Bio world going digital, 27 March 2015, Irelandbioflux
Recent advances in synthetic biology open up new possibilities in healthcare, agriculture, chemicals, materials, energy, and bioremediation. With approximated 15bn molecular assays performed per year in biological laboratories, the automation of these procedures is a strong demand by laboratory scientists. Digital Biology is the computer aided programming of biological assays using digital microfluidic biochip (DMFB) devices based on electrowetting on dielectric technology. Digital Biology allows for wide scale automation of laboratory procedures in synthetic biology by improving efficiency between 1000 to 100000 fold compared to manual laboratory work, for the first time enabling wide scale rapid prototyping for the iterative creation of biological systems. We want to develop the Droplet Flux Technology for intricate control of droplets on DMFBs. Droplet Flux will be a combination of an online software suit for researchers to plan experiments, an open source operating system for DMFB devices and wetware kits to perform a wide range of standardized bioassays used in synthetic biology. Provided that yet open safety questions around synthetic biology are resolved, a portable device using Flux Technology could be constructed and its use extended for e.g. environmental monitoring in agriculture or point of care diagnostics for regular citizens.
We are just at the start exploring the opportunities of the Internet, with 90% or more of the possibilities still unexplored! Over three billion new minds are soon going to connect to the global network. The challenges of decentralization and distribution of previously hierarchical and centralized functions are revolutionizing the design of services. The exponential technologies, with their characteristic unpredictability, are disrupting industries that previously thought themselves immune to the digital revolution. What are the strategies to be able to leverage the new waves of technology? How can we quickly revise experiments creating virtuous circles of evolution? In today's hyper-connected world there are no barriers to entry and the distance between idea and action is reduced to zero!

Due to the recent COVID-19 outbreak, everybody had to quickly rearrange their lifestyle and learn how to get through isolation.
Keeping in touch has never been more compelling and challenging at the same time.
A recent survey conducted in Italy, states that 80% of the population felt like they needed psychological support to get through quarantine. We believe that if people had a way to feel surrounded by their friends and had been able to share activities, this number would be significantly lower. This is where our new app TreeHouse comes in handy as it guides the user in contributing to the life of the community: a virtual tree will come to life and thrive thanks to both real-life and online interactions. Sharing content, chatting with friends, or drinking a cup of tea together will make a leaf or a branch grow, but if the user is missing for too long, the tree will suffer from their absence, in complete symbiosis.
Nevertheless, checking how the tree develops helps the members feel the actual presence of the community, and makes them able to support each other, letting the tree flourish again.

Expressions (REs) are widely used to find patterns among data, like in genomic markers research for DNA analysis, signature-based detection for network intrusion detection systems, or search engines. TiReX is a novel and efficient RE matching architecture for
FPGAs, based on the concept of matching core. RE passes into the compilation and optimization phase to be efficiently translated into sequences of basic matching instructions that a matching core runs on input data, and can be replaced to change the RE to be matched.

Drug Repurposing is the investigation of existing drugs on the pharmaceutical market for new therapeutic purposes; drug repurposing reduces the time and cost of clinical trial steps, saving years, and billions of dollars in R&D. Identifying new diseases on which a drug can be effective is a complex problem: our approach leverages knowledge graphs (KG), networks composed of many types of entities and relations, on which embedding and graph completion techniques can be applied to infer insights and analyses. Our KG is built from well-known databases such as DrugBank, UniProt, and CTD and contains over one million relationships between more than 70K biological and pharmaceutical entities like diseases, genes, proteins and drugs. In this work, we research the applicability of knowledge graph completion techniques, such as link prediction (and triple classification) using a various number of different embedding models from different families: matrix factorization, geometric and Deep learning. Using these models is possible to infer new drug-disease relationships on our KG, and identify novel drug repurposing candidates. Preliminary experimental results are encouraging and show how state-of-the-art machine learning models, combined with the ever-growing amount of biological data freely available to the research community, could significantly improve the field of drug repurposing.

Plaster is a multi-layered infrastructure (based on C++) aimed at supporting the development of multi-FPGA systems and the management of large data flows between the nodes. In particular, the goal of the project is to provide the end-user with a set of tools (by the means of a Python library and a C++ service) to easily assign bitstreams to nodes and route data between them, in the context of a PYNQ-based cluster suitable for distributed acceleration of computation-intensive tasks. Using this platform, an abandoned objects detection tool is implemented, designed as a Multi-FPGA distributed system exploiting an hardware accelerated version of the YOLO neural network for image detection.

Lung cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancer forms, with a mortality of 84.2% in 2018. Our project focuses on shortening diagnosis time and improving accuracy in the overall detection of this disease. We implemented a convolutional neural network capable of automatically identifying lungs on a CT image. Segmentation is a necessary first step for the development of an algorithm capable of identifying and classifying the tumor mass since errors in the ROI identification can lead to errors in the tumor mass recognition. The network architecture follows the structure of a preexisting network, the U-Net that performs well on medical images. We reached a very good test accuracy of 99.63%: the strength of our work lies in the large number of CT images of both healthy and sick patients, used for the training and validation of the network.

The last decade saw cloud computing more and more involved as the primary technology to develop, deploy and maintain complex infrastructures and services at scale. This happened because cloud computing allows to consume resources on-demand and to dynamically scale performance. Some compute-intensive workloads require computing power that current CPUs are not able to provide and, for this reason, heterogeneous computing with FPGAs is becoming an interesting solution to continue to meet SLAs. However, requests to cloud services can come at unpredictable rates and, for this reason, resources may be underutilized for significant portions of time. To increase resource utilization, we propose BlastFunction, which is a system that allows to accelerate compute-intensive kernels with shared FPGAs handled in a serverless fashion, while reaching near-native execution latency. In this talk we will present the main aspects of BlastFunction, showing its capabilities to time-share FPGAs across multiple function instances to optimize devices utilization. We will also show how we implemented the sharing and orchestration mechanism on a Kubernetes cluster based on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 F1 instances.

In the last few years, the use of Next Generation Sequencing technology in medicine has become more and more common, in particular for the diagnosis of genetic diseases and the production of personalized drugs. In this context, the identification of characteristic patterns in the human genome plays an important role. Exact pattern matching algorithms are an efficient way to identify those sequences. However, this process represents a bottleneck in the genomic field as it is very computationally intensive and time-consuming. Moreover, general-purpose architectures are not optimized to handle the huge amount of data and operations used in a genomics context. Due to these considerations, we propose an implementation of the Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) algorithm on FPGA, a particular family of integrated circuits capable of reconfiguration for an infinite number of times. The KMP algorithm results in being very fast and efficient, by reducing unnecessary comparisons of characters that have already been matched. Furthermore, to achieve an overall speedup of the alignment process, the implementation on FPGA will bring on an even faster and more efficient solution, thus providing the patient with a quick response.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
