SUMMARY:AI in Visual Art
DESCRIPTION:Dr Aniko Ekart\, Reader in Computer Science\, College of Engineering and Physical Sciences\, Aston University \n\n\n\nThe quest for machines capable of performing creative activities began with the invention of the computer. Producing aesthetically pleasing visual art is certainly one such creative activity. Broadly speaking\, there are two approaches: with and without a human in the loop. While in the first kind\, the aesthetic appreciation is driven by the human\, in the second\, some automatic models of aesthetics are used. In this presentation\, Dr Ekárt explains her team’s blended way: a bit of both for a better chance of success. This journey of AI for visual art will be illustrated with many visual examples\, some of which you might like. \n\n\n\nDr Anikó Ekárt is a reader in Computer Science at Aston University\, where she is also Director of Research Degree Programmes for the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences. After obtaining a PhD from Eötvös Loránd University\, Budapest\, she held research positions at the Computer and Automation Research Institute\, Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Budapest\, and a lectureship in Computer Science at University of Birmingham\, UK. Her research is focussed on theory and application of artificial intelligence techniques\, and in particular genetic programming and evolutionary computation. Areas of application range from health to engineering\, art and economics. She enjoys exploring established and new artificial intelligence methods as well as virtual reality for creating aesthetically pleasing images and experiences.
