Title: Dr Inventor: Promoting Scientific Creativity by Utilising Web
Abstract: Scientific creativity and innovation represent seen as the beating heart ofEuropean growth at a time of rapid technological change. Dr Inventor is built on the vision that technologies have great potential to supplementing human ingenuity in science by overcoming the limitations that people suffer in pursuing scientific discovery. It presents an original system that will provide inspiration for scientific creativity by utilising the rich presence of web-based research resources. Dr Inventor will act as a personal research assistant, utilising machine-empowered search and computation to bring researchers extended perspectives for scientific innovation by informing them of a broad spectrum of relevant research concepts and approaches, by assessing the novelty of research ideas, and by offering suggestions of new concepts and workflows with unexpected features for new scientific discovery.
Prof. Wei Chen

Title: Challenges for visualization in Data Technology (DT) Era
Abstract: Nowadays big data brings us unprecedented opportunities for resolving problems that traditional approaches are not competent and building the next generation IT systems. Despite that data visualization has been applied for many fields, there remains many challenges. First, data analysis typically search known patterns from data. How to predict unexpected information remains a challenging problem. Second, despite many well-established software, toolkits and systems, a comprehensive visualization scheme and strategy that is adaptable to varied tasks and datasets is demanded. However, a general visualization software or system is impractical. Thus, we need to first standardize a visualization and visualization design. The standardization requires further revolutions for effectively improving the effectiveness and efficiency of visualization. Third, urban data is connected to cyber-and-physical spaces. To address practical problems in urban management and security, a suite of schemes are demanded for realizing urban data visualization.
Prof.Robert S Laramee
Robert S Laramee received a bachelors degree in physics, cum laude, from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst (ZooMass). He received a masters degree in computer science from the University of New Hampshire, Durham. He was awarded a PhD from Vienna University of Technology (Gruess Gott TUWien), Austria at the Institute of Computer Graphics and Algorithms in 2005. From 2001 to 2006 he was a researcher at the VRVis Research Center (www.vrvis.at) and a software engineer at AVL (www.avl.com) in the department of Advanced Simulation Technologies. Currently he is an Associate Professor in Data Visualizaton at Swansea University (Prifysgol Cymru Abertawe), Wales in the Department of Computer Science (Adran Gwyddor Cyfrifiadur). His research interests are in the areas of big data visualization, visual analytics, and human-computer interaction. He has published more than 100 peer-reviewed papers in scientific conferences and journals and served as Conference Chair of EuroVis 2014, the premiere conference on data visualization in Europe.

Title: Visual Analytics for Big Video Data
Abstract: With advancements in multimedia and data storage technologies and the ever-decreasing costs of hardware, our ability to generate and store evermore video and other multimedia data is unprecedented. YouTube, for example, has over 1 billion users. However, a very large gap remains between our ability to generate and store large collections of complex, time-dependent video and multimedia data and our ability to derive useful information and knowledge from it. Viewing video and multimedia as a data source, visual analytics exploits our most powerful sense, vision, in order to derive information, knowledge and gain insight into big multimedia data sets that record complicated and often time-dependent events. This talk presents a case study of state-of-the art visualization and visual analytics techniques applied to video multimedia in order to explore, analyze, and present video data. In this case, we show how glyph-based visualization can be used to convey the most important information and events from videos of rugby games. The talk showcases some of visualizations strengths, weaknesses, and, goals. We describe inter-disciplinary case-study based on rugby sports analytics, where visual analytics and visualization is used to address fundamental questions-the answers of which we hope to discover in various large, complex, and time-dependent multimedia data.

报告题目：人机交互在数字遗产中的应用
报告摘要：人机交互技术是计算机用户界面设计中的重要内容之一。它与认知学、人机工程学、心理学等学科领域有密切的联系。我们在面向自然体感的交互环境中，建立融合行为感知、用户意图理解和多模态呈现等情境的人性化交互基础理论和方法，解决多源输入条件下用户状态的感知、用户交互意图的推断等难点问题。从分析和处理表情、手势以及姿态等多种用户行为，研究新型的人机交互技术来支持虚实场景中多用户多模态的自然交互。
我们围绕新疆兵团特色文化遗产传播的虚拟展示系统建设为目标，在突破传统展示模式下，利用多模式呈现、增强现实、虚拟交互等关键技术的基础上，集成多种显示与交互模式，搭建面向用户驱动的媒体内容展示研发平台，为基层公共文化服务数字化技术应用提供技术集成及展示技术的系统解决方案。研究成果可用于国内兵团文化、农耕文化的展示设计中，并将以平台展示模式用于博物馆，形成公益和服务的产业模式。

报告题目：兵团文化遗产的精神价值
报告摘要：兵团在60多年的发展中形成了全国独一无二的文化特色，得天独厚的文化遗产资源，兵团文化是兵团屯垦戍边实力的重要内容，是兵团屯垦戍边事业的重要组成部分。
60多年来，兵团始终奉行着不与民争利的信条，在塔克拉玛干、古尔班通古特两大沙漠的周围和2019公里的边境线上，开垦出1600万亩良田，建起14个生产建设师、185个团场和石河子、五家渠、北屯、阿拉尔等一大批美丽的兵团城镇，创造了人类开发史上一个又一个奇迹。兵团文化遗产的形成与发展，是一种超越农耕文明，又异于工业文明的独特文化，那一望无际又统一耕作的田垄，机械化与信息化交融的生产方式，一地一特产的特色经济，就是其卓越物质文化的标志性符号。一种先进的组织制度，
兵团文化遗产是社会主义优秀文化的重要组成部分，兵团有丰富的文化资源。主要表现在：一是兵团文化是新中国独有的文化资源；二是兵团文化产生在特殊时期，兵团文化是在特殊历史条件下形成的特殊的人文资源；三是兵团文化与新疆地域文化、民族文化的互补性。兵团文化是中华民族优秀文化的鲜活的展现，不仅存在着，而且在不断地发展着、丰富着，引领人们为履行屯垦戍边服务。
