Open PhD position at Leibniz University Hannover
by Jingyao Su May 25, 2023

May 25, 2023

The Institut für Erdmessung (IfE) at Leibniz Universität Hannover (Germany)/DFG funded Research Unit (FOR5455) invites applications for the position of a Research Assistant (Doctoral Candidate, m/f/d) on *Distribution-free Uncertainty Description for Terrestrial Laser Scanner-based Areal Deformation Analysis (Salary Scale 13 TV-L, 100 %)* The position starts October 1st 2023 and is limited to 4 years. In the DFG funded Research Unit (FOR5455) “Deformation Analysis Based on Terrestrial Laser Scanner Measurements” (TLS-Defo, www.tlsdefo.de) relevant topics in TLS based deformation analysis will be investigated in a consortium of five universities (Uni Bonn, TU Munich, Leibniz University Hannover, KIT Karlsruhe, and TU Vienna). Project 5 "Distribution-free Uncertainty” will use intervals and sets to derive observation intervals for terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) measurements based on data analysis of terrestrial laser scans. Next, a concept has to be developed to propagate them to TLS point clouds. Subsequently, uncertainty regions of each TLS point can be derived as well as concepts for deformation analysis by intersection of these regions over subsequent epochs. For more information please consult the job listing at https://www.ife.uni-hannover.de/en/institute/job-opportunities The application deadline is June 4, 2023.

2nd Call for papers: GRID Workshop @ KR2023
by Sihem Belabbes May 17, 2023

May 17, 2023

** Apologies for multiple postings ** CALL FOR PAPERS The First International Workshop on Graphical Reasoning with Imperfect Data, collocated with KR2023 (https://imsva91-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%3a%…) Website: GRID2023 [1] INTRODUCTION The quality of real-world data is a major issue in many application domains, especially in data-intensive AI applications. As a matter of fact, the presence of inconsistent, incomplete, inaccurate or uncertain data may not only hamper problem modeling and solving, but also the process of explaining the solutions. More theoretical approaches, on the other hand, have provided graphical tools for principled knowledge representation and reasoning that are much more transparent than opaque real-world AI applications. Indeed, graphical models such as Bayesian networks, knowledge graphs and ontologies have long been used to facilitate the representation of and the reasoning with imperfect data. By providing a visual dimension, they contribute to increasing the understanding of the problem, and thus help practitioners, users (lay and expert) as well as engineers in designing solutions that improve trust, efficiency and transparency. The GRID workshop aims at bringing the applied and the theoretical approaches together for the benefit of both. Real-world applications can gain in explainability through the use of graphical models, while addressing the intrinsic challenges of poor quality data can improve the understanding and use of graphical models. Small workshops are often organised around one unifying theme, be it a methodological theme or a challenge. We here focus on both a methodological theme and a challenge. Our approach will bring together 1) a variety of methods drawing on graphical representation and 2) a variety of application domains dealing with different aspects of imperfect data. The varieties generate the necessary distance between approaches to provide opportunities for cross-pollination, while similarities of methods and domains make for a sufficient closeness guaranteeing mutual relevance. TOPICS This workshop welcomes submissions dealing with the general topics of graphical models and imperfect data and their integration, from the perspective of knowledge representation and reasoning. A non-exhaustive list of keywords includes: + Bayesian nets + Markov nets + Credal nets + Dung-style argumentation + Knowledge graphs + Ontologies + Data visualization tools + Inconsistent data + Uncertain data + Data integration + Multi-source data + Heterogeneous data + Consistency maintenance + Real-world data + Data imputation + Missing data + Spurious data + Data loss + Outliers + Adversarial data SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Papers should be formatted according to the LNCS style and submitted as a single PDF file. We welcome submissions of theoretical and practical work including early-stage research ideas, methods, tools and applications. We welcome short papers (2-6 pages), and long papers (up to 12 pages). All accepted papers will be considered for an oral presentation. The reviewing process will be light and driven more by relevance to the workshop and the paper's potential to foster discussion than by the technical maturity of the contribution. Workshop submissions and camera-ready versions will be handled by EasyChair. Please submit at: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=grid2023 IMPORTANT DATES - May 31, 2023: Submission deadline - July 4, 2023: Paper notification - July 31, 2023: Camera-ready papers due PROCEEDINGS The accepted papers will appear on the workshop website and the online proceedings will be non-archival.

ISIPTA 2023: Call for Posters reminder (deadline 1 May)
by Enrique Miranda April 22, 2023

April 22, 2023

** *Apologies if you receive multiple announcements* *** The Thirteenth International Symposium on Imprecise Probability: Theories and Applications (ISIPTA 2023) Oviedo, 11-14 July, 2023. In our call for papers we stated that there is “Uncertainty modelling beyond probability” and tried to convince you that ISIPTA 2023 is a good place for discussing such matters. The paper submission deadline has passed, but you can still present your work at ISIPTA, because poster abstract submission is open. These poster abstracts are intended for discussing preliminary results and open questions, or for bringing published results to the attention of the ISIPTA audience. Each accepted poster abstract will be announced in a short plenary spotlight presentation, and the accompanying poster will be presented at length during one of the discussion sessions. Given the prominent role of poster presentations at ISIPTA, these sessions provide you with a genuine opportunity for presenting your work to the ISIPTA audience. The deadline for poster submission is May 1. You can submit at any time before that, though, and we will provide you with a decision within two weeks. Not convinced yet? Then perhaps the following features can persuade you. Basic info:ISIPTA 2023 will take place in hotel ACForum in Oviedo, from July 11 to July 14, 2023. Additional information is available on our website: https://isipta23.sipta.org/ Scope:The ISIPTA conferences are devoted to robustness and imprecision in uncertainty modelling, inference and decision making, focusing in particular on uncertainty frameworks that extend or replace the probabilistic one. Invited speakers:ISIPTA 2023 will feature keynote talks by Gert de Cooman (Ghent University, Belgium), Marta Kwiatkowska (University of Oxford, United Kingdom) and Michel Grabisch (Université Paris I- Panthéon Sorbonne). In addition, a homage to the late Professor Terrence Fine will take place. Concept: Each accepted contribution is presented anddiscussed, in two separate sessions. Presentations are short and always plenary. Detailed explanations and discussions will take place in a poster session. Registration: Registration is open.
