Research Opportunities

Artificial Intelligence; Computer Vision

Work description

The training area of the scholarship is Artificial Intelligence, with a focus on studying the adoption of AI techniques based on computer vision by industry. This involves the research and development of approaches that facilitate and/or improve the adoption of this type of technology by industry, in order to make it more self-sufficient in implementing practical solutions. Specifically, the main activities to be carried out by the scholarship holder are:

• Analysing the state of the art of current self-service AI tools, particularly in the field of computer vision, contributing to the creation of knowledge about good practices and existing examples.
• Analysing and specifying requirements for a self-service AI tool for the quality control domain.
• Conducting a survey and characterisation of potential support technologies, enabling informed decisions to be made when developing the tool.
• Collaborate in the development and validation of the developed tool in a real-world scenario.
• Collaborate in the writing of technical-scientific documents and the writing of the activity report.

Academic Qualifications
