7 - 11 January 2019, "Lean together", workshop on the Lean proof assistant, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Date: 7 - 11 January 2019
Location: Amsterdam, The Netherlands

From 7-11 January next year there will be a workshop on the Lean proof assistant at the Free University in Amsterdam.

The workshop will include introductory tutorials, scientific talks, and collaboration time for developers and users. Tutorials will be aimed at a mathematically experienced audience with little background in formal methods. Presentation topics may include (but are not limited to) the development of formal theories and libraries, tools and automation for formalization, the use of proof assistants in mathematics and computer science education, translating between formal and informal mathematics, and theoretical aspects of proof assistants. We welcome relevant work in proof assistants other than Lean. Participants who are interested in giving a talk or running a tutorial or discussion are asked to contact the organizers

14 January 2019, ILLC New Year's Colloquium 2019

Date & Time: Monday 14 January 2019, 16:00-17:15
Location: ILLC Common Room, Room F1.21, Science Park 107, Amsterdam

The ILLC Colloquium is a half-yearly festive event (either the New Year's Colloquium, the Midsummernight Colloquium or the Midwinter Colloquium) that brings together the three research groups at the ILLC. Each colloquium consists of three main talks by representatives from the Logic and Language group, the Language and Computation group and the Logic and Computation group, which are occasionally followed by Wild Idea Talks. The colloquium is concluded by a get together of the entire ILLC community.

For more information, see http://www.illc.uva.nl/ILLCColloquium/ or contact Christian Schaffner at .

17 January 2019, ILLC Meeting on ICT Facilities

Date & Time: Thursday 17 January 2019, 16:00-17:00
Location: ILLC, room F1.15, Science Park 107, Amsterdam

We are planning a meeting to discuss ICT facilities available to people at ILLC. In particular, we would like to make an inventory of
what is available now and to whom. And we wish to discuss if this is
enough, or if more is needed. And if so, what exactly.

For more information, contact Peter van Ormondt at .

18 January 2019, Dutch Social Choice Colloquium

Date & Time: Friday 18 January 2019, 13:30-18:00
Location: Maasstricht

Speakers: Kristof Bosmans, Bettina Klaus, Flip Klijn, Jordi Massó, Ton Storcken.

21 - 25 January 2019, Syntax Meets Semantics 2019 (SYSMICS 2019), Amsterdam, the Netherlands

Date: 21 - 25 January 2019
Location: Doelenzaal, University Library, Singel 425 Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Deadline: Friday 19 October 2018

Substructural logics are formal reasoning systems that refine classical logic by weakening structural rules in a Gentzen-style sequent calculus. Traditionally, substructural logics have been investigated using proof theoretic and algebraic methods. In recent years, combined approaches have started to emerge. The programme of the SYSMICS conference will focus on interactions between syntactic and semantic methods in substructural logics. This conference is the last of a series of meetings planned in the SYSMICS RISE project during 2016-2019.

25 January 2019, LUNCH Seminar, Catholijn Jonker

Date & Time: Friday 25 January 2019, 13:00-14:00
Speaker: Catholijn Jonker (TU Delft)
Title: Shared mental models in the context of Explainable AI
Location: ILLC Common Room (F1.21), Science Park 107, Amsterdam

Shared mental models in the context of Explainable AI

Explainable AI is receiving a lot of attention these days. This is fantastic and important given the increasing use and impact of artificial intelligence, in particular Machine Learning. I think I have been working on Explainable AI for many years now, and I have always approached this from a Knowledge Representation point of view in which Shared Mental Models (and Team Mental Models) have played a big role. I would like to discuss this with you and come to some joint insights as to their possible roles in Explainable Machine Learning.
