Title : [1] A Computational Agent Model Using Internal Simulation to Generate Emotional Dream Episodes [2] Physiological Model-Based Decision Making on Distribution of Effort over Time

Presenter Gabriele Modena
Abstract This will be a rehearsal of two, 15 minutes each, presentations that I will give at the upcoming BICA11 on behalf of prof. Jan Treur. In [1] a computational agent model will be presented that models dreaming based on internal simulation. In [2] an agent model will be presented that describes how in high load tasks physiological effort relate to exhaustion and feeling fatigue, and this is used as a form of monitoring the agent’s remaining resources.

Title : Extracting core knowledge from Linked Data

Presenter Lora Aroyo
Abstract Recent research has shown the Linked Data cloud to be a potentially ideal basis for improving user experience when interacting with Web content across diff erent applications and domains. Using the explicit knowledge of datasets, however, is neither suffi cient nor straightforward. Dataset knowledge is often not uniformly organized, thus it is generally unknown how to query for it. To deal with these issues, we propose a dataset analysis approach based on knowledge patterns, and show how the recognition of patterns can support querying datasets even if their vocabularies are previously unknown. Finally, we discuss results from experimenting on three multimedia-related datasets.
