1. 1. Artworks as diagrams : Diagrammatic reasoning and the epistemic potential of art

   Författare :Leticia Vitral; Lars Elleström; Frederik Stjernfelt; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Semiotics; Aesthetics; Epistemology; Inquiry; Diagrammatic reasoning; Comparative literature; Litteraturvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with establishing a bridge between matters of aesthetics and epistemology, by investigating the mechanisms through which artworks allow agents to derive knowledge through the former’s manipulation. It is proposed that, in order to understand the epistemic potential of artworks, we need to approach them as diagrams, in the sense developed by Charles Peirce. LÄS MER

3. 2. An Ontological and Reasoning Approach to System of Systems

   Författare :Ludvig Knöös Franzén; Petter Krus; Ingo Staack; Christopher Jouannet; Kristian Amadori; Gerrit Muller; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Sammanfattning : System-of-Systems (SoS) are all around us and are becoming more common in today’s highly interconnected world. Systems are connected with other systems and have strong dependencies with their operational environments. This leads to an increased level of complexity and risk during product development. LÄS MER

4. 3. Bridging the Semantic Gap between Sensor Data and Ontological Knowledge

   Författare :Marjan Alirezaie; Amy Loutfi; Silvia Coradeschi; Pascal Hitzler; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Semantic Gap; Ontology; Knowledge Representation and Reasoning; Sensor Data; Informatik; Informatics;

   Sammanfattning : The rapid growth of sensor data can potentially enable a better awareness of the environment for humans. In this regard, interpretation of data needs to be human-understandable. For this, data interpretation may include semantic annotations that hold the meaning of numeric data. LÄS MER

5. 4. Towards an interlanguage of biological evolution: Exploring students´ talk and writing as an arena for sense-making

   Författare :Clas Olander; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Science education; social language; interlanguage; biological evolution; epistemology; group discussion; secondary school;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to explore what is involved when learning science, by focusing on students’ appropriation of the school science language. The aspiration is to explore relations between, on the one hand, content-oriented aspects of making sense of a specific area in school biology, and on the other hand, more generic patterns that are linked to learning in general: the influence of different social languages, and also the conceptual, epistemological, and ontological constituents of learning something.

7. 5. Specification and synthesis of plans using the features and fluents framework

   Författare :Lars O Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : An autonomous agent operating in a dynamical environment will face a number of different reasoning problems, one of which is how to plan its actions in order to pursue its goals. For this purpose, it is important that the agent represents its knowledge about the world in a coherent, expressive and well-understood way, in our case the temporal logics from Erik Sandewall's ”Features and Fluents” framework.
