Human Behavior Recognition Technologies: Intelligent Applications for Monitoring and Security
Recently, the ICT field has seen a shift from machine-centered focuses to human and user knowledge-based approaches. However, as priorities shift, questions arise on how to detect and monitor users behavior. Human Behavior Recognition Technologies: Intelligent Applications for Monitoring and Security takes an insightful look into the applications and dependability of behavior detection. In addition, this comprehensive publication looks into the social, ethical, and legal implications of these areas. Researchers and practitioners interested in the computational aspects of behavior monitoring as well as the ethical and legal implications will find this reference source beneficial.
Artificial General Intelligence
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Artificial General Intelligence, AGI 2018, held in Prague, Czech Republic, in August 2018. The 19 regular papers and 10 poster papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 52 submissions. The conference encourage interdisciplinary research based on different understandings of intelligence, and exploring different approaches. As the AI field becomes increasingly commercialized and well accepted, maintaining and emphasizing a coherent focus on the AGI goals at the heart of the field remains more critical than ever.
Word Embeddings: Reliability & Semantic Change
Word embeddings are a form of distributional semantics increasingly popular for investigating lexical semantic change. However, typical training algorithms are probabilistic, limiting their reliability and the reproducibility of studies. Johannes Hellrich investigated this problem both empirically and theoretically and found some variants of SVD-based algorithms to be unaffected. Furthermore, he created the JeSemE website to make word embedding based diachronic research more accessible. It provides information on changes in word denotation and emotional connotation in five diachronic corpora. Finally, the author conducted two case studies on the applicability of these methods by investigating the historical understanding of electricity as well as words connected to Romanticism. They showed the high potential of distributional semantics for further applications in the digital humanities.
Artificial General Intelligence
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Artificial General Intelligence, AGI 2011, held in Mountain View, CA, USA, in August 2011. The 28 revised full papers and 26 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. The papers are written by leading academic and industry researchers involved in scientific and engineering work and focus on the creation of AI systems possessing general intelligence at the human level and beyond.
From Narratology to Computational Story Composition and Back
Although both deal with narratives, the two disciplines of Narrative Theory (NT) and Computational Story Composition (CSC) rarely exchange insights and ideas or engage in collaborative research. The former has its roots in the humanities, and attempts to analyze literary texts to derive an understanding of the concept of narrative. The latter is in the domain of Artificial Intelligence, and investigates the autonomous composition of fictional narratives in a way that could be deemed creative. The two disciplines employ different research methodologies at contradistinct levels of abstraction, making simultaneous research difficult, while a close exchange between the two disciplines would undo...
Flexible Workflows
Traditional workflow management systems support the fulfillment of business tasks by providing guidance along a predefined workflow model. Due to the shift from mass production to customization, flexibility has become important in recent decades, but the various approaches to workflow flexibility either require extensive knowledge acquisition and modeling, or active intervention during execution. Pursuing flexibility by deviation compensates for these disadvantages by allowing alternative paths of execution at run time without requiring adaptation to the workflow model. This work, Flexible Workflows: A Constraint- and Case-Based Approach, proposes a novel approach to flexibility by deviation...
Shallow Discourse Parsing for German
The last few decades have seen impressive improvements in several areas of Natural Language Processing. Nevertheless, getting a computer to make sense of the discourse of utterances in a text remains challenging. Several different theories which aim to describe and analyze the coherent structure of a well-written text exist, but with varying degrees of applicability and feasibility for practical use. This book is about shallow discourse parsing, following the paradigm of the Penn Discourse TreeBank, a corpus containing over 1 million words annotated for discourse relations. When it comes to discourse processing, any language other than English must be considered a low-resource language. This...
Semantics of Belief Change Operators for Intelligent Agents: Iteration, Postulates, and Realizability
One of the core problems in artificial intelligence is the modelling of human reasoning and intelligent behaviour. The representation of knowledge, and reasoning about it, are of crucial importance in achieving this. This book, Semantics of Belief Change Operators for Intelligent Agents: Iteration, Postulates, and Realizability, addresses a number of significant research questions in belief change theory from a semantic point of view; in particular, the connection between different types of belief changes and plausibility relations over possible worlds is investigated. This connection is characterized for revision over general classical logics, showing which relations are capturing AGM revis...
Knowledge Representation and Inductive Reasoning Using Conditional Logic and Sets of Ranking Functions
A core problem in Artificial Intelligence is the modeling of human reasoning. Classic-logical approaches are too rigid for this task, as deductive inference yielding logically correct results is not appropriate in situations where conclusions must be drawn based on the incomplete or uncertain knowledge present in virtually all real world scenarios. Since there are no mathematically precise and generally accepted definitions for the notions of plausible or rational, the question of what a knowledge base consisting of uncertain rules entails has long been an issue in the area of knowledge representation and reasoning. Different nonmonotonic logics and various semantic frameworks and axiom syst...
