TODAY'S R&D IS TOMORROW'S COMMERCIAL ADVANTAGE - ARE YOU TAKING ADVANTAGE OF OUR R&D IN SCOTLAND?

ADS Scotland is delighted to partner with Scottish Universities on the supplementary briefing series focussing on topics around R&D Technology.

The next supplementary session is on:

An introduction to CISpaces and automated decision making - University of St Andrews 

The School of Computer Science at St Andrews is a small and friendly school with strong research groups in Artificial Intelligence, Constraint Programming, Programming Languages, and Systems. This talk will give a briefing of research underway and interests of particular interest to the ADS community, with deep dives into two particular research areas:

  1. An introduction to CISpaces, a system to support collaborative intelligence analysis. CISpaces uses computational argumentation techniques to support analysts in making sense of information acquired from a variety of information sources, facilitating rapid identification of plausible hypotheses to produce more robust intelligence products.
  2. An introduction to research on automated decision making an optimisation methods, languages and systems. These allow an effective way of determining an optimal course of action. The inputs to a system like this are more than just raw data, we allow injecting domain-specific expert knowledge into the system; there are wide-ranging applications within logistics, planning, and optimisation.
