Brief description of our firm is mentioned below:-
RISKPRO INDIA
• Riskpro is India’s first national practice dedicated to risk management services and training, corporate governance, and global regulatory compliances.
• Risk can be defined as a prospect of loss or reduced gain that can adversely affect the achievement of an organisation’s objectives.
• When greed overtakes need, it spells trouble. Manifested as ‘bankruptcy’ in much of the developed world and ‘corruption’ closer to home, greed has clearly disrupted some major industrialised economies and enhanced the risks of doing business
• In today’s world, risks are not few. The reason companies so often fail to systematically manage their key risks is rooted in the way they define the risks they face. Risks are manageable and the answer to untapped business opportunities that lie dormant waiting for risk factors to turn favourable
• Riskpro was founded in 2009 with offices in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore and it has already added eight member firms in Ahmedabad, Agra, Chennai, Gurgaon, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Ludhiana, and Pune. All our offices and member firms are well equipped and staffed with qualified professionals viz. CA, CWA, CS, CPA, CIA, CISA, CFA, and MBA
• Riskpro’s founders are qualified risk management specialists with extensive work experience in India, Middle East, Europe and USA in several industries and financial institutions
• Riskpro aims to be the preferred service provider for large and medium enterprises on risk protection, corporate governance, and global regulatory issues; delivering state-of-the-art quality and timely services at viable rates

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.
