On October 23, 2023, the public lecture series “Sustainability in Computer Science” carries on with a new topic.
Nysret Musliu, an Associate Professor in Databases and Artificial Intelligence at TU Wien, will give a talk on “AI and Optimization for Sustainable Applications”.
Abstract
Real-life problems in domains as diverse as health care, supply chain, production and education are frequently very challenging and their solutions impact people involved as well as the resource consumption and efficiency of operations. Optimization and AI provide robust techniques that can be employed to effectively address such problems in a variety of sustainable applications. This lecture gives an overview of various AI and optimization techniques, including problem-solving and machine-learning techniques. Through case studies in scheduling and planning, as well as food waste reduction, we will demonstrate how these techniques can be applied to solve complex problems in sustainable applications.
