Abstract

Innovation is one of the key enablers for European enterprises to compete in global markets. The term ‘innovation’ is constantly used in speeches of managers, politicians, public administrators. However, in the large majority of cases, the term is used as a generic ‚place holder‘, a sort of container whose actual content is left to the intuition. For this reason it is important to deeply elaborate, specifically on the notion of Enterprise Innovation, to better understand the essence and meaning of innovation.

Innovation stems from a virtuous mix of intuition, creativity, and a solid background knowledge. Each innovation endeavour has its own characteristics, largely different from previous experiences. It falls in the category of ‘wicked problems’, i.e., problems difficult to solve because of incomplete, fuzzy, changing requirements. Nevertheless, there are recurring patterns and it is possible to conceive systematic methods, and supporting information systems, to promote and manage innovation avoiding the risk to close it in a ‘cage’, risking depressing the fundamental creativity and fantasy. This talk will present an innovative framework for enterprise innovation that includes a methodology and an innovation management platform which is based on an generic behavioural pattern (i.e., independent of the industrial sector), a strong knowledge orientation, and an innovation monitoring system funded on a number of Key Performance Indicators, to constantly keep the progress of the innovation project under control.

Interactive debugging of knowledge bases

KostyaAss.-Prof. Dr. Kostyantyn Shchekotykhin | Mi, 28.05.2014 | 17:00-18:30, HS 2

Abstract: Effective debugging of knowledge bases is an important prerequisite for their broad application, especially in the areas that rely on everyday users which create and maintain knowledge bases such as the Semantic Web. In many cases users have different views of a domain, i.e. which knowledge about the domain has to be captured in a knowledge base and how it should be represented. Inappropriate usage of terms together with natural complications when formulating and understanding logical descriptions may result in faulty knowledge bases.

Recent approaches to debugging of knowledge bases use diagnosis methods to identify causes of the faults. In most debugging scenarios there are multiple explanations for a fault and, therefore, many diagnoses can be found by a debugger. In this case, localization of a fault, i.e. selection of the target diagnosis, must be done manually.

In this talk we present an interactive debugging approach which automatically identifies the target diagnosis by performing a sequence of queries to a user. That is, the system uses discrepancies between different fault explanations to generate a query to a user: whether or not some logical sentence must be implied by a knowledge base a user is going to create. Due to an impossibility of a user to provide answers to all existing queries, the debugger can use a variety of query selection strategies applied in active learning and select the most informative ones. This allows to minimize the number of queries required to localize a fault and simplifies debugging of knowledge bases in general.

User Intentions in Multimedia

LuxAssoc.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr. Mathias Lux | Mi, 14.05.2014 | 17:00-18:30, HS 2

Abstract: How to build better multimedia information systems? Management and organization of multimedia data has become easier thanks to the wide availability of metadata as well as advances in content-based image retrieval (CBIR); these advances, however, do not address what matters the most: the actual users of multimedia information systems. The goals and aims of users, i.e., their intentions, need to be put into focus in some creative way. In this talk I will investigate possibilities, challenges and opportunities for integrating user intentions into multimedia production, sharing, and retrieval.

This talk is part of / dieser Vortrag ist Teil der Ringvorlesung Informatik und Informationstechnik SS2014.

Efficient scalar multiplication in elliptic curve cryptography

HeubergerUniv.-Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr. Clemens Heuberger | Mi, 09.04.2014 | 17:00-18:30, HS 2

Abstract: Scalar multiplication is the key operation in public key cryptosystems implemented via elliptic (or hyperelliptic) curves. One strategy to implement it efficiently uses suitable digit expansions. Having a larger set of digits than strictly necessary introduces redundancy which can be used to minimise the number of expensive curve operations. Apart from binary expansions, expansions to complex bases are used; these correspond to efficient endomorphisms on the curve. We give a survey on these methods and their asymptotic analysis.
