Adam, (01)
Your session page is up now. Ref:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2006_05_04 (02)
Kindly review it, edit, add material, etc. as you see fit. I'll
be announcing your session after the weekend (shortly after I
announce Jack Park's.) (03)
Thank you, again, for agreeing to give this talk. (04)
Regards. =ppy

>> "Ontology Management in CALO, A Cognitive Assistant that Learns and
>> Organizes" (08)
>> CALO is one of DARPA's most ambitious efforts to develop a persistent
>> assistant that lives with, learns from, and supports users in managing
>> the complexities of their daily work lives. A multi-year project that
>> unites some 200+ researchers from 25 academic and commercial
>> organizations, the goal is to produce a single system where learning
>> happens "in vivo", inside an ever-evolving agent that can observe,
>> comprehend, reason, anticipate, act, and communicate. (09)
>> In this talk, we will first provide an overview of CALO: the what, the
>> how, the why. Next, we will discuss the engineering methods we use to
>> develop and maintain the ontology of CALO. CALO has some unusual
>> requirements, such as "Concept Learning" where the ontology is
>> extended and modified "in-the-wild" by machine learning algorithms.
>> Finally, we will demonstrate IRIS, a semantic desktop that serves as
>> the office environment that integrates best with CALO. IRIS leverages
>> many of CALO's techniques to ontology management, and being open
>> source, provides a distributable, transparent example of the approach. (010)
>> Bio:
>> Adam Cheyer is currently a Program Director in SRI's Artificial
>> Intelligence Center, where he serves as
>> Chief Architect of the CALO/PAL project, an ambitious effort to create
>> a next-generation personal cognitive
>> assistant. Previously, Mr. Cheyer was VP of Engineering at Dejima, a
>> provider of natural interaction technology
>> for mobile applications, and before that, VP of Engineering at
>> Verticalnet, an enterprise software provider.
>> As Senior Scientist and Co-Director of the Computer Human Interaction
>> Center (CHIC) at SRI International,
>> Mr. Cheyer led a multidisciplinary team of researchers exploring web
>> services, distributed knowledge, and
>> pervasive computing. (011)
