(author)How can humans remain in control of artificial intelligence (AI)-based systems designed to perform tasks autonomously? Such systems are increasingly ubiquitous, creating benefits - but also undesirable situations where moral responsibility for their actions cannot be properly attributed to any particular person or group. The concept of...journal article 2022

Ionescu, A. (author), Katsifodimos, A (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)As data is produced at an unprecedented rate, the need and ex- pectation to make it easily available for the end-users is growing. Dataset Discovery has become an important subject in the data management community, as it represents the means of providing the data to the user and fulfilling an information need. Since the end-user is the one that...conference paper 2021

Siachamis, G. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author), van Deursen, A. (author), Katsifodimos, A (author)Data Integration has been a long-standing and challenging problem for enterprises and researchers. Data residing in multiple heterogeneous sources must be integrated and prepared such that the valuable information that it carries, can be extracted and analysed. However, the volume and the velocity of the produced data in addition to the modern...conference paper 2021

Balayn, A.M.A. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)The increasing use of data-driven decision support systems in industry and governments is accompanied by the discovery of a plethora of bias and unfairness issues in the outputs of these systems. Multiple computer science communities, and especially machine learning, have started to tackle this problem, often developing algorithmic solutions to...journal article 2021

van Alphen, G.A. (author), Qiu, S. (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)In online crowd mapping, crowd workers recruited through crowdsourcing marketplaces collect geographic data. Compared to traditional mapping methods, where workers physically explore the area, the benefit of using online crowd mapping is the potential to be cost-effective and time-efficient. Previous studies have focused on mapping urban objects...conference paper 2020

Sharifi Noorian, S. (author), Qiu, S. (author), Psyllidis, A. (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Up-to-date listings of retail stores and related building functions are challenging and costly to maintain. We introduce a novel method for automatically detecting, geo-locating, and classifying retail stores and related commercial functions, on the basis of storefronts extracted from street-level imagery. Specifically, we present a deep...conference paper 2020

Qiu, S. (author), Gadiraju, Ujwal (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)The trend of remote work leads to the prosperity of crowdsourcing marketplaces. In crowdsourcing marketplaces, online workers can select their preferable tasks and then complete them to get paid, while requesters design and publish tasks to acquire their desirable data. The standard user interface of the crowdsourcing task is the web page,...conference paper 2020

Li, Z. (author), Katsifodimos, A (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Cameras are ubiquitous nowadays and video analytic systems have been widely used in surveillance, traffic control, business intelligence and autonomous driving. Some applications, e.g., detecting road congestion in traffic monitoring, require continuous and timely reporting of complex patterns. However, conventional complex event processing ...journal article 2020

(author)Social media provides a timely yet challenging data source for adverse drug reaction (ADR) detection. Existing dictionary-based, semi-supervised learning approaches are intrinsically limited by the coverage and maintainability of laymen health vocabularies. In this paper, we introduce a data augmentation approach that leverages variational...conference paper 2019

(author), Paas, Fred (author)Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) allow learning to take place anytime and anywhere with little external monitoring by teachers. Characteristically, highly diverse groups of learners enrolled in MOOCs are required to make decisions related to their own learning activities to achieve academic success. Therefore, it is considered important to...journal article 2019

Qiu, S. (author), Psyllidis, A. (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Knowledge about the organization of the main physical elements (e.g. streets) and objects (e.g. trees) that structure cities is important in the maintenance of city infrastructure and the planning of future urban interventions. In this paper, a novel approach to crowd-mapping urban objects is proposed. Our method capitalizes on strategies for...conference paper 2019

Harms, Jan-Gerrit (author), Kucherbaev, P. (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Dialog agents, like digital assistants and automated chat interfaces (e.g., chatbots), are becoming more and more popular as users adapt to conversing with their devices as they do with humans. In this paper, we present approaches and available tools for dialog management (DM), a component of dialog agents that handles dialog context and...journal article 2019

(author)The study of learning is grounded in theories and research. Since learning is complex and not directly observable, it is often inferred by collecting and analysing data based on the things learners do or say. By virtue, theories are developed from the analyses of data collected. With the proliferation of technology, large amounts of data are...book chapter 2019

Scaling Effective Learning Strategies: Retrieval Practice and Long-Term Knowledge Retention in MOOCsDavis, D.J. (author), Kizilcec, René F. (author), Hauff, C. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Large-scale online learning environments such as MOOCs provide an opportunity to evaluate the efficacy of learning strategies in an informal learning context with a diverse learner population.

More often than not, however, MOOCs fall short of this goal — a majority of learners are already highly educated (with a Bachelor degree or more) and come from specific parts of the (developed) world. Learners from developing countries without a higher degree are underrepresented,...journal article 2018
