University of Alberta

Tomorrow I have my talk at the University of Alberta. Randy Goebel was so kind to make this possible and I am really looking forward to have it as part of the Artificial Intelligence Seminar. So far I had excellent discussions with all the people here; including Sandra Zilles -our DFKI-colleague- being an incredible hostess during my stay here. We discussed a lot about the challenges for Incremental Machine Learning methods if applied to the emerging Mobile Socio-Semantic Web.

Tough challenges, save rocket science!
