The Ninth Workshop of the Interdepartmental Center SmartData@PoliTO will be held on September 25 and 26, 2023 in Loano (Savona), at the wonderful Loano 2 Village, Via degli Alpini, 6 – Loano (SV).
This workshop will be a great opportunity to discuss the union of SmartData@PoliTO and AI-H@PoliTO and shape the future of the newborn centre.
We will meet to present and discuss activities carried over in the centre, inviting PhD students to discuss their ongoing work and members to present research activities.
Chairs
Program Chairs: Danilo Giordano, Giuseppe Bruno Averta
Local Chairs: Laura Vaudano, Alessandra Calosso
