The AI revolution calls for contaminations among disciplines

Project

The Urban Data Project

Every day brings a new wave of data. GPS, smartphones, social networks, traffic sensors, and cameras can provide public and private institutions with invaluable information about a city and its residents, which are dubbed Urban Data.  AI can process Urban Data to shape and enact better policies and nudge residents toward a better quality of life.

The one-year long Urban Data Project takes the shape of a partnership among three Departments of the University of Padua and five private corporations.  Five junior researchers will cooperate with private companies to develop strategies to exploit the vast amount of data in a privacy-compliant way.

Publications

We are looking for physicists, computer scientists or layers interested in working on a 1 year Urban data project. For more info, contact us aisociety.unipd@gmail.com
