Samiotis, I.P. (author), Qiu, S. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Yang, J. (author), Gadiraju, Ujwal (author), Bozzon, A. (author)Music content annotation campaigns are common on paid crowdsourcing platforms. Crowd workers are expected to annotate complex music artifacts, a task often demanding specialized skills and expertise, thus selecting the right participants is crucial for campaign success. However, there is a general lack of deeper understanding of the distribution...journal article 2022

Chu, L. (author), Masiliunas, Dainius (author), Crivellari, Alessandro (author), Lofi, C. (author)The outbreak of the coronavirus disease 19 (Covid-19) has posed a worldwide threat to human beings, economic activities, and society. Enforced lockdowns for limiting the spread of Covid-19 virus also substantially reduce air pollutant emissions from vehicle traffic, industrial plants, etc. The lockdown restrictions have brought beneficial...poster 2022

Samiotis, I.P. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Alaka, Shaad (author), Liem, C.C.S. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)In this demo we present Scriptoria, an online crowdsourcing system to tackle the complex transcription process of classical orchestral scores. The system’s requirements are based on experts’ feedback from classical orchestra members. The architecture enables an end- to-end transcription process (from PDF to MEI) using a scalable microtask design...conference paper 2022

Balayn, A.M.A. (author), Rikalo, N. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Yang, J. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)Deep learning models for image classification suffer from dangerous issues often discovered after deployment. The process of identifying bugs that cause these issues remains limited and understudied. Especially, explainability methods are often presented as obvious tools for bug identification. Yet, the current practice lacks an understanding...conference paper 2022

(author)Music content annotation campaigns are common on paid crowdsourcing platforms. Crowd workers are expected to annotate complicated music artefacts, which can demand certain skills and expertise. Traditional methods of participant selection are not designed to capture these kind of domain-specific skills and expertise, and often domain-specific...journal article 2021

Samiotis, I.P. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)Automated methods and human annotation are being extensively utilized to scale up modern classification systems. Processes though such as music transcription, oppose certain challenges due to the complexity of the domain and the expertise needed to read and process music scores. In this work, we examine how music transcription could benefit from...conference paper 2021

Balayn, A.M.A. (author), SOILIS, P. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Yang, J. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)Global interpretability is a vital requirement for image classification applications. Existing interpretability methods mainly explain a model behavior by identifying salient image patches, which require manual efforts from users to make sense of, and also do not typically support model validation with questions that investigate multiple...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

Harting, Tom (author), Mesbah, S. (author), Lofi, C. (author)We introduce a Language-consistent multi-lingual Open Relation Extraction Model (LOREM) for finding relation tuples of any type between entities in unstructured texts. LOREM does not rely on language-specific knowledge or external NLP tools such as translators or PoS-taggers, and exploits information and structures that are consistent over...conference paper 2020

Samiotis, I.P. (author), Qiu, S. (author), Mauri, A. (author), Liem, C.C.S. (author), Lofi, C. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)Human annotation is still an essential part of modern transcription workflows for digitizing music scores, either as a standalone approach where a single expert annotator transcribes a complete score, or for supporting an automated Optical Music Recognition (OMR) system. Research on human computation has shown the effectiveness of crowdsourcing...conference paper 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

van den Bercken, Laurens (author), Sips, R.H.J. (author), Lofi, C. (author)Health literacy, i.e. the ability to read and understand medical text, is a relevant component of public health. Unfortunately, many medical texts are hard to grasp by the general population as they are targeted at highly-skilled professionals and use complex language and domain-specific terms. Here, automatic text simplification making text...conference paper 2019

Valle Torre, M. (author), Ye, Mengmeng (author), Lofi, C. (author)Effectively modelling and querying experience items like movies, books, or games in databases is challenging because these items are better described by their resulting user experience or perceived properties than by factual attributes. However, such information is often subjective, disputed, or unclear. Thus, social judgments like comments,...conference paper 2019
