Voices from the Frontline: Revealing the AI Practitioners' viewpoint on the European AI Act

Kathrin Grosse

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in an ever larger number of industries. Alongside this development, however, abundant works argue that AI-driven systems are lacking in terms of safety, ethics and transparency. As a direct consequence, the ...

Formal Foundations of Capture Tracking

Aleksander Slawomir Boruch-Gruszecki

Type systems are a device for verifying properties of programs without running them. Many programming languages used in the industry have always had a type system, while others were initially created without a type system and later adopted one, when the ad ...

From scattered sources to comprehensive technology landscape : A recommendation-based retrieval approach

Karl Aberer, Chi Thang Duong

Mapping the technology landscape is crucial for market actors to take informed investment decisions. However, given the large amount of data on the Web and its subsequent information overload, manually retrieving information is a seemingly ineffective and ...

The Case for Performance Interfaces for Hardware Accelerators

George Candea, Aikaterini Argyraki, Rishabh Ramesh Iyer, Jiacheng Ma

While systems designers are increasingly turning to hardware accelerators for performance gains, realizing these gains is painstaking and error-prone. It can take several person-months to determine if a given accelerator is a good fit for a given piece of ...

Curiosity-driven exploration: foundations in neuroscience and computational modeling

Wulfram Gerstner, Alireza Modirshanechi

Curiosity refers to the intrinsic desire of humans and animals to explore the unknown, even when there is no apparent reason to do so. Thus far, no single, widely accepted definition or framework for curiosity has emerged, but there is growing consensus th ...

Periodic and Aperiodic NiFe Nanomagnet/Ferrimagnet Hybrid Structures for 2D Magnon Steering and Interferometry with High Extinction Ratio

Dirk Grundler, Sho Watanabe, Andrea Mucchietto, Shixuan Shan, Elif Nur Dayi, Vinayak Shantaram Bhat

Magnons, quanta of spin waves, are known to enable information processing with low power consumption at the nanoscale. So far, however, experimentally realized half-adders, wave-logic and binary output operations were based on few µm-long spin waves and re ...

Framework to evaluate the value of monitoring-technique information for structural performance monitoring

Eugen Brühwiler, Numa Joy Bertola

The management of existing civil infrastructure is becoming more crucial as a large share of bridges is approaching their theoretical end of service duration. Structural performance monitoring aims to verify bridge safety at a given time, and it should be ...

Sediment continuity and augmentation measures

Giovanni De Cesare, Robin Schroff

Impaired sediment transport can have numerous adverse impacts on the eco-morphodynamics of the riverscape. If well designed, sediment augmentation measures present a promising mitigation approach at different scales. This chapter focuses on flume experim ...

Measurement in the Age of Information

Marilyne Andersen, Forrest Simon Webler

Information is the resolution of uncertainty and manifests itself as patterns. Although complex, most observable phenomena are not random and instead are associated with deterministic, chaotic systems. The underlying patterns and symmetries expressed from ...

A Theory of Value for Service Ecosystems

Blagovesta Hristova Kostova

In this thesis, we present a theory of value for the design and analysis of service ecosystems. The theory is based on general systems thinking. The concept of a system is used for relating knowledge from different disciplines (such as software engineering ...

Utility/privacy trade-off as regularized optimal transport

Etienne Patrice Boursier

Strategic information is valuable either by remaining private (for instance if it is sensitive) or, on the other hand, by being used publicly to increase some utility. These two objectives are antagonistic and leaking this information by taking full advant ...

Efficient and Effective Multi-Modal Queries Through Heterogeneous Network Embedding

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong, Thanh Trung Huynh

The heterogeneity of today's Web sources requires information retrieval (IR) systems to handle multi-modal queries. Such queries define a user's information needs by different data modalities, such as keywords, hashtags, user profiles, and other media. Rec ...

Safety in Numbers: Asymptotic Analysis of a Monitoring Problem

Emre Telatar, Reka Inovan

In this work, we introduce a setup where a monitoring entity attempts to distinguish a cheating player among a group of regular players where all players behave in order to maximize their reward. We assume that the cheating player has an "information advan ...
