How to ensure the authenticity of satellite imagery
Synthetic images are visual representations artificially generated by algorithms and computational techniques, rather than being captured directly from reality with cameras or sensors. They are produced from different methods, among which the antagonistic generative networks (Generative Adversarial…
Federated machine learning: generating value from shared data while maintaining privacy
Data is a fundamental resource for improving our quality of life because it enables better decision-making processes to create personalised products and services, both in the public and private sectors. In contexts such as health, mobility, energy or education, the use of data facilitates more effic…
How do you build an artificial intelligence model?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept and has become a key tool in our daily lives. From movie or series recommendations on streaming platforms to virtual assistants like Alexa or Google Assistant on our devices, AI is everywhere. But how do you build an AI model? Despite wh…
Open source auto machine learning tools
The increasing complexity of machine learning models and the need to optimise their performance has been driving the development of AutoML (Automated Machine Learning) for years. This discipline seeks to automate key tasks in the model development lifecycle, such as algorithm selection, data process…
A common language to enable interoperability between open dataset catalogs
Open data plays a relevant role in technological development for many reasons. For example, it is a fundamental component in informed decision making, in process evaluation or even in driving technological innovation. Provided they are of the highest quality, up-to-date and ethically sound, data can…
How to prepare a dataset for machine learning and análisis
In the process of analysing data and training machine learning models, it is essential to have an adequate dataset. Therefore, the questions arise: how should you prepare your datasets for machine learning and analytics, and how can you be confident that the data will lead to robust conclusions and…
Hot OSM: Collaborative mapping to coordinate emergency response
The humanitarian crisis following the earthquake in Haiti in 2010 was the starting point for a voluntary initiative to create maps to identify the level of damage and vulnerability by areas, and thus to coordinate emergency teams. Since then, the collaborative mapping project known as Hot OSM (OpenS…
Initiatives for training machine learning models with open data
Behind a voice-enabled virtual assistant, a movie recommendation on a streaming platform, or the development of some COVID-19 vaccines, there are machine learning models. This branch of artificial intelligence enables systems to learn and improve their performance.
Machine learning (ML) is one of th…
MAMD Methodology: The Alarcos Model of Data Improvement
There is such a close relationship between data management, data quality management and data governance that the terms are often used interchangeably or confused. However, there are important nuances.
The overall objective of data management is to ensure that data meets the business requirements tha…
Spain, one of countries that is an open data trendsetter
Like every other year, the EU Open Data Portal has just published the results of its report Open Data Maturity 2022. It is a study that assesses the maturity of European countries in the field of open data and it provides an overview of the good practices followed in Eu…
