Welcome
It is our pleasure to welcome all of you to Győr on behalf of the
organizers of the 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive
Infocommunications.
Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom) is a multidisciplinary research field that has emerged as a synergy between
infocommunications and the cognitive sciences. A key observation
behind CogInfoCom is that humans and ICT are becoming entangled
at various levels through a convergence process between these
disciplines, as a result of which new forms of cognitive capability
are appearing. Importantly, these capabilities are neither purely
natural (human), nor purely artificial; therefore, it is suggested that
they should be treated in a way that unifies both engineering and
human-oriented perspectives. As a result, CogInfoCom aims not
only to provide analyses of emergent communicative phenomena,
but also focuses on the development of new approaches and
methodologies towards the synthesis of human-ICT capabilities
based on engineering principles.
The aim of this conference is to help achieve these goals by bringing
together researchers and practitioners from relevant areas of
science and industry.
We would like to thank the track and session organizers, as well
as the many contributors for making this conference possible.
We would especially like to acknowledge the devoted support of
the members of the CogInfoCom Technical Program Committee,
and the work and effort of all members of the organization team,
without whom this conference would not have been possible.
We hope that all participants of CogInfoCom 2015 will find the
conference to be an intellectually stimulating and enjoyable event.

„Communication of information through sound: From the perception of piano touch quality to the communication of body motion qualities”
In my talk I will briefly present main results from some recent studies. The common thread is the communication of information through sound, also known as sonification. In a
first study we investigated if it is possible to recognize the touch quality of isolated piano
sounds when played staccato or legato. In a second study we investigated how participants
vary pace, sound level and timbre of own footstep sounds when asked to walk with different emotional intentions. Finally, in a third study we conducted a systematic review of
179 papers for identifying the most used mappings between physical and acoustical parameters. During the talk I will also present preliminary results of an ongoing study (part of
the H2020 ICT Project DANCE) for the sonification and communication of high-level body
motion qualities, such as smoothness and irregularity.

„Beautiful Language: (Mis)Communication and the Onset of Linguistic Conventions”
Under the heading of cognitive infocommunications may be categorized a great deal of
research predicated on the assumption that communication is generally successful. Take
the example of attention to devices -- these may be designed to extend potential for communications or studied in relation to the affordances they provide and which people exapt
for communication. In general, these increase the potential for miscommunication already
inherent in language. It is useful to study how conventions in communication behaviors
emerge, noting that the potential for communicative success is not the best explanation.

„Development and Testing of Cognitive Enhanced Endoscopic Surgical Robot”
Tendon-sheath actuation mechanism is widely used in surgical robot, especially in endoscopic surgery, due to its capable of providing remote force and action transmission
through long and flexible channel. In this talk, we report on the design and development
of an endoscopic robot based on such mechanism. The end-effectors in this case include a gripper and a electric cutter, with five and four DoFs respectively. Continuum manipulator design was adopted for the end-effectors to facilitate simple structure and good
controllability. As designed, the end-effectors are controlled via a special interface console
that allow hand and wrist movements to control the DoFs. Such operation, however, is
unnatural, and requires much training time on the surgeons. As an intuitive alternative,
this talk will report on a preliminary experimental study to use human cognition to guide
the movement of the end-effectors using IMU and EMG signals measuring the arm and
forearm motion.

„Considering a Paradigm Change in Social Cognition and Communication:
The Connected Cognitive Entity Generation at the Threshold of the Digitalized Era”
In preparing the session of the Department of Leadership and Organizational Communication at the 6th Conference on Cognitive InfoCommunications (CogInfoCom 2015), the plenary talk will point out the central aspects of a new paradigm in perceiving and conceiving
information within an embedded and connected network of so called cognitive entities. It
is claimed that the perceiving, processing, sharing and communicating of information in an
almost fully digitalized environment not only spurs complexity to an extent never encountered before but these processes also facilitate coping with digitalization and virtualization
in general. With the environment with all sorts of devices getting smarter every day, the
social individual too has to cope with this plethora of information and communicate effectively in accordance.

„From Science Fiction to Science Fact - off the shelves disruptive technologies ”
Disruptive technologies, opposed to common wisdom, are never quick born, nor fast developing. Rather, they are with us usually for several decades quietly evolving just to surprise everyone when reaching the knee of the exponential curve. This is especially true
for any technology which core is based in digital domains. Botond’s lecture will highlight a
select group of disruptive technologies which sounded Sci-Fi just a few years ago and are
on their way to be part of our daily life within less than a decade.

„Watson: The first cognitive system”
According to the terminology of IBM cognitive computing systems learn and interact naturally with people to extend what either humans or machine could do on their own.
They help human experts make better decisions by penetrating the complexity of Big Data.
The first cognitive system was Watson, which debuted in a televised Jeopardy! challenge
where it bested the show’s two greatest champions. The challenge for Watson was to
answer questions posed in every nuance of natural language, such as puns, synonyms and
homonyms, slang, and jargon. Watson was not connected to the Internet for the match. It
only knew what it had amassed through years of persistent interaction and learning from
a large set of unstructured knowledge. Newer generations of Watson are currently being
trained in oncology diagnosis for healthcare professionals, and in customer service as a
support representative. IBM Research continues to push the boundaries of Watson by developing new interfaces that will allow humans and computers to interact more naturally.

„Machine Learning and Knowledge Discovery”
9:00
E-commerce, as a shopping and marketing channel, has led to an upsurge of review sites for a variety
of services and products. In this context, Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) -i.e., mining opinions
from unstructured data about specific entities and their aspects- can help consumers decide what to
purchase and businesses to better monitor their reputation and understand the needs of the market.
We will review some of the key ideas in the field and provide real examples and key lessons on several
issues based on our three-year experience of the ABSA challenge. In another line of research, I will
describe the latest developments in Question Answering systems, aiming to find answers to natural
language questions by searching in large document collections (e.g., repositories of documents or
the entire Web) and/or structured data (e.g.,databases, ontologies). In particular, we will look at the
key methods in the biomedical QA domain and the findings from our participation in the BioASQ3
competition.

„Multimodal Imaging and Brain Network Analysis”
9:30
The traditional and the automated post-processing based multimodal imaging techniques play
crucial roles in daily diagnosis and in clinical researches, as well. Owing to a long development
process we worked out the MultiModal Medical Imaging (M3I) framework which has been applied
in several collaborations and projects in nuclear medicine, radiotherapy, radiosurgery, neurosurgery,
neuronavigation and the functional brain network analysis. During the last decade of our development
the pivotal question was whether such a type of software development is acceptable in in clinical
environment.
Overviewing these projects we clearly demonstrate that the multidisciplinary atmosphere should
improve the efficiency of any biomedical software development task and its introduction to diagnostic,
therapeutic or medical research applications. The common language between physicians, physics,
mathematics and programmers could speed up the processes of specification, development and
software maintenance. This type of informatics background enables medical research teams to apply
the recent imaging and statistical methods in their lab in relatively short time. And vice versa the
needs of new mathematical and computational methods by physicians encourage the medical image
processing specialists to use the most advanced techniques of statistics, physics and computational
science.

„Predicting reading comprehension in eLearning using eye gaze”
10:20
(Leana Copeland, Tom Gedeon and Sabrina Caldwell:
Effects of Text Difficulty and Readers on Predicting Reading Comprehension from Eye Movements)
Eye gaze detectors are becoming inexpensive, so are becoming very valuable eLearning. We describe a
number of our experiments in modeling reading comprehension. This talk includes a brief description of
the literature background, the eye gaze detectors we use, then discusses the HCI style experiments we
have conducted, and a brief description of the analysis techniques we have used. We then discuss the
results of our experiments and the (sometimes surprising) results for the design of eLearning systems.

„The significance of cognitive infocommunications in developing assistive technologies
for people with non-standard cognitive characteristics”
10:50
After an introduction to the global problems of cognitive impairments and related disabilities
and defining the key terms, the paper emphasises the significance and possibilities of cognitive
infocommunications in developing assistive technologies for people with non-standard cognitive
characteristics. The paper provides a short overall review of known approaches, and also gives concise
summaries on selected recent Hungarian research and development projects the results of which are
not yet widely known.
