| The group DIB-LACAM is headed by Prof. Floriana Esposito, full professor of Knowledge Engineering and Expert Systems and Chair of the Faculty Members of the Computer Science Curriculum, and carries out research spanning from Knowledge Acquisition to Machine Learning with the aim of improving Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Main research activities are: · machine learning methods and systems based on symbolic and numerical approaches, integration of numerical representations through first-order logic for the development of reasoning techniques under uncertainty, methods and systems for automatic revision of logic theories, with particular attention to the maintenance of knowledge bases and object-oriented databases, through inductive techniques; · intelligent decision systems for help to decisions, expert systems for automatic manipulation of documents and for the interpretation of cartographic maps; intelligent systems for digital libraries; · multimedia and multimodal human-computer interaction, visual languages, visual query systems for knowledge bases, with particular attention to the study of theoretical aspects related to the formal definition of the communication languages and paradigms for data and knowledge representation, Web interfaces, user modelling methods for the development of adaptive interfaces, usability of interactive systems; · intelligent tutoring systems. | Via F.
