-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CFP: Workshop on Interfaces and Human Decision Making for Recommender Systems Datum: Mon, 7 Jul 2014 14:52:45 +0000 Von: Tintarev, N <n.tintarev(a)abdn.ac.uk> Antwort an: Tintarev, N <n.tintarev(a)abdn.ac.uk> ================================================================= Call for papers: Joint Workshop on Interfaces and Human Decision Making for Recommender Systems IntRS’14: http://recex.ist.tugraz.at/intrs2014/ Held in conjunction with the ACM Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys 2014) 6-10th October 2014, Silicon Valley, California. Submission deadline: *21st of July, 2014 (in 2 weeks)* Submit here: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=intrs2014 ================================================================= As an interactive intelligent system, recommender systems are developed to suggest items that match users’ preferences. Since the emergence of recommender systems, a large majority of research has focused on objective accuracy criteria and less attention has been paid to how users interact with the system and the efficacy of interface designs from users’ perspectives. The field has reached a point where it ready to look beyond algorithms, into users’ interactions, decision making processes and overall experience. This workshop focuses on integrating different theories of human decision making into the construction of recommender systems. This year it will focus particularly on the impact of interfaces on decision support and overall satisfaction. The aim is to bring together researchers and practitioners around the topics of designing and evaluating novel intelligent interfaces for recommender systems in order to: (1) share research and techniques, including new design technologies and evaluation methodologies (2) identify next key challenges in the area, and (3) identify emerging topics. This workshop aims at creating an interdisciplinary community with a focus on the interface design issues for recommender systems and promoting collaboration opportunities between researchers and practitioners. We particularly encourage demos and mock-ups of systems to be used as a basis of a lively and interactive discussion in the workshop. ================================================================= Topics of interests include, but are not limited to: ================================================================= User Interfaces * Visual interfaces for recommender systems * Explanation interfaces for recommender systems. * Collaborative multi-user interfaces (e.g., group decision making in e-tourism) * Spoken and natural language interfaces * Trust-aware interfaces * Social interfaces * Context-aware interfaces * Ubiquitous and mobile interfaces * Conversational interfaces * Example- and demonstration-based interfaces * New approaches to designing interfaces for recommender systems * User interfaces for decision making (e.g., decision strategies and user ratings) Interaction, user modeling and decision-making * Cognitive Modeling for recommender systems * Human-recommender interaction * Controllability, transparency and scrutability * Decision theories in recommender systems (e.g., priming, framing, and decoy effects) * Preference detection (e.g., eye tracking for automated preference detection) * The role of emotions in recommender systems (e.g., emotion-aware recommendation) * Trust inspiring recommendation (e.g., explanation-aware recommendation) * Argumentation and Persuasive recommendation (e.g., argumentation-aware recommendation) * Cultural differences (e.g., culture-aware recommendation) * Mechanisms for effective group decision making (e.g., group recommendation heuristics) * Decision theories for effective group decision making (e.g., hidden profile management) * Detection and avoidance of decision biases (e.g., in item presentations) Evaluation * Case studies * Empirical studies and evaluations of new interfaces * Empirical studies and evaluations of new interaction designs * Evaluation methods and metrics (e.g., evaluation questionnaire design) ================================================================= Submissions ================================================================= We invite two kinds of submissions which address novel interface issues in recommender systems: • Short papers. The maximum length is 4 pages in the standard ACM SIG proceedings. • Long papers. The maximum length is 8 pages in the standard ACM SIG proceedings format. Submitted papers will be evaluated according to their originality, technical content, style, clarity, and relevance to the workshop. Additional weight will be given to papers that include alternative modes of presentation such as demos, playing out of scenarios, mockups, and alternate media such as video. The workshop will include an interactive demo session, where we look forward to seeing and discussing innovative interface designs. Each paper will be reviewed by at least 3 independent referees. Accepted papers will published in workshop proceedings on the CEUR-WS.org site. Further, we will approach several journals such as ACM TiiS and TIST to organize a special issue on this topic, selecting the most qualified papers for journal publications. Note that at least one author of each accepted paper needs to register and attend the workshop. ====================== Program committee ====================== Anthony Jameson, DFKI, Germany Robin Burke, DePaul University, USA Shlomo Berkovsky, NICTA, Australia Li Chen, Hong Kong Baptist University Jaegul Choo, Georgia Tech, USA Jill Freyne, CSIRO, Australia Gerhard Friedrich, Alpen-Adria-Universitaet Klagenfurt Franca Garzotto, Politecnico di Milano, Italy Marco de Gemmis, Dipartimento di Informatica, University of Bari Cleotilde Gonzalez, Carnegie Mellon University, USA Sergiu Gordea, AIT, Austria Tobias Hollerer, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA Dietmar Jannach, TU Dortmund, Germany Henry Lieberman, MIT Media Lab, USA Bart Knijnenburg, University of California, Irvine, USA Joseph Konstan, University of Minnesota, USA Gerald Ninaus, Graz University of Technology, Austria Denis Parra, PUC, Chile Francesco Ricci, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy Olga Santos, aDeNu, Spain Christin Seifert, Universitet Passau, Germany Martijn Willemsen, Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands Julita Vassileva, University of Saskatchewan Jesse Vig, Palo Alto Research Center Markus Zanker, Alpen-Adria-Universitaet Klagenfurt ====================== Organizers ====================== Nava Tintarev - n.tintarev(a)abdn.ac.uk Dept. of Computer Science, University Of Aberdeen, UK John O’Donovan - jod(a)cs.ucsb.edu Dept. of Computer Science, University of California, Santa Barbara Peter Brusilovsky - peterb(a)pitt.edu School of Information Sciences, University of Pittsburgh Alexander Felfernig - alexander.felfernig(a)ist.tugraz.at Institute for Software Technology, Graz University of Technology, Austria Giovanni Semeraro - giovanni.semeraro(a)uniba.it Dept. of Computer Science, University of Bari “Aldo Moro”, Italy Pasquale Lops - pasquale.lops(a)uniba.it Dept. of Computer Science, University of Bari “Aldo Moro”, Italy The University of Aberdeen is a charity registered in Scotland, No SC013683.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] New Issue Applied Ontology published Datum: Sun, 06 Jul 2014 15:22:40 +0200 Von: roberta.ferrario(a)cnr.it An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org New Issue Applied Ontology published We are happy to announce the publication of Volume 9, Issue 1 (2014) of Applied Ontology. The issue contains the following papers: Engineering ontologies for question answering Marten Teitsma, Jacobijn Sandberg, Guus Schreiber, Bob Wielinga and Willem Robert van Hage DOI 10.3233/AO-140130 Abstract: Using an ontology to automatically generate questions for ordinary people requires a structure and concepts compliant with human thought. Here we present methods to develop a pragmatic, expert-based and a basic-level ontology and a framework to evaluate these ontologies. Comparing these ontologies shows that expert-based ontologies are most easy to construct, but lack required cognitive semantic characteristics. Basic-level ontologies have structure and concepts which are better in terms of cognitive semantics but are most expensive to construct. An ontology co-design method for the co-creation of a continuous care ontology Femke Ongenae, Pieter Duysburgh, Nicky Sulmon, Mathijs Verstraete, Lizzy Bleumers, Saar De Zutter, Stijn Verstichel, Ann Ackaert, An Jacobs and Filip De Turck DOI 10.3233/AO-140131 Abstract: Ontology engineering methodologies tend to emphasize the role of the knowledge engineer or require a very active role of domain experts. In this paper, a participatory ontology engineering method is described that holds the middle ground between these two ?extremes?. After thorough ethnographic research, an interdisciplinary group of domain experts closely interacted with ontology engineers and social scientists in a series of workshops. Once a preliminary ontology was developed, a dynamic care request system was built using the ontology. Additional workshops were organized involving a broader group of domain experts to ensure the applicability of the ontology across continuous care settings. The proposed method successfully actively engaged domain experts in constructing the ontology, without overburdening them. Its applicability is illustrated by presenting the co-created continuous care ontology. The lessons learned during the design and execution of the approach are also presented. Measuring concept similarity in ontologies using weighted concept paths Delia Rusu, Bla? Fortuna and Dunja Mladeni? DOI 10.3233/AO-140132 Abstract: Semantic similarity and relatedness between concepts have been extensively studied in different areas ranging from psychology to computational linguistics. In this paper we address the problem of determining the similarity between concepts defined in a knowledge source such as an ontology. The focus is measuring similarity between concepts from the same ontology. We propose a concept similarity algorithm based on geometric models for representing concepts and relationships, which can be applied to different types of ontologies. The key idea is the concept weighting scheme which allows for quantifying the degree of abstractness of concepts. The evaluation settings involving two ontologies validate and highlight the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed approach. Using the proposed measure, which closely resembles the human judgment of similarity, we can reliably recreate predefined concept clusters, and generate more informative concept paths. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Call for Papers: IET Special Issue on Advanced Applications and Services on Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Software Defined Sensor Networks (SDSN) Datum: Sat, 5 Jul 2014 18:57:32 +0200 Von: Leonardo Valdivieso <angevald(a)ucm.es> An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** IET Wireless Sensor Systems OPEN ACCESS PUBLISHING NOW AVAILABLE Special Issue: Advanced Applications and Services on Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Software Defined Sensor Networks (SDSN) Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a novel paradigm that is changing the way we think of networks and communications. The basic idea of SDN is the separation between data and control plane in network devices and the centralized control of the network. This new global view of network resources has led to tremendous advances in new intelligent network services, usually not fulfilled by traditional architectures. In addition, SDN reduces the complexity of network configuration and management. For this reason, SDN-based applications are expected to experience an exponential growth in the next few years including an extension of this concept for example to infrastructure-less wireless networks (Software Defined Sensor Networks SDSN). However, this paradigm shift creates new challenges for both the industry and research communities. Efficient resource management, security, quality of service or the integration with other platforms such as cloud, big data or internet of things are still open questions in this new model. To explore these research issues, this special issue will present state-of-the-art of issues, current efforts, and solutions for SDN and SDSN. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and selected based on their quality and their relevance to this special issue. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: - SDN-SDSN applications for wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Advances in Southbound and Northbound APIs for SDN-SDSN networks - Software Defined Networks programming and simulation - Tools for management and troubleshooting of Software Defined based networks - Interoperable service-oriented technologies to share real world data among heterogeneous devices - Integration of Software Defined technologies with traditional sensor network architectures - Scalable management of network, computing and storage capacity - Advanced security, privacy, authentication, trust and verification with the SDN-SDSN technology - Performance analysis on single and multi-controller architectures - Orchestration of virtual network resources All submissions are subject to the journal’s peer-review procedures. The authors should follow the journal’s Author Guide at http://digital-library.theiet.org/journals/author-guide when preparing papers for submission to the Special Issue. The Authors should indicate “Special Issue on Advanced Applications and Services on Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Software Defined Sensor Networks (SDSN)” on their manuscripts.

Modern enterprises face a strong pressure to increase agility and competitiveness, to operate on the global market, and to engage in manifold alliances. However, the vast majority of strategic initiatives in enterprises fail, meaning that enterprises are unable to gain success from their strategy. The key reason for these failures is the lack of coherence and consistency among the various components of an enterprise. At the same time, the need to operate as a unified and integrated whole is becoming increasingly important. Currently, these challenges are dominantly addressed from a functional or managerial perspective, as advocated by the management and organization sciences, and as implemented in MBA programs. Such knowledge is indeed necessary for managing an enterprise, but it is inadequate for bringing about changes in a fully systematic and integrated way. To do that, one needs to take a constructional, ontological or engineering perspective. This special session is part of the International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management (IC3K - http://www.ic3k.org/), to be held in Rome, Italy on October 21 - 24, 2014. It will be sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information and Control and Communication (INSTICC) and held in cooperation with the The European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM), Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), ACM Special Interest Group on Management Information Systems (ACM SIGMIS), ACM Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence (ACM SIGART) and Information & Knowledge Management Society (IKMS). INSTICC is Member of the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA), Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) and Object Management Group (OMG). Logistics Partner the Science and Technology Events (SCITEVENTS). Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in a special section of the conference proceedings book, under an ISBN reference and on CD-ROM support. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Index) and Scopus.
