In the context of the first anniversary of the inaugural lecture of prof. dr. Lora Aroyo entitled “Data Science with Humans in the Loop“, Dr. Alessandro Bozzon gave a talk entitled “Weaving the Internet of People and Things for Intelligent Cities“. 

When: Friday, September 15, 2017 at 11:30.
Where: C659, FEW Building, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

The event has been organized by the Human Computation Community in the Netherlands (HComp-NL), supported by 4TU-NIRICT. The event was organized in two sessions. The first session took place on Thursday, September 14th and was specifically aimed at PhD students and postdocs, providing practical experiences on how various forms of crowdsourcing, nichesourcing, human computation and citizen science can help gather, harness and capture human knowledge at scale and thus ultimately improve machine-based systems. The session featured presentations by Alessandro Bozzon and Anca Dumitrache. The second session of the symposium presented a number of international researchers from academia and industry all working in different fields of human computation and user-generated content, including: Elena Simperl (University of Southampton), Zoltán Szlávik (IBM Benelux), and Chris Welty (Google Research). 

The presentation from Alessandro Bozzon is now available on SlideShare.
