Artificial Intelligence (AI) is widely used in society today. The (mis)use of biased data sets in machine learning applications is well?known, resulting in discrimination and exclusion of citizens. Another example is the use of non?transparent algorithms that can’t explain themselves to users, resulting in the AI not being trusted and therefore not being used when it might be beneficial to us…
It is impossible to talk about human cognition without talking about concepts—there simplyisno human cognition without concepts. Concepts form an abstractionof reality that is central to the functioning of the human mind. Conceptual knowledge(of e.g., APPLE, LOVE and BEFORE) is crucial for us to categorize, understand,and reason about the world. Only equipped with concepts and words for them …
We are in the midst of a revolution. For centuries science has made great strides in our understanding of the external observable world. Physics revealed the motion of the planets, chemistry discovered the fundamental elements of matter, biology has told us how to understand and treat disease. But during much of this time, there were still many unanswered questions about something perhaps even …
rtificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to address some of the biggest challenges in education today, innovate teaching and learning practices, and ultimately accelerate the progress towards SDG 4. However, these rapid technological developments inevitably bring multiple risks and challenges, which have so far outpaced policy debates and regulatory frameworks. This publication offers gui…
Data Science for Wind Energy provides an in-depth discussion on how data science methods can improve decision making for wind energy applications, near-ground wind field analysis and forecast, turbine power curve fitting and performance analysis, turbine reliability assessment, and maintenance optimization for wind turbines and wind farms. A broad set of data science methods covered, including …
Artificial intelligence (AI) permeates our lives in a growing number of ways. Relying solely on traditional, technology-driven approaches won't suffice to develop and deploy that technology in a way that truly enhances human experience. A new concept is desperately needed to reach that goal. That concept is Human-Centered AI (HCAI). With 29 captivating chapters, this book delves deep into the r…
Many human mental activities such as writing computer programs, doing mathematics, engaging in commonsense reasoning, understanding language, and even driving an automobile are said to demand "intelligence." Over the past few decades, several computer systems have been built that can perform tasks such as these. Specifically, there are computer systems that can diagnose diseases, plan the synth…
