One explanation as to why the Semantic Web has not quite caught on yet is that the barrier to entry is too high. This talk describes TRANSLATOR, a free tool available as a Java Web Start application designed to allow anyone, even non-experts, to write facts and rules in formal representation for use on the Semantic Web.

Text categorization is the process of assigning predefined categories to textual documents. As the exponential growth of web pages and online documents continues, there is an increasing need for systems that automatically classify text into proper categories.

Sequential and simultaneous auctions are two important mechanisms for buying and selling multiple objects. These two mechanisms yield different outcomes (i.e., different surpluses, different revenues, and also different profits to the winning bidders). Given this, we compare the outcomes for the sequential and simultaneous mechanisms for the following scenario.

In this talk, I will describe our prototype pen-based system for entering and manipulating mathematical expressions, currently called MathBrush.
Speaker: Mattt Enns
For my Masters thesis I researched the effects of word sense disambiguation on lexical chains. A lexical chain is a sequence of words in a document that are semantically related (i.e., related in meaning).

This tutorial gives an overview of rich representations for probabilistic reasoning. The first third of the tutorial gives the basics of logic, knowledge representation and probability.

The ability to update the structure of a Bayesian network when new data becomes available is crucial for building adaptive systems. Recent work demonstrates that the well-known Davis-Putnam procedure combined with a dynamic decomposition and caching technique is an effective method for exact inference in Bayesian networks with high density and width.

While many clustering methods assume clusters are described by parameters or points in a vector space, an alternative approach is to identify a set of training cases as 'exemplars' and then assign every other training case to an exemplar.

Consider the scenario of routing of a Fedex delivery van. The packages to be delivered are received by midnight and delivery starts at 7:00am. This means we have seven hours to compute the best possible approximation to the optimum Travelling Salesman Path computable in that time.
Speaker: Allan Caine
In this talk, we propose a model called MITS --- Mixed Initiative Intelligent Tutoring System for Sudoku.
