Slowinski, Roman Professor, Head of Laboratory Poznan University of Technology Poland Academia

Roman Słowiński is a full member of the Polish Academy of Sciences and Academia Europaea.
He has conducted extensive research on methodology and techniques of intelligent decision support where he combines Operational Research and Artificial Intelligence. His particular interest is focused on: addressing robustness issues in decision analysis; ordinal data mining; preference learning; modeling of uncertainty and imprecision in decision problems; rough set theory; fuzzy set theory; evolutionary multiobjective optimization; project scheduling, including multiple category resources, multiple job modes, multiple criteria and uncertainty; decision support in medicine, technology, economics and environmental studies.
Today Roman Słowiński is renown for his seminal research on using rough sets in decision analysis. He started this work in 1983 with the founder of the rough set concept, the late Zdzisław Pawlak, and continued with Salvatore Greco and Benedetto Matarazzo since the early 90’s. He organized the First International Workshop on Rough Set Theory and Applications that took place in Poznań in 1992.
As author or co-author, he has published 14 books and more than 400 articles, including 300 papers in major scientific journals (Web of Science h-index=45, Scopus h-index=55, Google Scholar h-index=82). He advised 26 Ph.D. theses in Operational Research and Computer Science; his 16 former PhD students are professors in academia.
He has been holder of European Chair at the University of Paris Dauphine, and invited professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, the University of Catania, Polytech’Mons, University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, Yokohama National University, Université Laval-Québec, University of Missouri-Columbia, University of Osaka, Polytech’Tours, Ecole Centrale Paris, and others.
Roman Słowiński is recipient of the EURO Gold Medal (1991), and Doctor Honoris Causa of Polytechnic Faculty of Mons (2000), University Paris Dauphine (2001) and Technical University of Crete (2008). He is also a Honorary Professor of the Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (2018).
In 1997 he was given the Edgeworth-Pareto Award by International Society on Multiple Criteria Decision Making and in 2005 he received the Annual Prize of the Foundation for Polish Science – regarded as the highest scientific honor awarded in Poland. In 2016, he received the Scientific Award of the President of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Since 2017, he has been elevated to the grade of IEEE Fellow for „contributions to dominance-based rough set theory, robust ordinal regression and preference learning“. The society of the 19th century Polish positivist Hipolit Cegielski gave him the title of „Outstanding Personage of Organic Work“ (2017), and the City Council of Poznań awarded him the title of „Distinguished Citizen of the City of Poznań“ (2018).
In December 2018, Roman Słowiński has been elected vice-president of the Polish Academy of Sciences for the term 2019-2022.
Since 1999, he is Coordinating Editor of the European Journal of Operational Research (Elsevier, CiteScore=4,08), a premier journal in Operations Research. In years 1998-2003, he was editor of Decision Analysis Section of the International Journal on Fuzzy Sets and Systems. Currently, he is on editorial board of twenty scientific journals. He is coordinator of the EURO Working Group on Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding, and Past President and Fellow of the International Rough Set Society.

Falomir Llansola, Zoe Ramon y Cajal Professor/Researcher University Jaume I, Castellón, Spain Spain Academia AI expert:

In 2011 I got my PhD with honors at UJI and my Dr.-Ing. title at Universität Bremen (UBremen), Germany (double Dr. degree). At the last stage of my PhD (2010-2011) I carried out industry technology transfer: I was a research engineer at the enterprise Cognitive Robots SL where I applied some results of my PhD thesis to the automation of scrubber machines and automatic mosaic assembling.

In 2012, as a postdoc, I got a position in open competition funded by the Excellent Initiative at the University of Bremen. In 2013, I was awarded a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowships for Career Development based on scientific CV and research proposal which I conducted at Bremen Spatial Cognition Center (BSCC). In 2015, I got a 4-year Independent Post-Doc position funded by the Excellent Initiative at University of Bremen. At University of Bremen, 80% of my time was dedicated to research and 20% to teaching seminars about „Qualitative Descriptors and Computational Applications (QDCA)” and “Ethics for social robotics“. I developed teaching materials, gave lectures, supervised practical courses and evaluated exams. At BSCC I started and directed the Spatial Reasoning Games research team. I was also Junior Fellow at Hansewissenschaftkolleg of Advanced Studies at Delmenhorst, Germany (2015-2017).

In 2020, I was awarded a tenure-track Ramon-y-Cajal professorship by the Spanish Ministry of Science, and currently I am carrying out research and teaching courses at University Jaume I (UJI), Castellón, Spain.

My research expertise lies in Qualitative Spatio-Temporal Reasoning (QSTR) applied to robotics and to ambient intelligent systems. Recently I lead a new research line on defining qualitative models for solving spatial reasoning challenges to help people to improve their spatial cognition skills. Through all my research experience, I developed a multidisciplinary background which, apart from Qualitative Reasoning, Knowledge Representation techniques and Human-Machine Interaction, also includes Machine Learning, Colour Cognition, Bioinformatics, Geographic Information Systems and Creative and Spatial Problem Solving.

I am a member of the European Association for Artificial Intelligence (EURAI) and secretary at the main board of Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence (ACIA).

Di Noia, Tommaso Professor Politecnico di Bari Italy Academia, Industry AI expert:

My research activity focuses mainly on the themes of Artificial Intelligence and Data Management about techniques and applications of machine learning and recommender systems. Recently, my attention has shifted to exploiting the information encoded within Big Data datasets, such as those available thanks to the Linking Open Data initiative, to create content-based recommendation engines (content-based) or hybrid ones. On personalized information access and the modeling of user preferences, I have recently proposed innovative solutions that combine and integrate different aspects, solutions, and techniques from Artificial Intelligence.
Of great interest to my research is the security of Artificial Intelligence systems with particular reference to Adversarial Machine Learning.
Initially, my research was dedicated to solving theoretical and practical problems in distributed scenarios of resource retrieval and automatic reasoning. In order to verify the validity of the obtained results, these have consistently been implemented and tested in different application domains such as e-commerce, business process management, Web Service discovery, and decision support systems for skills management in recruitment agencies. Subsequently, guided by the results achieved in electronic commerce, my attention shifted to studying new ways to combine knowledge representation techniques and automatic reasoning, both to automatic negotiation between rational agents with preferences and to ubiquitous scenarios and protocols.

I am an auditor for national and international research projects related to my research topics, for high-level international journals and conferences in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Semantic Web, and Recommender Systems.

Hoeren, Thomas university professor Institute for Information, Telecommunications and Media Law (University of Münster) Germany Academia AI expert:

To whom it may concern,
My names is Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoeren and I am a law professor at the University of Muenster, Germany, and head of the Institute for Information, Telecommunications and Media Law.

For almost 25 years, I have been a professor of IT law with a special focus on the legal issues of blockchain, algorithms and AI. Thus, I have already supervised several interdisciplinary projects in this area (e.g. „GOAL-Governance of and by Algorithms“, „Blockchain and Law“, and „Assessing Big Data -ABIDA“ . In addition, I am an adjunct professor at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology (FIT).

In the past, I also served as an international visiting scholar at the University of Amsterdam (Institute for Information Law), Kyushu University (Fukuoka/Japan), Harvard Law School (Boston), Stanford University, and Oxford Internet Institute/Balliol College, among others. These programs have allowed me to focus on international contexts and differences when considering IT law and the legal assessment of artificial intelligence.

I am co-editor of several renowned journals in the field of IT law, such as „Multimedia und Recht“ (C.H.Beck), „International Journal of Law and Information Technology“ (Oxford University Press) and the „Zeitschrift für Datenschutz“ (C.H.Beck). All of these journals focus on the interaction of technological progress and the shaping of law. The discussion of artificial intelligence is also comprehensively addressed here. In addition, my research team and I are regularly publish on IT legal topics in renown law journals.

So far, this commitment has been honored, among other things, with the award „for German-Dutch scientific cooperation“ (2018), the award of the „Daidalos-Silbermünze der Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes“ (2018) and honor with the ALCATEL-SEL Research Award „Technische Kommunikation“ (2005).

I would like to contribute my professional expertise to your research network and at the same time participate in the innovative ideas of the numerous members. In addition, I would like to join the research network with the Institute for Information, Telecommunications and Media Law in order to be able to contribute our competences even more comprehensively and profitably to the research network.

Best regards,
Thomas Hoeren

I am a part-time assistant professor at the IDLab research group of Ghent University (since October 2019) and a full-time research manager and senior scientist at the imec research hub for nanotechnologies and digital technologies.

I received my PhD in Computer Science in August 2013 pertaining to knowledge discovery and management for eHealth applications by using ontologies and semantic reasoning. During this time, I worked on several eCare projects to improve the continuous care of patients in institutionalized care settings.

As a professor at Ghent University, I lead the Knowledge Management team. This team performs research into a) expressive semantic stream and distributed reasoning, b) the incorporation of expert knowledge in data analytics algorithms, c) hybrid AI, fusing semantic models and machine learning, and d) explainable AI by leveraging Knowledge Graphs. I am also particularly interested in methodologies for capturing domain knowledge from experts & using this knowledge to optimize intelligent agents and the way we interact with them. This research is mainly applied to the domains of predictive healthcare and industry 4.0 in order to realize context-aware and personalized decision support systems.

One of my passions is fostering collaboration with societal and industrial partners in interdisciplinary projects to valorize our research toward truly impactful applications. This is realized through a number of (government sponsored) projects, for which I set up and lead the trajectory from proposal, into project management and valorization and dissemination afterwards.

With others, I am informally developing the the RefPerSys symbolic artificial intelligence free software system (with a few people from India). It is for Linux, GPLv3+ licensed.

You could be interested by the works of the late Jacques Pitrat (1934 – oct. 2019) who was the director of my PhD jury, defended in 1990 in Paris. I strongly recommend reading Pitrat’s blog on http://bootstrappingartificialintelligence.fr/WordPress3/ and his last book
Artificial Beings: the Conscience of a Conscious Machine
ISBN-13: 978-1848211018

I am currently working on cybersecurity at CEA LIST in France on the Bismon static source code analyzer (funded by CHARIOT & DECODER European projects). However, these fundings will soon stop, and I have to find another funding.

Hence I am seeking some applications and some funding for this RefPerSys AI software, and trying to get be funded (perhaps thru some HorizonEurope project proposal) to be able to work more on RefPerSys.

If you are an academic or industrial interested in RefPerSys, please contact me by email

The RefPerSys website is an amateur website, see http://refpersys.org/

Head of Biomedical Engineering Department and Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics, Gdansk University of Technology, Poland (www.biomed.edu.pl, https://mostwiedzy.pl/en/jacek-ruminski,11727-1)

Currently involved in 6 projects:
– deep learning for CT image classification (brain hemorrhages)
– machine learning for physical activity analysis and healthy life prognosis
– machine learning for image processing in dental studies
– application of machine learning for biomedical signal analysis to support active assistive living
– support for industry and administration regarding applications of AI – Digital Innovation Hub
– biosignals estimation from thermal and visible light image sequences.

My research topics are focused on machine learning, computer vision and pattern recognition methods applied for healthcare and well-being. I am especially interested in smart methods of information extraction from image sequences and from still images. Examples include: reliable extraction of pulse rate and pulse waveform from visible light, face video, reliable extraction of respiratory rate and respiration waveforms from thermal, face video, emotion recognition based on analysis of facial (visible/infrared) image sequences. Many special research problems and questions are related to these examples. For instance: How to improve the resolution and quality of thermal images (e.g., development of super-resolution models and algorithms)? How to accurately detect facial regions like a nose, mouth in thermal images? And many others. The machine learning algorithms and models are especially useful for these purposes. From the practical point of view, I am interested how such methods could be efficiently implemented in smart glasses, smartphones, or using interactive web applications (e.g., using WebRTC) in different devices. The potential applications include remote medical diagnostics, self-diagnostics, support for tele-rehabilitation, etc.
This is also related with my interest in the development of human-system interaction methods, devices and applications. For example, a physician using smart glasses could automatically recognise a patient, collect information from available health records, measure vital signs and other parameters using a non-intrusive, non-invasive and not disturbing way. All collected data could be automatically integrated.
My interest in human-system interaction methods is also focused on the data processing methods to classify gestures. For example, we are using neural networks to classify data from small optical sensors for the effective hand gesture recognition and to provide an inexpensive touchless interface.
My other research topics are focused on colour processing in images. I am interested in the analysis of the role of colour as an information carrier, especially for colour blinded observers. Recently, I have been analysing how the popular, CNN-based, data classification models like e.g., Inception, VGG, ResNet are sensitive to colour changes, especially in the context of colour degradations related to colour-blinded people.
Finally, we are currently starting a cooperation with the BioBank in Poland (a member of the European BioBank’s network) to use machine learning methods for the processing (classification, recommendation, etc.) of multimodal medical data. First, we will focus on the classification and detections issues related to microscopic images in digital pathology.

People are ever more connected to Web. Their communication takes place in a digital space in human – Web interaction. We investigate how people spread information in Web environment by passing, sharing, commenting etc. either in original or similar form. Research focuses on trustworthiness of the spreaded information and respect for human privacy. Spreading, sharing of information should be dependable. Information, which has an inherently interactive behaviour, should be as comprehensible as possible to people – users (new interaction and visualization metaphors).

BLANCHARD, Philippe CEO Futurous SA United Arab Emirates Industry AI expert:

Over the last 10 years, a team of experts from the Olympic Movement and the mega-events industry has followed the rise of e-games and new sports and investigated how technology impacts the future of sports, competitions and disciplines. A revolution is under way and the whole ecosystem is changing: new stakeholders, new business model, new expectations from the spectators and the competitors.

The time has come to master these disruptions and technology-based innovation in order to align completely with the ways sport and international competitions are promoted, played, sold and consumed.

FIFA is the international governing body for football, the International Olympic Committee for the Olympics. We set Futurous, the international committee of innovation. This new Committee provides a unique standpoint to influence and to develop the events of the Future… bringing business, entertainment and education opportunities.

Futurous takes the responsibility of
1. Staging a global event, which will be held every odd year, in different countries and territories;
2. Engaging with sponsors, social media, broadcasters, sport and gaming entities and venture capitalists to syndicate both the financing and the resources and to promote innovation;
3. Setting and operating a comprehensive technology platform, to support the outreach, the communication and the operations of the global event,
4. Creating a global database to increase the stakeholders’ experience and return on investments.

It also stimulated our willingness to Inspire, Invent, Include, Improve & Impact. Bringing education programmes, TEDx talks and hackathons, onto the field of play between each session of the competitions.

Observing and understanding the growing hunger for data and information, simply delivered everywhere on earth to everyone on-line, we deliberately designed the complete package: inclusive sports, education and a high degree of entertainment and ‘fun’. Fans and spectators wanted “an experience”, we wanted to bring ‘education and food for thought’.

Futurous articulate the competitions in 5 Galaxies articulated around disrupting technologies:
1. IT, AI, IoT: eSports
2. Mobility technologies: drones, sustainable vehicles, autonomy
3. Haptics, sensors and mechanics : Robotics and Exoskeleton
4. AI, VR: Virtual and Mixed realities environments
5. Sports 2.0 : Classical sports revisited through technology and innovation (Artificial wave Surfing, kinetic wall climbing, wind tunnel dancing, …)

I’m a Lecturer within Computing Science and Mathematics at Stirling, and a member of the Data Science Research Group. I am also a Visiting Fellow in Civil and Building Engineering at Loughborough University. I’m interested in explainable or value-added optimisation: techniques that yield optimal or near-optimal solutions but also reveal underlying information about the problem to help people make informed decisions. My main focus is in metaheuristics, including evolutionary algorithms and estimation of distribution algorithms; related issues such as fitness modelling (and mining such models), handling constraints and multiple objectives, and decision support. I am also interested in the underlying theory of what makes particular algorithms suited to particular problems. I have applied this work to application areas including scheduling and simulation-based optimisation in civil engineering and transport, software engineering, healthcare, and art.
