Augmenting human cognitive activities with Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered machine agents shows promising potential, with new cloud services released regularly. However, rapidly using these in traditional applications requires technical skills beyond typical users. Developers build or extend applications to harness these services, often delaying availability to these users. Chatbot-style conversational interfaces attempt to address this but favour simple interactions. To support richer solutions, I propose knowledge sharing through co-construction of task-relevant information between humans and machine agents. Specifically, shared knowledge supporting multiple modalities and a range of ...
The success of diagnostic knowledge systems has been proved over the last decades. Nowadays, intelligent systems are embedded in machines within various domains or are used in interaction with a user for solving problems. However, the development of a knowledge system is still a critical issue. Similarly to projects dealing with customized software at a highly innovative level a precise specification often cannot be given in advance. Moreover, necessary requirements of the knowledge system can be defined not until the project has been started or are changing during the development phase. This thesis motivates that classical, document-centered approaches cannot be applied in such a setting. W...
Matthew Price and Peter Owen both have their roots within the borders of Wales. Together they decide to build a new town, Manod, in the depopulated valleys of South Wales. Seemingly a splendid idea, and yet a world of plotting, scheming and resistance lies in store.
M.A.BRAMER University ofPortsmouth, UK This volume comprises the refereed technical papers presented at AI-2006, the Twenty-sixth SGAI International Conference on Innovative Techniques and Applications of Artificial Intelligence, held in Cambridge in December 2006. The conference was organised by SGAI, the British Computer Society Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence. The papers in this volume present new and innovative developments in the field, divided into sections on AI Techniques, Knowledge Discovery in Data, Argumentation, Dialogue Games and Optimisation, Knowledge Representation and Management, Semantic Web, and Model Based Systems and Simulation. For the first time the volume ...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th European Conference on Case-Based Reasoning, ECCBR 2004, held in Madrid, Spain in August/September 2004. The 56 revised full papers presented together with an invited paper and the abstract of an invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 85 submissions. All current issues in case-based reasoning, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to advanced applications in various fields are addressed.
It is over 20 years since the functional data model and functional programming languages were first introduced to the computing community. Although developed by separate research communities, recent work, presented in this book, suggests there is powerful synergy in their integration. As database technology emerges as central to yet more complex and demanding applications in areas such as bioinformatics, national security, criminal investigations and advanced engineering, more sophisticated approaches like those presented here, are needed. A tutorial introduction by the editors prepares the reader for the chapters that follow, written by leading researchers, including some of the early pione...
