AI*IA 2005 : Advances in artificial intelligence ; 9th congress of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence Milan, Italy, September 21-23, 2005, Proceedings
This volume collects the papers selected for presentation at the IX Congress of the Italian Association for Arti?cial Intelligence (AI*IA), 2005 On the one hand this congress continues the tradition of AI*IA in organizing its biannual s- enti?c meeting from 1989; on the other hand, this edition is a landmark in the involvement of the international community of arti?cial intelligence (AI), directly involving a broad number of experts from several countries in the P- gramCommittee. Moreover,the peculiar nature of scienti?c researchin arti?cial intelligence (which is intrinsically international) and several consolidated int- national collaborations in projects and mobility programs allowed the collection and selection of papers from many di?erent countries, all around the world, enlarging the visibility of the Italian contribution within this research ?eld. Arti?cial intelligence is today a growing complex set of conceptual, theor- ical, methodological, and technological frameworks, o?ering innovative com- tational solutions in the design and development of computer-based systems. Within this perspective, researchers working in this area must tackle a broad range of knowledge about methods, results, and solutions coming from di?erent classical areas of this discipline. The congress was designed as a forum allowing researchers to present and discuss specialized results as general contributions to AI growth.

AI home decorator
Presents the development of “DesignMate”, an innovative AI home decorator application designed to revolutionize interior design. With three main features powered by artificial intelligence, DesignMate simplifies and enhances the process of home decoration. The first feature leverages an Autoregressive transformer model trained on the extensive 3Dfront dataset to suggest room decor based on room layouts. The second feature employs Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to enhance the colors of specific room layouts. The third feature introduces an expert system that tailors decor options to user-entered conditions. DesignMate also introduces an integrated e-commerce platform dedicated to furniture, offering users a wide selection of high-quality items that perfectly complement their preferred room designs.

Agroecological transitions : From theory to practice in local participatory design
There is wide agreement on the need to change the prevalent agricultural models, given their negative impacts and their incompatibility with current societal issues. Agroecological transition has been promoted as a potential solution to the ecological, social and economic problems generated by these models. It however involves a systemic, multi-scale and transdisciplinary process. Due to this complexity, the overall picture of what farms and food systems “actually are” and “might be” may not be apparent at the individual level. Yet individuals’ knowledge and values provide complementary insights on how to proceed in deepening ecological modernisation. Expertise can also provide landmarks to be considered in that process. Because local stakeholders’ experience and skills are key resources in the adaptation and adoption of agroecological transition, new conceptual and methodological frameworks and tools have to be developed to support them in the design process of such a complex transition. This book presents feedback from the ‘Territorial Agroecological Transition in Action’- TATA-BOX research project, which was devoted to these specific issues.
Aging, shaking, and cracking of infrastructures : From mechanics to concrete dams and nuclear structures
