    Alice 04 - Marija: the machine trainer

    In this fourth episode of AIWL we talk about Artificial Intelligence with Marija Stojchevska, post-doctoral researcher in Computer Science. Marija works on machine learning applied to health care. Her research focuses more precisely on activity recognition: she trains the machine to guess what a person is doing based on data received from a wearable device. This technology has potential applications in many domains, and Marija discusses with us what she likes most and least of it. As well as what her experience has been so far, as a young woman in a STEM field. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Alice 03 - Fien: (re)thinking Science

    Fien De Block is a researcher in Islamic Intellectual History and History of Science. Her PhD research, at the cross-roads between history of science, history of religion, and history of magic, challenges the modern categories applied to these disciplines and their sources. In this episode, Alice invites us to reflect on our very concept of science and how it affects the way we look at science in the past and in the present, in our own culture and outside of it.
