Deadline Extended Till September 1st 2012

Mindreading, or the ability to represent and reason about the mental states of other agents and oneself, is a pervasive part of cognition that has yet to be deeply explored from a computational perspective. As a fundamental enabler for language understanding, plan recognition, cooperation, competition and moral cognition, it follows that detailed models of mental state attributions are a prerequisite for the development of a more complete theory of the human mind. This special issue seeks to promote interdisciplinary dialogue between computational cognitive modelers, philosophers, and psychologists studying the nature and operation of the human capacity to mindread. The emphasis of the issue will be placed on computational models and how they both inform and are informed by work in other disciplines. Papers on mindreading are invited from AI, cognitive, social and developmental psychology, cognitive neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy of psychology and other related discipl
 ines.

Submissions should be sent to either paul.bello at navy.mil or mguarini at uwindsor.ca by September 1st 2012.  Links to information for authors are contained in the PDF version of the call, which can be found at:

---- Apologies for multiple postings ----

Opening of a Post Doc Position at OFFIS: Human-Machine Interaction on Ship 
Bridges

The OFFIS Research Division Transportation (www.offis.de) has an open 
position for a post doc researcher on a full-time basis available 
immediately. 
The position is for 3 years with an optional extension up to 5 years. 

You will work in a European Project in the Maritime domain with leading 
scientists in the field of Human-Machine Interaction and with experts from 
the Transportation Industry. The position foresees to lead the 
international team of approx. 15 researchers from different research and 
industry organisations. The objective of the project is to research a new 
methodology for human-centred design of adaptive ship bridge systems based 
on models of distributed decision making processes of seafarers. We will 
perform a detailed investigation of decision making processes on 
(simulated and real) ship bridges in order to derive conceptual 
enhancements of an existing model architecture. The concept will be 
implemented into executable program code in order to perform model-based 
simulations of various maritime scenarios. The resulting model will be 
applied for assessment of human machine interaction (incl. workload and 
usability aspects) involving a new adaptive navigation system. Apart from 
leading the work you should contribute to the research tasks.

Our requirements: 
You should be highly motivated and possess the competence to lead a team 
of researchers. You should enjoy facing interdisciplinary challenges. As 
an application-oriented researcher you are interested in communicating and 
cooperating with industrial partners. 
We expect an outstanding M.Sc. or Diploma in Computer Science, Cognitive 
Psychology or a related discipline. An interest in, and preferably 
experience with, either Cognitive Science, Artificial Intelligence, 
Software Development and/or Safety Critical Assistance Systems are 
essential. The position has a strong focus on the management of the 
project including the management of the human modeling activities. For 
this position a completed doctoral thesis and experience in leading 
research teams is required. 

What we offer:
OFFIS is located in Oldenburg (north western Germany) - a dynamic 
university city with a distinct sense of personality and an unique quality 
of life offering many cultural and free time possibilities. Oldenburg is 
located near Bremen and Hamburg with the North Sea only few kilometres 
away. OFFIS is an institute for information technology with an 
international focus. For our employees, we offer a professionally and 
socially attractive working environment. As an academic institute, we have 
in cooperation with the University excellent opportunities for the 
development of professional and personal skills in a scientific 
environment. The salary will be dependent on the qualifications and 
performance.
For more information, please contact me via mail luedtke(at)offis.de or 
phone +49-441-9722-530.

Please submit your application including the usual documents to: 
personal(at)offis.de (and in cc to luedtke(at)offis.de) 

Thank you and best regards,
Andreas Luedtke

                   The Seventh International Workshop on 
                            ONTOLOGY MATCHING
                                  (OM-2012)
                   http://om2012.ontologymatching.org/
      November 11 or 12, 2012, ISWC Workshop Program, Boston, MA USA 


BRIEF DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
Ontology matching is a key interoperability enabler for the Semantic Web, 
as well as a useful tactic in some classical data integration tasks 
dealing with the semantic heterogeneity problem. It takes the ontologies 
as input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of 
correspondences between the semantically related entities of those ontologies. 
These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology
merging, data translation, query answering or navigation on the web of data. 
Thus, matching ontologies enables the knowledge and data expressed 
in the matched ontologies to interoperate.

The workshop has three goals: 
1. To bring together leaders from academia, industry and user institutions 
to assess how academic advances are addressing real-world requirements. 
The workshop will strive to improve academic awareness of industrial 
and final user needs, and therefore, direct research towards those needs.
Simultaneously, the workshop will serve to inform industry and user 
representatives about existing research efforts that may meet their 
requirements. The workshop will also investigate how the ontology 
matching technology is going to evolve.

2. To conduct an extensive and rigorous evaluation of ontology matching 
approaches through the OAEI (Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative) 
2012 campaign: http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2012/. 
The particular focus of this year's OAEI campaign is on real-world 
specific matching tasks involving, e.g., biomedical ontologies. 
Therefore, the ontology matching evaluation 
initiative itself will provide a solid ground for discussion 
of how well the current approaches are meeting business needs.

3. To examine similarities and differences from database schema matching, 
which has received decades of attention but is just beginning 
to transition to mainstream tools.

This year, in sync with the main conference, we encourage submissions 
specifically devoted to: (i) repeatable evaluations of the approaches proposed 
(not necessarily within OAEI) and (ii) application of the matching technology 
in real-life scenarios and assessment of its usefulness to the final users. 


TOPICS of interest include but are not limited to: 
    Business and use cases for matching (e.g., open government data); 
    Requirements to matching from specific domains; 
    Application of matching techniques in real-world scenarios; 
    Formal foundations and frameworks for matching; 
    Matching patterns; 
    Instance matching and data interlinking; 
    Large-scale matching evaluation; 
    Performance of matching techniques; 
    Matcher selection and self-configuration; 
    User involvement (including both technical and organizational aspects); 
    Explanations in matching; 
    Social and collaborative matching; 
    Alignment management; 
    Reasoning with alignments; 
    Matching for traditional applications (e.g., information integration); 
    Matching for emerging applications (e.g., linked data, search). 


SUBMISSIONS
Contributions to the workshop can be made in terms of technical papers and 
posters/statements of interest addressing different issues of ontology matching 
as well as participating in the OAEI 2012 campaign. Technical papers should 
be not longer than 12 pages using the LNCS Style:
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0
Posters/statements of interest should not exceed 2 pages and 
should be handled according to the guidelines for technical papers.

Contributors to the OAEI 2012 campaign have to follow the campaign conditions 
and schedule at http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2012/.

Subject: [ACT-R-users] Job ad : Doctoral Student Position (Decision Making)
 in Lausanne, Switzerland

Dear all,

The job ad that I sent around two days ago had a subject line that was, 
at best, misleading.
In fact, the vacant position is for a doctoral student (and not a post-doc).

Please accept my apologies.

Best regards, Ulrich Hoffrage
