Title: Creative AI: bridging the Semantic Gap Speaker: Marilena Oita (IDSIA) Abstract: This presentation brainstorms on how creativity can be algorithmically forged and eased through Design. A multi-dimensional parallel between semantics and deep learning outlines the complementarity of these AI approaches. Assuming an architecture which eases the communication between the two paradigms, I propose ways in which semantics could solve three fundamental flaws of Deep Learning: narrow focus, opacity and incapacity to build on what we already know.
