SUMMARY:Milagros Miceli\, “Transparency for Whom? Designing Data Documentation With Data Workers”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \nThe opacity of datasets poses a significant challenge to creating inclusive and intelligible machine learning (ML) systems. Various AI ethics initiatives have addressed this issue by proposing standardized dataset documentation frameworks based on the value of transparency.  In this talk\, I propose a shift of perspective: from documenting for transparency to documenting for reflexivity. Based on a long-term project with outsourced data workers in Argentina\, Bulgaria and Syria\, I argue for the need of designing documentation starting from the needs and experience of the workers who collect\, sort\, and label the data that trains ML models. This requires considering the historical inequalities\, working conditions\, and epistemological standpoints that shape both data work and datasets. \nThis talk will take place in person at SCIoI. \nPhoto by Hunter Harritt on Unsplash \n  \n

SUMMARY:Oussama Zenkri and Florian Bolenz (Science of Intelligence)\, "Complex Behavior From Simple Strategies"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nIn our project\, we explore the idea that complex\, intelligent behavior can be generated by selecting from simple strategies in a smart way. In the first part\, we will talk about how we tested this idea of strategy selection in the context of human decision making under risk\, and we will discuss the potential and remaining challenges of this approach. In the second part\, we will move to more complex behavior and present a lockbox-like task that we have designed to investigate strategy learning and strategy selection in human exploration behavior. \nThis talk will take place in person at SCIoI. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Ulrike Scherer and Sean Ehlman (Science of Intelligence)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nCollective dynamics play a crucial role in everyday decision-making. Whether social influence promotes the spread of accurate information and ultimately results in collective intelligence or leads to false information cascades and maladaptive social contagion depends on the cognitive mechanisms underlying social interactions. \nThis talk will take place in person at SCIoI. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Mohsen Raoufi (Science of Intelligence)\, From State Estimation to Collective Estimation\, and from Individuality to Complexity in Swarm Robotic Systems
DESCRIPTION:Using swarm optimization algorithms as heuristic solutions in various engineering problems\, including the state estimation of nonlinear systems\, has been an inspiration to me for my SCIoI project. We started our project by studying the “Wisdom of Crowds” effect\, i.e. the notion that the average of many imperfect estimations\, under the right conditions\, can potentially yield a perfect estimation. However\, achieving an accurate estimation in a distributed manner requires individuals to finely balance many tradeoffs\, e.g. the exploration-exploitation trade-off. In addition to discussing a few of these tradeoffs in my talk\, I will demonstrate how the interaction of agents leads to more complex behavior\, particularly when the connectivity of the communication network is limited. For instance\, this limitation results in the emergence of “echo-chambers” in the collectives. \nIn the second part\, I will talk about the inter-individual variations we observed during real robot experiments with Kilobots. This side project opened up a new dimension to the complexity of the individual and collective behaviors in swarm robotic systems. \nThis talk will take place in person at SCIoI. \nPhoto by Alina Grubnyak on Unsplash \n

SUMMARY:Michael Taborsky\, "The Evolution of Social Behaviour"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe social structure and behaviour of organisms is highly divergent. How can this stunning diversity in nature be explained? I will argue that a few key principles are responsible for the evolution of social behaviour\, with all its simple and complex manifestations. Organisms compete for resources. As survival and reproduction require resources and only fiction knows a land of milk and honey\, different individuals inevitably compete due to their own diverging fitness interests. To succeed in the competition for resources\, organisms may either “race” to be quicker than others\, “fight” for privileged access\, or “share” their efforts and gains. In this talk\, I attempt to show how the ecology and intrinsic attributes of organisms select for each of these strategies. My special emphasis will be on the evolution of cooperation\, with examples including a range of different taxa. Here the crucial question is how the conflict of fitness interests can be mediated to allow competitors for resources to unite and benefit from collective goal pursuit. \nThis talk will take place in person at SCIoI. \nPhoto by Torsten Dederichs on Unsplash \n
