Machine Learning-based Anomaly Detection and Perturbation Analysis in Nuclear Reactors
-This talk will provide an overview and main results of a recently finished 4-year £5M EU-H2020 project (Sep 2017 – Aug 2021) entitled “Core Monitoring Techniques and Experimental Validation and Demonstration (Cortex - https://cortex-h2020.eu/)” that involved 20 partners from 11 countries (EU, Japan and US). Georgios was leading activities in...

Formal Argumentation, Dialogue, Users and Explanation
-In this talk I will describe several related strands of research around the use of argumentation and dialogue for human/machine interaction. These include its use in the context of explanation of program behaviour, as an explanatory mechanism for complex opaque systems such as planners and of computational reasoning process such...

Generating and Reasoning with Argumentation Graphs
-In argumentation theory, we study how to model reasoning through the construction and evaluation of arguments using, so called, argumentation semantics. However, this two steps process (generation and evaluation) have been shown to be limiting due to the large number of arguments generated from real-life knowledge bases. Moreover, although it...

CS Seminar: Evaluating Natural Language Generation
-A key challenge in Natural Language Generation (NLG) is evaluating the quality of texts produced by an NLG system. Robust and reliable evaluation is essential to determining whether a new NLG model or system advances state-of-the-art, understanding weaknesses of current NLG systems, and giving users a good understanding of what...

Computing Science Seminar. Moncur on"The role of digital technologies in transitional life events"
-Abstract: Digital technologies are now used across the human lifespan. In this seminar, I'll discuss my HCI research that explores the current roles of digital technologies across transitional human life events (becoming an adult, becoming a parent, breaking up, retiring, end of life ), and the ways in which digital technologies could be designed...

Computing Science Seminar. de Ruiter on "How Not to Study Interaction"
-Abstract: In this talk I will argue that human interaction cannot be studied properly using the standard experimental methods that have been successful in other areas of the cognitive sciences. Of the many problems with these methods, I will focus on two important ones: (a) the trade-off between experimental control and ecological validity, and (b) profound...

Computing Science Seminar. Rovatsos on "Diversity-Aware AI - the next frontier?"
-Abstract: Recently, AI has produced impressive advances mostly by following a "standard model" based on data-driven exploration of large solution spaces and optimisation toward a well-defined objective function. Arguably, this process model has little in common with human intelligence, where objectives are often vaguely defined and conflicting, satisficing behaviour is often...
