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...

Why is Physical Organic Chemistry Important in Pharmaceutical Chemical Process Development?
-The utility of applying approaches rooted in physical organic chemistry to the development of manufacturing processes for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) will be demonstrated through three AstraZeneca case studies. These will illustrate applications to a reaction, work-up and to control a reaction occurring during the formation and crystallisation of a...

Chemistry Seminar - "Waking-up silent bacterial genes for natural product discovery"
-Mining bacterial genomes has revealed a vast number of gene clusters proposed to direct the biosynthesis of novel specialized natural products. However, many of these gene clusters remain silent, or are poorly expressed, in laboratory growth conditions.

National Research Council of Canada (NRC) Metrology: who are we and what do we do?
-After a period of business-led research which was accompanied with a dramatic drop in publications and patents, National Research Council of Canada (NRC) turned the page over in 2016 and opened its doors to young scientists and new research ideas. I will briefly talk about NRC Metrology, what do we...
