MM4DM: How multimedia enrolls decision-making processes in the era of cognitive computing

Abstract

The increasing momentum towards cognitive computing unlocks a diverse set of opportunities and challenges for the multimedia research area. In fact, with a different approach from the one present in the traditional artificial intelligence systems, cognitive computing glimpses a human-machine collaboration, where a more symbiotic interaction is required. The main goal of the Multimedia for Decision-Making (MM4DM) tutorial is to discuss how the multimedia research area enrolls decision-making processes in the era of cognitive computing. In this context, this tutorial discusses topics of multidisciplinary interest, always from a multimedia perspective, aiming to inspire heterogeneous participation of researchers from industry and academia.
