Artificial Intelligence and Image Understanding
![](/pag/fileadmin/user_upload/dipartimenti/DAIS/img/848x174/banner_ArtificialIntelligence_848x174.jpg)
The laboratory focuses on artificial intelligence, with particular emphasis on Machine Learning and Deep Learning techniques on geometric and structural data, quantum techniques for learning and characterizing structures (Quantum Machine Learning), Computer Vision and Stereometry.
It also boasts various international collaborations, and scientific and industrial projects, and is characterized by a strong propensity for wide international collaboration and multi-disciplinary research. The research results are applied to such diverse fields as oceanography, civil engineering, neuroimaging, analysis and conservation of cultural heritage, and analysis and characterization of environmental risk.

Awards
Best paper of 2017 for the cathegory geoinformatics in the journal Computes and Geosciences, for the paper:
Bergamasco et al., "WASS: An open-source pipeline for 3D stereo reconstruction of ocean waves."
Case studies
The Laboratory has been collaborating for years with the CNR ISMAR research institute in the field of 3D reconstruction of sea waves from off-shore platforms and ships. Cutting-edge techniques have been developed to efficiently and robustly estimate the space-time wave spectrum, which is essential for studying complex phenomena such as extreme wave statistics.
