Presentations by Computing Science Postgrads.

Abstract: The Data Lab will be presenting how as one of the SFC’s Innovation Centres it is looking to promote and fund Industry and academic collaboration. The Datalab Bio: With an engineering background and a MBA from the University of Southampton, Duncan has over 20 years industry experience in the UK and Internationally. With...

Abstract: Traditional taxi services commonly charge a fixed price for their services based on a combination of travel distance and time. However, services such as Uber and Lyft seek to use market mechanisms (i.e., by considering changes in supply and demand) to compute trip pricing. Such pricing has several potential benefits,...

Abstract: Normative multi-agent systems offer the ability to integrate social and individual factors to provide increased levels of fidelity with respect to modelling social phenomena, such as cooperation, coordination, group decision making, and organization, in both human and artificial agent systems. An important open research issue refers to group norms, i.e. norms...

Abstract: “So What, Who Cares, Why You, Why Now, and Why Me?” – A 5 question framework to help you think, conceptualise, develop, assess and strengthen a venture concept. Designed to help you escape the “nodding head” syndrome and instead develop relationships and commercial opportunities to help bring your venture from...

Abstract: Many people fail to realise the variety of situations that data tables can represent, and also what we can infer from them.  A recent paper in AIEDAM Journal (Gray, Runcie & Sleeman (2015)) includes a description of how many  kinds of table used in describing Configuration problems can be used efficiently in inference and constraint...

Abstract: The ability to solve physical problems –from simple ones such as opening a box containing a reward to more complex ones such as manufacturing ad-hoc tools– is under intense scrutiny in humans, other animals, and artificial systems. However, the cognitive and evolutionary processes underlying the emergence of such capacities remain...

How to combine quantum Boltzmann statistics with classical mechanics  

Abstract: In this talk, I will present the CISpaces toolkit, a collaborative virtual space for intelligence analysis. CISpaces has been developed in collaboration with UCLA and Honeywell within the International Technology Alliance programme.  The aim of intelligence analysis is to make sense of information that is often conflicting or incomplete, and to...

Abstract: Linked Open Data (LOD) has become one of the most important community efforts to publish high-quality interconnected semantic data. Such data has been widely used in many applications to provide intelligent services such as entity search and personalized recommendation. While DBpedia, one of the LOD core data sources, contains resources...
