Synesthesia refers to a rare perceptual phenomenon where the stimulation of one sense triggers an experience in another sense. Individuals experiencing synesthesia might perceive colors while listening to music, visualize shapes upon encountering specific scents, or encounter tastes while gazing at words.

Inspired by such co-occurrence of senses, the Synestech.AI project involves the areas of Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. The project aims at exploring single and multimodal Artificial Intelligence approaches and at advancing the frontier of knowledge, fostering the production of both basic and applied research.

Furthermore, the project delves into pertinent applications, encompassing both single and multimodal contexts in speech processing, sentiment analysis, and question answering tasks.
