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.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
3. BRIEF SUMMARY
Throughout creating my product I have aimed to try and create continuity throughout my
magazine. To ensure this I have made sure I have used:
• The same font throughout my magazine
• The same colour scheme (whilst making sure I stick to using the colours black, white, red
and yellow)
• Making sure the numbers on my contents page fit the number on my double page spread
• How my layout matches Conventions I have studied
• How I have used conventions in my magazine to make it look real and proffesional.
4. Using the same font
As you can see to ensure continuity and a house
style I made sure the same font as my masthead
was the same font as my contents page title. This
makes both my contents and front age look like they
are from the same magazine and not two completel
different magazines.
I also used the same font as my feature stories as
my contents page features. This also helps connect
the two different stories and helps the reader
directly know where to look for the specific story.
For my double page spread I used the same font in
my stand first as the one usd as my feauture stories
in both my front cover and contents page, this again
adds continuity
5. THE SAME COLOUR SCHEME
For my front cover I chose four different colours
which doesn’t actually stick to conventions of a
magazine. However I think these four colours
suit the genre of my magazine and don’t look
too bold and take over my magazine. I chose to
do the headlines in either red or yellow and not
just one colour as this is something I
researched and was conventional for a
magazine. The main feature story is in white as
this stands out the most in front of the black
photo furthermore it actually fits the feature
story ‘the story in black and white’.
6. THE SAME COLOUR SCHEME
For my contents page I once again stuck to the
same four colours as my front cover however
didn’t use the colour yellow as much.
This time I made sure the font colour for my
subheadings was always red this made the
reader know which parts are subheadings and
which parts are feature stories. This is
conventional as I made sure all numbers and
subheading were red and all feature stories
were black. In conclusion for my contents page
to add a house style and continuity I made sure
the colour scheme was the same as my front
cover.
7. THE SAME COLOUR SCHEME
For my double page spread I actually
only stuck to 3 of the colours out of
the four I chose to use in my front
cover and double page spread.
However this made it simple and
easier to look at. I made most the
page black and white so it used
continuity to my feature story ‘the
story in black and white’ . I only made
the stand first and pull quote red so it
stood out as these are parts of a
double page spread people read first.
8. MATCHING THE NUMBERS
As you can see to add continuity and to make my
magazine look professional I made sure the page
number from my contents page matched the page
number for my double page spread. This makes my
magazine look real as the matching numbers mean that
if my magazine was real the reader would be able to go
directly to the correct page of my double page spread.
9. LAYOUT OF FRONT COVER
I made sure my skyline was at the
correct place at the top of the page
In he corner I added my plug to
encourage people to buy my
magazine.
My masthead is in the top left corner
and is a larger font than the rest of
my magazine. It is also in a different
font style so it stands out.
Feature stories that are on the left
and right side of my magazine,
including artists that feature inside.
Main image framed as a medium
close up with a simple background. In
black and white so text stands out
around it.
Main feature story in a different font
style and colour. It is bigger than the
other texts so it stands out to the
reader.
Barcode and price together in the
bottom corner so it doesn’t take up
too much space.
10. LAYOUT OF CONTENTS PAGE
Masthead to add continuity and issue
date and number, all in top left corner.
Title in top right corner same font as
masthead.
Main image of the double page spread
and near to the front of magazine. Same
image as front cover and dps.
Subheadings of different conventional
sections within a music magazine
Articles listed consecutively in a column
with page numbers for readers reference.
Extra original images that are suited to
the genre and advertise other feature
stories
Deal with a subscription to the magazine
using images of past front cover drafts.
11. LAYOUT OF DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD
Large title at the top in an
interesting font to capture
readers attention.
Stand first in a different
colour and font style with
important words in white.
Pull quote in the centre of the
text in a different colour and
font to article.
Advertisement of the artists
album and its availability on
iTunes.
Page number, masthead and
date to add continuity and
lets the reader be reminded
of the magazine and issue.
Article on one side of the
page in columns so the text
does not overlap the crease
and can be easily read.
Main image taking up one
whole side of the page and is
not overlapping the crease
Caption of who the
photo is of and credit
to the photographer.
