’Informazione” - Ordine Ingegneri.
The seminar corresponds to 2 CFD.
Please find enclosed the event poster.
Dear Phd students,
next Monday 29 January we have organized a working day "Why deep learning is so cool". Within the day, we have organised a talk by Prof. Naftali Tishby, Hebrew University of Jerusalem: "Information Theory of Deep Learning".
Abstract of the seminar:I will present a novel comprehensive theory of large scale learning with Deep Neural Networks, based on the correspondence between Deep Learning and the Information Bottlneck framework. The new theory has the following components: (1) rethinking Learning theory; I will prove a new generalization bound, the input-compression bound, which shows that compression of the representation of input variable is far more important for good generalization than the dimension of the network hypothesis class, an ill defined notion for deep learning. (2) I will prove that for large scale Deep Neural Networks the mutual information on the input and the output variables, for the last hidden layer, provide a complete characterization of the sample complexity and accuracy of the network. This makes the information Bottlneck bound for the problem as the optimal trade-off between sample complexity and accuracy with ANY learning algorithm. (3) I will show how Stochastic Gradient Descent, as used in Deep Learning, achieves this optimal bound. In that sense, Deep Learning is a method for solving the Information Bottlneck problem for large scale supervised learning problems. The theory provide a new computational understating of the benefit of the hidden layers, and gives concrete predictions for the structure of the layers of Deep Neural Networks and their design principles. These turn out to depend solely on the joint distribution of the input and output and on the sample size.
This talk is partially supported by the Doctorate School in ICT of UNIMORE (the phd students which need an attentance declaration should send an email to lorenzo.baraldi@unimore.it)

Abstract: MapReduce was introduced by Google in 2004. Thanks to its functional programming abstraction and fault-tolerant distributed framework, MapReduce makes easy to write parallel programs. In 2004 MapReduce was mostly used for web indexing; however nowadays we are seeing different type of applications (relational, graphs or machine learning analytics for example) which does not fit well within the MapReduce paradigm. In this talk I will use some research projects I have been working on in the past years to (1) introduce Apache Spark and Apache REEF; (2) describe how relational, graphs and machine learning applications can be efficiently run at scale using such systems; and (3) illustrate system's pros, cons and design choices.
Venerdì 15 Dicembre 2017, ore 16,30-18,00, nell'Aula P1.6, il dottore di
ricerca Matteo Interlandi, terrà il Seminario: “Quick Develoment Big Data
Analytics Tools"
Abstract: Implementing data processing logic in Data-Intensive Scalable
Computing (DISC) systems is a difficult and time consuming effort. Today’s
DISC systems offer many special purpose programming models and Domain
Specific Languages, but very little tooling for debugging and profiling
programs. As a result, programmers spend countless hours in stitching
together subprograms written using different APIs, and performing trial and
error debugging using log traces as evidences. To aid this effort, in the
last years I have help in building a set of tools allowing developers to
reduce the overall time to market for their Big Data Analytics. In
particular, in this talk I will describe how relational, graphs and machine
learning applications can be efficiently run at scale using the tooling I
contributed to develop."

THE EYE OF THE MACHINE
Abstract:
Gaze and vision are concepts that concern media, philosophy, and cultural studies as well as science and technology.
This talk will be an introduction to the cultural logic of the contemporary look, to the cultural aspects, and to the social implications of the computational eye.
Scientific and humanistic studies show that it is essential for both fields to exchange point of view in order to improve their research instruments.
