Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (Dagstuhl Seminar 22262)

Authors: Wendy E. Mackay, John Shawe-Taylor, and Frank van Harmelen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 12, Issue 6 (2023)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22262 "Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence". The goal of this Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshops is to provide the scientific and technological foundations for designing and deploying hybrid human-centered AI systems that work in partnership with human beings and that enhance human capabilities rather than replace human intelligence. Fundamentally new solutions are needed for core research problems in AI and human-computer interaction (HCI), especially to help people understand actions recommended or performed by AI systems and to facilitate meaningful interaction between humans and AI systems. Specific challenges include: learning complex world models; building effective and explainable machine learning systems; developing human-controllable intelligent systems; adapting AI systems to dynamic, open-ended real-world environments (in particular robots and autonomous systems); achieving in-depth understanding of humans and complex social contexts; and enabling self-reflection within AI systems.

Structure and Learning (Dagstuhl Seminar 21362)

Authors: Tiansi Dong, Achim Rettinger, Jie Tang, Barbara Tversky, and Frank van Harmelen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 11, Issue 8 (2022)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 21362 "Structure and Learning", held from September 5 to 10, 2021. Structure and learning are among the most prominent topics in Artificial Intelligence (AI) today. Integrating symbolic and numeric inference was set as one of the next open AI problems at the Townhall meeting "A 20 Year Roadmap for AI" at AAAI 2019. In this Dagstuhl seminar, we discussed related problems from an interdiscplinary perspective, in particular, Cognitive Science, Cognitive Psychology, Physics, Computational Humor, Linguistic, Machine Learning, and AI. This report overviews presentations and working groups during the seminar, and lists two open problems.

Cognitive Approaches for the Semantic Web (Dagstuhl Seminar 12221)

Authors: Dedre Gentner, Frank van Harmelen, Pascal Hitzler, Krzysztof Janowicz, and Kai-Uwe Kühnberger

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 2, Issue 5 (2012)


Abstract
A major focus in the design of Semantic Web ontology languages used to be on finding a suitable balance between the expressivity of the language and the tractability of reasoning services defined over this language. This focus mirrors the original vision of a Web composed of machine readable and understandable data. Similarly to the classical Web a few years ago, the attention is recently shifting towards a user-centric vision of the Semantic Web. Essentially, the information stored on the Web is from and for humans. This new focus is not only reflected in the fast growing Linked Data Web but also in the increasing influence of research from cognitive science, human computer interaction, and machine-learning. Cognitive aspects emerge as an essential ingredient for future work on knowledge acquisition, representation, reasoning, and interactions on the Semantic Web. Visual interfaces have to support semantic-based retrieval and at the same time hide the complexity of the underlying reasoning machinery from the user. Analogical and similarity-based reasoning should assist users in browsing and navigating through the rapidly increasing amount of information. Instead of pre-defined conceptualizations of the world, the selection and conceptualization of relevant information has to be tailored to the user's context on-the-fly. This involves work on ontology modularization and context-awareness, but also approaches from ecological psychology such as affordance theory which also plays an increasing role in robotics and AI. During the Dagstuhl Seminar 12221 we discussed the most promising ways to move forward on the vision of bringing findings from cognitive science to the Semantic Web, and to create synergies between the different areas of research. While the seminar focused on the use of cognitive engineering for a user-centric Semantic Web, it also discussed the reverse direction, i.e., how can the Semantic Web work on knowledge representation and reasoning feed back to the cognitive science community.

Towards Expressive Stream Reasoning

Authors: Heiner Stuckenschmidt, Stefano Ceri, Emanuele Della Valle, and Frank van Harmelen

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10042, Semantic Challenges in Sensor Networks (2010)


Abstract
Stream Data processing has become a popular topic in database research addressing the challenge of efficiently answering queries over continuous data streams. Meanwhile data streams have become more and more important as a basis for higher level decision processes that require complex reasoning over data streams and rich background knowledge. In previous work the foundation for complex reasoning over streams and background knowledge was laid by introducing technologies for wrapping and querying streams in the RDF data format and by supporting simple forms of reasoning in terms of incremental view maintenance. In this paper, we discuss how this existing technologies should be extended toward richer forms of reasoning using Sensor Networks as a motivating example.

09161 Summary – Generalization of spatial information

Authors: Sébastien Mustière, Monika Sester, Frank van Harmelen, and Peter van Oosterom

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9161, Generalization of spatial information (2009)


Abstract
From the early start of handling geo-information in a digital environments, it has been attempted to automate the process of generalization of geographic information. Traditionally for the production of different map scale series, but more and more also in other contexts, such as the desktop/web /mobile use of geo-information, in order to allow to process, handle and understand possibly huge masses of data. Generalization is the process responsible for generating visualizations or geographic databases at coarser levels-of-detail than the original source database, while retaining essential characteristics of the underlying geographic information.
