Title:
Evaluating the Performance of Shallow, Ensemble and Deep Machine Learning Models to Determine the Planet’s Boundary Layer Height.
Abstract:
The planet's boundary layer height is important for understanding weather, cloud formation and the movement of pollutants and
energy near the Earth's surface. This multi-disciplinary study explores how AI improves our ability to correctly model the planet's boundary layer height.
A holistic approach requires the comparison of different machine learning models in predicting the boundary layer height with feature sets including temperature, energy,
and meteorological measurements captured at the surface level. AI model performance is compared with radiosonde measurements and existing weather prediction data from the ERA‐5
dataset at two locations in Central Amazon. Experiments demonstrate the ability to accurately predict using between 5 and 7 ground‐based measurements.
This is significant as it suggests we could monitor boundary layer height over wider areas using simple, low‐cost sensors combined with short‐term measurement
campaigns to obtain measurements of the PBL height for model training. This is further evidence of the successful application of AI to other forms of scientific research.

Title:
Probabilistic Methods in Reinforcement Learning: From Theory to Real-World Impact.
Abstract:
Reinforcement learning (RL) empowers agents to optimize decisions in dynamic
environments, but noise, partial observability, and shifting dynamics require robust uncertainty handling.
Probabilistic methods offer a powerful framework to address these issues, including Bayesian inference,
Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes, and uncertainty-aware exploration. This talk explores how
probabilistic RL enables safe, efficient, and trustworthy AI systems. We highlight the cutting-edge trends,
such as scalable uncertainty quantification via conformal prediction, probabilistic dynamics models using normalizing flows,
and multimodal RL for robotics, healthcare, and autonomous systems. We illustrate enhanced exploration, safety, and decision-making under uncertainty
through real-world case studies. We address challenges, including computational scalability and fairness in decision-making, and outline future directions
for integrating probabilistic RL into next-generation AI. Discover how embracing uncertainty drives smarter, more robust RL systems for a complex world.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) research has broad applications in real-world problems. Examples include control, planning and scheduling, pattern recognition, knowledge mining, software applications, strategy games and others. The ever-evolving needs in society and business both on a local and on a global scale demand better technologies for solving more and more complex problems. Such needs can be found in all industrial sectors and in any part of the world.
The Multi-disciplinary International Conference on Artificial Intelligence (MIWAI), formerly called The Multi-disciplinary International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence, is a well-established scientific venue in the field of artificial Intelligence. MIWAI was established more than 17 years ago. This conference aims to be a meeting place where excellence in AI research meets the needs for solving dynamic and complex problems in the real world. The academic researchers, developers, and industrial practitioners will have extensive opportunities to present their original work, technological advances and practical problems. Participants can learn from each other and exchange their experiences in order to fine-tune their activities in order to help each other better. The main purposes of the MIWAI series of conferences are:
Artificial intelligence is a broad area of research. We encourage researchers to submit papers in the following areas but not limited to:

This tutorial introduces the audience to the application of Generative AI (GenAI) for processing multimedia documents in small and medium-sized healthcare facilities. The presenters, including healthcare providers and GenAI researchers, will demonstrate how GenAI can manage information efficiently.
In developing countries like India, many clinics face challenges due to limited IT infrastructure, relying on handwritten or printed prescriptions and discharge sheets. The absence of structured databases complicates healthcare management. Additionally, radiologists and diagnostic professionals often dictate their findings, which are transcribed by secretaries. Training and maintaining qualified staff is another challenge for these clinics.
Generative AI offers a promising solution by digitizing handwritten, printed, and voice data from physicians, which can then be stored in a structured data warehouse. Our initiative involves collecting over a hundred voice and paper documents to build a comprehensive database that can be queried using natural language. This approach aims to streamline data management in clinics, enhancing the overall efficiency and accuracy of healthcare delivery.
The tutorial will depict various scenarios in SME healthcare facilities and present corresponding multimedia documents. We will demonstrate how different GenAI technologies can effectively process these documents. While the solutions described will increase the efficiency of information processing in healthcare facilities, there are challenges that make full automation difficult. We will identify these challenges in the multimedia documents, opening up new directions for further research.
This tutorial offers an in-depth exploration of modern text analytics methodologies using Python, designed specifically for researchers, postgraduate students, and beginners engaged in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and text mining research. Participants will develop a solid conceptual and practical foundation in extracting, processing, and analyzing unstructured textual data.
