Stefano de Giorgis Post-doc researcher at Institute for Cognitive Sciences and Technologies – National Research Council (ISTC-CNR), Italy The project involves knowledge representation techniques, neuro-simbolic AI, and cognitive semantics. According to the embodied cognition principles, individuals construct a cognitive representation and conceptualization of the external world based on their perceptual capabilities, according to their affordances,

Bram Renting PhD at Leiden University, Delft University of Technology In cooperative multi-agent environments, agents can be interdependent in completing tasks. We consider environments where agents schedule future interactions with others they depend on to perform the task. More specifically, our project focuses on human-robot warehouses where humans pick products from shelves and robots transport

Harmen de Weerd Assistant Professor at University of Groningen In social interactions, humans often make use of their “theory of mind”, which refers to their ability to reason about unobservable mental content of others. Humans can even use their theory of mind to reason about the way other use theory of mind. However, such higher-order

Xavier Fresquet Deputy Director, PhD at Sorbonne Université AI systems offer the potential for substantial benefits to society but they are not without risks, such as toxicity, misinformation, and bias. As with other complex technologies, society needs industry-standard safety testing to realize the benefits while minimizing the risks. To address this problem, an AI Safety

Alexa Kodde Project Manager at CLAIRE AI is the primary driver of scientific discoveries, industrial engineering, energy production, logistics, the creative economy, education, and public services. The vision for “AI Made in Europe” is more important than ever. But are we sure the vision has not become “AI Made Elsewhere”? Keywords: AI; moonshot; sovereignty Scientific

Carolin Benjamins PhD at Leibniz University Hannover Our goal is to progress on Dynamic Algorithm Configuration (DAC) for Bayesian Optimization (BO). BO is a widely-used and sample-efficient framework for optimizing black-box problems, which are often expensive to evaluate. Dynamically configuring BO enables to adapt to the optimization progress and to any problem landscape without prior

Sergio Muñoz Assistant Professor at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid The vast and ever-expanding digital landscape presents significant challenges for users striving to navigate and discern accurate information. This challenge is compounded by the dynamic nature of the Internet, characterized by attention-seeking strategies intended to exploit users’ unconscious emotional responses. This affects the credibility of information
