This document discusses different types of verbals: gerunds, participles, and infinitives. Gerunds end in "-ing" and function as nouns. Participles also end in "-ing" or "-ed/-en" and function as adjectives. Infinitives are formed with "to" plus the base verb form and can function as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns. The document provides examples and rules for using each verbal form correctly based on its syntactic function in a sentence.

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.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Essentials of Automations: Optimizing FME Workflows with ParametersSafe Software
Are you looking to streamline your workflows and boost your projects’ efficiency? Do you find yourself searching for ways to add flexibility and control over your FME workflows? If so, you’re in the right place.
Join us for an insightful dive into the world of FME parameters, a critical element in optimizing workflow efficiency. This webinar marks the beginning of our three-part “Essentials of Automation” series. This first webinar is designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to utilize parameters effectively: enhancing the flexibility, maintainability, and user control of your FME projects.
Here’s what you’ll gain:
- Essentials of FME Parameters: Understand the pivotal role of parameters, including Reader/Writer, Transformer, User, and FME Flow categories. Discover how they are the key to unlocking automation and optimization within your workflows.
- Practical Applications in FME Form: Delve into key user parameter types including choice, connections, and file URLs. Allow users to control how a workflow runs, making your workflows more reusable. Learn to import values and deliver the best user experience for your workflows while enhancing accuracy.
- Optimization Strategies in FME Flow: Explore the creation and strategic deployment of parameters in FME Flow, including the use of deployment and geometry parameters, to maximize workflow efficiency.
- Pro Tips for Success: Gain insights on parameterizing connections and leveraging new features like Conditional Visibility for clarity and simplicity.
We’ll wrap up with a glimpse into future webinars, followed by a Q&A session to address your specific questions surrounding this topic.
Don’t miss this opportunity to elevate your FME expertise and drive your projects to new heights of efficiency.

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.

Verbals
1. Verbals
1. Gerunds
A verbal is a word formed from a verb but functioning as a different part of
speech.
A gerund is a verbal ending in -ing that functions as a noun.
Like an ordinary single-word noun, a gerund may be used as a
SUBJECT
DIRECT OBJECT
4. DELAYED APPOSITIVE
In the example below, the gerund phrase renames the subject, this.
NOTE: Do not confuse gerunds with verbs (predicates) in the progressive
tense.
GERUND
5. PREDICATE VERB
Even though is cooking and was scratching end in -ing, they are not
gerunds because they are used as predicate verbs, not as nouns.
2. Participles
A verbal is a word formed from a verb but functioning as a different part of
speech.
A participle is a verbal that functions as an adjective.
6. Two kinds of participles:
A. Present participles, always ending in -ing, are created from the form of
a verb used with the verb to be ( am, is, are, was, were, been) as an auxiliary
verb (progressive tense).
Removing the auxiliary verb and using the -ing form of the main verb as an
adjective produces a present participle.
B. Past participles, usually ending in -ed or -en, are created from the
form of a verb used with the verb to be as an auxiliary verb (passive voice).
7. Removing the auxiliary verb and using the -en form of the main verb as
an adjective produces a past participle.
9. B. Past participles, usually ending in -ed or -en, are created from the form
of a verb used with the verb to be as an auxiliary verb (passive voice).
Removing the auxiliary verb and using the -en form of the main verb as
an adjective produces a past participle.
11. Participles and participial phrases should be placed near the nouns they
modify. They may either precede or follow a noun.
For punctuation rules used with participles and participial phrases, follow
this link.
3. Infinitives
A verbal is a word formed from a verb but functioning as a different part of
speech.
An infinitive is a verbal formed by placing to in front of the simple present
form of a verb.
Examples:
to swim to think to read to be to cut
to turn
12. Infinitives may function as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns.
A. Adjectival infinitives
Just like a single-word adjective, an infinitive used as an adjective always
describes a noun.
An adjectival infinitive always follows the noun it describes.
EXAMPLE
Like gerunds and participles, infinitives may incorporate other words as part of
their phrase.
EXAMPLE
B. Adverbial infinitives
Just like a single-word adverb, an infinitive used as an adverb always
describes a verb.
An adverbial infinitive usually occurs at the beginning or at the end of a
sentence and does not need to be near the verb it describes.
13. EXAMPLE: Adverbial infinitive at sentence beginning
EXAMPLE: Adverbial infinitive at sentence end
HINT: You can always identify an adverbial infinitive by inserting the test
words in order in front of
infinitive. If the words in order make sense, the infinitive is
adverbial.
14. PUNCTUATION NOTE:
1. Use a comma after the adverbial infinitive when it starts a sentence.
2. Do not separate the adverbial infinitive from the rest of the sentence if
the infinitive ends the
sentence.
C. Nominal infinitives
Like a single-word noun, a nominal infinitive may function as a
SUBJECT
DIRECT OBJECT
