SUMMARY:Visual Computing Forum: The Future of Mobile Interaction with Prof. Morten Fjeld
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: The Future of Mobile Interaction  \nWHEN: Friday 9 September\, 10:15-11:15WHERE:510N3 (Blåbær)\, 5th Floor\, Thormøhlens Gate 55\, Høyteknologisenteret \nZoom: https://uib.zoom.us/j/67048590477?pwd=WUJJckZ4ZW1FY3ZtSjBiZnRqM3gwZz09#success \nABSTRACT: \n\n\n\n\nThe use of computerized devices is now ubiquitous in many societies. Our daily lives are shaped by perpetually changing interactive devices and applications\, from touch-based smartwatches and tablets to large digital displays. Yet while smart devices\, such as laptops\, pads\, and smartphones\, are mobile\, their users are typically either stationary or risking their physical safety using such devices while in- motion. The health effects of today’s mobile devices are well-documented. These effects include the impact of a predominantly sedentary lifestyle on both health and well-being of many individuals. This talk will present high-risk thinking\, design\, and engineering research into the domain on mobile user interaction. \n SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY:  \n\n\n\n\nMorten Fjeld is a professor of Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Bergen (Norway) and Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden). His research activities are situated in the field of Human- Computer Interaction with a focus on tangible and tabletop user computing. In 2005\, he founded the t2i Interaction Lab at Chalmers\, Sweden. He holds a dual MSc degree in applied mathematics from NTNU (Trondheim\, Norway) and ENSIMAG (Grenoble\, France)\, and a PhD from ETH (Zurich\, Switzerland). In 2002\, Morten Fjeld received the ETH Medal for his PhD titled “Designing for Tangible Interaction”. In 2011\, he was a visiting professor at NUS Singapore\, in 2016 and 2017 at Tohoku University\, Japan\, and in 2019 to 2020 at ETH Zurich. Morten Fjeld also has extensive industrial experience in the areas of fluid mechanics\, simulators\, and user interface design. \nFull bio: https://www.uib.no/personer/Morten.Fjeldt2i Lab Norway: http://t2i.not2i Lab Sweden: http://t2i.sehttps://dblp.org/pid/f/MortenFjeld.html https://scholar.google.no/citations?user=ZQhqxscAAAAJ&hl=sv&oi=ao

SUMMARY:MediaFutures Seminar: How Newspapers Use Audience Analytics and Metrics with Thomas Husken\, Data Analyst at Bergens Tidende
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Husken\, Data Analyst at Bergens Tidende\, will give a seminar on 9 September\, at 12:00. \nTITLE: How newspapers use audience analytics and metrics \nWHEN: Friday 9 September\, 12:00-13:00WHERE: MediaFutures \n  \nIn this workshop\, Thomas Husken\, data scientist in Bergens Tidende (BT)\, will talk about the usage of news audience data\, various metrics\, and analytics inside a news organization. Thomas is part of BT data analytics department\, working on frontpage optimization\, creation and maintenance of various analytical dashboards\, and many other analytical tasks. Newsrooms around the world have become centered around dashboards\, overloaded with metrics\, and news work is growingly data-driven. Ongoing research is revealing how analytics and metrics influences journalism culture\, work routines\, news values\, news selection\, among other. However\, beyond gaining knowledge about effects on work process which are reflected in content that consumers of media get\, we need to look deeper into technical insides of audience analytics and metrics\, or infrastructures for utilization of data about audience news use. In that respect\, Thomas Husken will provide unique insights into the audience analytics and metrics in BT as one of the oldest and the largest newspapers (measured by circulation) in Norway. \nThe workshop is primarily aimed at PhD and Postodoctoral researchers\, but also at others interested in various technological aspects of media work.     \n\nProgram: \nShort introduction – Ana Milojevic (Postdoc Fellow\, MediaFutures) \nHow newspapers use analytics and metrics – Thomas Husken (Data Scientist\, BT) \nQuestions and answers \n\nRegister your interest in workshop by sending e-mail to Ana Milojevic.

SUMMARY:MORS: Workshop on Multi-Objective Recommender Systems
DESCRIPTION:When: \n18. – 23. September 2022 \n \nWhat:\nThe 2nd workshop on Multi-Objective Recommender Systems (MORS) will be held in Seattle\, USA in conjunction with the 16th ACM Conference on Recommender Systems. The workshop\, with the aim of the gathering researchers and industry experts to discuss the significance and complications of incorporating multiple objectives into the recommender systems\, will take place between September 18th and 23rd (exact date to be announced). \nAssociate Professor Mehdi Elahi at the University of Bergen\, and MediaFutures Work Package 2 leader is one of the organizers of the workshop\, along with: \n\n\nHiman Abdollahpouri (Spotify\, USA) \n\n\nShaghayegh Sahebi (University at Albany\, State University of New York\, USA) \n\n\nMasoud Mansoury (University of Amsterdam\, Netherlands) \n\n\nBabak Loni (ING group\, Netherlands) \n\n\nZahra Nazari (Spotify\, USA) \n\n\nMaria Dimakopoulou (Spotify\, USA) \n\n\nThe theme of this year’s workshop is Long-term Optimization in Recommender Systems. The organizers now invite submissions of papers on the following topics: \n\n\nRecommender systems with multiple objectives \n\n\nBalancing the long-term impacts of the recommendations and the users’ short-term preferences \n\n\nReinforcement Learning for long-term optimization in recommender systems \n\n\nFeedback loops and the impact of recommendations in long term \n\n\nValue-aware recommendation (profit\, value\, purpose\, etc.) \n\n\nThe trade-off between relevance and bias in recommender systems \n\n\nRecommendation with multiple stakeholders \n\n\nConflict handling in multi-stakeholder recommendation \n\n\nFairness-aware recommender systems \n\nYou can read more about the workshop:\n\n\nhttps://sites.google.com/view/mors-2022/home\nhttps://recsys.acm.org/recsys22/mors/\n\n  \nFor updates regarding the workshop\, follow @MORS 2022 \nMore information about the 16th ACM Conference can be found here.

SUMMARY:MediaFutures Seminar: Building Knowledge Graphs with Media Content and Application for Tackling Misinformation with Raphael Troncy\, Associate Professor at EURECOM
DESCRIPTION:Raphael Troncy\, Associate Professor at EURECOM\, will give a seminar on 20 September\, at 10:00. \nTITLE: Building Knowledge Graphs with Media Content and Application for Tackling Misinformation \nWHEN: Tuesday 20 September\, 10:00-11:00WHERE: MCB Store læringsrom\, Læringslab 3rd floor.    / ZOOM: \nhttps://uib.zoom.us/j/67861782423?pwd=YzhRVWkrOVp5Q1gwTmhZU3c2djBlZz09 \nMeeting ID: 678 6178 2423 \nPassword: 10ZkuVs4 \n \nABSTRACT: \nThe sheer volume of multimedia content created every day across the many disparate distribution channels keeps challenging any traditional content management system. Routine tasks such as archiving\, editing\, content organization and retrieval by multimedia creators become prohibitively costly. On the user side\, the amount of multimedia content pumped daily can be simply overwhelming and the need for shorter and more personalized content has never been more pronounced. Recommending\, enriching and summarizing content can help to capitalize on users’ engagement and generate their interactions.In this talk\, I will first present several Knowledge Graphs developed with medias being radio and TV programs broadcaster in Europe\, news items published by a news agency or even social media posts shared on Twitter or Facebook. Next\, I will present a number of tools that contribute to automatic multimedia understanding by computers\, ranging from extracting topics using common sense knowledge or language models to recognizing recurring people in images. I will show how difficult it is for computers to decompose content into meaningful segments. I will show how to extract highlights from media content\, both for narrative-focused summarization and for maximising memorability and I will conclude with our current efforts aiming at tackling misinformation.   \nBIO: \nRaphael Troncy is an Associate Professor at the Data Science Department of EURECOM. He received his PhD from Grenoble University (France) in 2004 and held research positions at INA (France)\, CNR (Italy) and CWI (The Netherlands). He published more than 250 scientific papers in various journals\, top tier conferences and associated workshops and held key organisational roles in multiple world-leading conferences. He was the General Chair of The Web Conference in 2022. He is an expert in knowledge engineering\, information extraction and recommender systems. He is the principla investigator of many national and european projects where semantic technologies and information extraction are used together to build knowledge graphs\, exploratory search engines and recommender systems.
