We invite PhD students, academics and researchers from academia and industry to apply for the 2025 Summer School on AI Technologies for Trust, Interoperability, Autonomy and Resilience in Industry 4.0 (henceforth AI4Industry).
The summer school aims to provide participants with knowledge of state-of-the-art AI technologies and models to address the challenges of the data revolution and the automation of cognitive tasks for the development of a trustworthy and resilient Industry 4.0 (or Industry of the Future). The summer school is organized around concrete industrial problems structured as use cases. These use cases are intended to stimulate the discussion in academic institutions to solve real-world problems and to present innovative solutions to industrial stakeholders.
During the summer school, participants attend lectures of AI technologies and carry out practical exercises dedicated to applying these technologies to solve real-world industrial problems. The summer school addresses various aspects of AI in Industry, with a special focus on:
- Web of Things
- Knowledge Graphs
- Multi-Agent Systems
- Trustworthy and Responsible AI
Half of the summer school is dedicated to introducing the theoretical foundations of state-of-the-art AI technologies and models, while the other half is dedicated to a practical work in the style of a hackathon.
Participants are encouraged to continue working on solving the proposed problems after the summer school with the support of the organizers and to submit their work to workshop and conferences.
The AI4Industry Summer School series website provide more general information of the summer school.
