TITLE:
How to Build a Human-Machine Collaboration
SPEAKER:
Leslie Blaha, Kris Cook, Corey Fallon, Jon Suter
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
ABSTRACT:
In an effort to continue exploring unique connection points on research areas of mutual interest between LAS and PNNL, we are excited to welcome a team of scientists and engineers to LAS on Wednesday, September 26th to present a WRM titled “How to Build a Human-Machine Collaboration”. In addition, the PNNL team will be available before and after the WRM for further discussion on how research may align with emerging LAS challenge and application areas.
THERE WILL BE DONUTS! ☺ Come and have fun! It’s informal!
How to Build a Human-Machine Collaboration
Effective collaboration between humans and machines is necessary to help operators and analysts make sense of and solve problems with big data. Through a number of efforts, PNNL is advancing the theories, architectures, and technologies for developing solutions and systems to support human-machine collaboration. In this presentation, we will review some challenges to human-machine collaboration that inspire our work. We will discuss what it takes to develop a strong, appropriately calibrated team. We will demonstrate advances in mixed-initiative technologies that data find analysts. We will discuss advances in human-machine interaction and interactive machine learning, working toward systems learning from their users to better support collaboration and decision making.
