Abstract

In this talk, after a streamlined historical introduction to Artificial Intelligence, at first, I will summarize recent advances in our understanding about information processing by modern neural networks in the shallow limit: by using archetypical models for “pattern recognition” and “machine learning”, I will discuss two mathematical approaches that our group developed to tackle this problem, the former -Guerra’s interpolation- more probabilistic in its nature, the latter -PDE techniques- more analytical. Then I will close this talk by showing how the know-how resulting from such theoretical investigations translates into practical computational recipes, useful in applications, with a particular emphasis on problems related to cancerogenesis.
