• Computing Science Seminar. van Gijzel on "A principled approach to the implementation of argumentation models"

  04 March 2014, 14:00 - 15:00

  Abstract: Argumentation theory is an area that combines both philosophical concepts and computational models to deliver a practical approach to reasoning that is able to deal with uncertain information and possibly conflicting viewpoints. Structured argumentation in particular can model domain specific knowledge and argumentation schemes. However, despite these practical components, there is...

• Computing Science Seminar. Motik on "Theory and Practice: The Yin and Yang of Intelligent Information Systems"

  25 February 2014, 14:00 - 15:00

  Abstract:  Theoretical and practical research complement each other, and their synergy is essential to developing advanced information systems. I will illustrate this using examples from my research in ontology languages, reasoning, and big data management. I will also discuss how we can foster interest in combining theory and practice in...
