Standen, P. J., Brown, D. J., Kwiatkowska, G. M., Belmonte, M. K., Galvez Trigo, M. J., Boulton, H., Burton, A., Hallewell, M. J., Shopland, N., Blanco Gonzalez, M. A., Milli, E., Cobello, S., Mazzucato, A., & Traversi, M. (2021, July). Teachers’ Perspectives on the Adoption of an Adaptive Learning System Based on Multimodal Affect Recognition for Students with Learning Disabilities and Autism. Presented at 23rd HCI International Conference, HCII 2021, Online

Adoption of e-learning for those with special needs lags that for mainstream learners. Not much is known about barriers and facilitators that drive this disparity. The present study used focus groups and interviews to collect the views of 21 t...

Comonadic semantics for guarded fragments (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abramsky, S., & Marsden, D. (2021, June). Comonadic semantics for guarded fragments. Presented at 2021 36th Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS), Rome, Italy

In previous work, it has been shown how a range of model comparison games which play a central role in finite model theory, including Ehrenfeucht-Fraïssé, pebbling, and bisimulation games, can be captured in terms of resource-indexed comonads on the...

Martin Hofmann’s Contributions to Type Theory: Groupoids and Univalence (2021)
Journal Article
Altenkirch, T. (2021). Martin Hofmann’s Contributions to Type Theory: Groupoids and Univalence. Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, 31(9), 953-957. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0960129520000316

My goal is to give an accessible introduction to Martin’s work on the groupoid model and how it is related to the recent notion of univalence in Homotopy Type Theory while sharing some memories of Martin.

Necrotic Behavioral Control of Agent Behavior in the Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Saunders, A., Ashlock, D., & Greensmith, J. (2021, June). Necrotic Behavioral Control of Agent Behavior in the Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma. Presented at 2021 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), Kraków, Poland

As the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020 illustrates, controlling the behavior of social agents is a difficult problem.
