As a matter of fact\, today it is already changing businesses\,governmental organizations\, and educational institutions. But what is needed to make ArtificialIntelligence a valuable part of the way we do business ourselves? Many experts believe thatsuccessful Artificial Intelligence applications hinge on the so-called b-smaCt technologies(Blockchain\, Social media\, Mobile use\, Analytics\, Cloud and Things-on-the-internet or better knownas IoT). The fuelling component of those technologies is Big Data. This insight will require a wholenew set of skills and ways of working. Understanding and working with new technologies for bigdata collection\, analysis and prediction will not create only huge societal and business opportunities\,but also ethical\, legal\, privacy and technical issues concerning every part of the organization. It willinfluence customer relationships\, redefines how organizations develop new products and services\,changes how operations are organized and managed\, and provides the basis for new businessmodels and service offerings. It will demand a data driven focus of everyone involved in theorganization. \n\n\n\nThis training programme combines the science of business\, data\, and societal perspectives.Participants – who usually join with a team of 3 to 6 persons – acquire a broad knowledge and diverseskills related to data analytics\, which may lead to new insights that drive new value creationopportunities. Such learning by doing manifests itself along two dimensions: across multiple levels(individual\, group\, and corporate) and across multiple functions. \n\n\n\nSpecific dates to be announced!

Join our September edition instead! \n\n\n\nThe use of data and application of analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) will without any doubt change the way we design and operate our Higher Education. As a matter of fact\, today it is already changing our educational institutions. But what is needed to make analytics and AI valuable parts of the way we organize our education? Many experts believe that the successful transformation of our Higher Education hinges on five pillars: strategy\, hr and culture\, organisation\, governance and compliance\, ICT. \n\n\n\nThis insight will require a whole new set of skills and ways of working. Understanding and working with new technologies for (big) data collection\, analysis and prediction will not create only huge opportunities\, but also ethical\, legal\, privacy and technical issues concerning every part of the organization. It will influence the relationship with our students\, redefine how new programs and services are developed\, change how operations are managed\, and provide the basis for new service offerings. It will demand a data-driven focus of everyone involved in the organization. \n\n\n\nThis training programme combines the science of business\, data\, and societal perspectives. Participants – who usually join with a team of 3 to 5 persons – acquire a broad knowledge and diverse skills related to data analytics\, which may lead to new insights that drive new value creation opportunities in the context of higher education.

DESCRIPTION:A webinar on teaching AI to non-ICT students (MBO\, HBO\, WO) \n\n\n\n\n\nArtificial intelligence is increasingly present in society and consequently in the curricula of numerous programmes\, including the non-technical. But how do you convey a technological subject to students who have not chosen for an ICT programme? How do you inspire and motivate a public that has no intrinsic interest in AI? In this webinar João Ferreira Goncalves will tackle these questions and guide teachers who are involved in teaching AI and data technology to non-ICT students. \n\n\n\nThis webinar is organised by the AI\, data & digitalisation Convergence group of the Erasmus University Rotterdam. It is a contribution to the month of AI in education and aims to engage teachers with the topic of AI. \n\n\n\nAbout Convergence AI\, data & digitalisation:\n\n\n\nTU Delft\, Leiden University\, Erasmus MC and Erasmus University Rotterdam join forces in ConvergenceOpens external. The urgent and complex societal challenges of our time ask for fundamentally new forms of cooperation\, whereby the boundaries between institutes and disciplines are crossed to create new perspectives and solutions.

However\, due to deficiencies in survey design or lack of motivation\, some respondents may not comply with the instructions of the survey’s questions. This phenomenon is known as careless responding. Careless responding has been identified as a major threat to the internal validity of survey-based studies and should therefore be screened for (Huang et al.\, 2015). Existing methods for detecting careless responses are designed to identify respondents who respond carelessly throughout the survey. However\, recent work suggests that the longer a survey takes\, the higher the likelihood that a large proportion of all respondents will eventually start responding carelessly (Bowling et al.\, 2021). Thus\, we are interested in identifying when a respondent becomes careless (if at all) rather than trying to detect respondents who respond carelessly throughout the survey. Correspondingly\, we propose a novel method for identifying the periods of carelessness (or a lack thereof) of each respondent. The proposed method uses the deep learning technique of auto-associative neural networks (autoencoders) in combination with response times. By means of extensive numerical experiments\, we find that our proposed method achieves high reliability in correctly identifying periods of careless responding and discriminates well between careless and regular respondents. Our method seems to perform particularly well in long surveys\, which are common in psychology and health sciences\, where it is likely that a large proportion of all respondents eventually respond carelessly due to fatigue.

In this PhD workshop\, we will explore the potential of feminist approaches\, asking how AI can be informed by feminist theories\, and be used in feminist projects (Adam\, 1998). \n\n\n\nThe aims of the workshop are\, first\, to support PhDs in developing their projects through feedback and exchange; second\, to connect projects from different disciplines (computer science\, social science\, design\, humanities\, and more) and envision current and future directions of research. \n\n\n\nThe workshop takes ‘care’ as a starting point\, and explores what it means to care for each other\, including the more-than-human-world. We will work on ways to create a space where we not only exchange ideas and feedback\, but where we can also engage with the world to pay attention to and care for those marginalized and erased by hegemonic practices.
