| 04.05.2021 | Information Warfare in the Financial Domain: Problems and a few Solutions |
Disinformation and manipulation campaigns are frequently carried out on social media with the aim to mislead and to influence online crowds. In order to be successful, each campaign must spread to and “infect” a large number of users. This often mandates large coordinated efforts, as well as the use of bot and troll armies, for the campaign to obtain significant outreach, to exert influence, and to have an impact. |
| 27.04.2021 | Business Model Design in Process Industries: Recent Trends and Future Research |
In this lunchtime seminar, Stephan speaks about his recent research on business models and discuss how digital technologies fundamentally change how firms in process industries, such as chemicals and pharmaceuticals, create, deliver, and capture value in concert with transaction partners. |
| 20.04.2021 | The inevitability of misclassification in media recommender systems |
The abundance of user generated or user submitted media content on modern social media platforms makes algorithmic curation of content more or less inevitable. The precise principles governing the recommender systems are usually opaque, but the goals behind the optimiziation process are transparent: Factors like engagement, dwell time or watch time are optimized for because these measures translate into monetizable usage time, thus directly affecting the financial bottom line of said... more |
| 13.04.2021 | The New Logic of Design: Autonomous Design Tools and Video Game Production |
In this lunchtime talk, Stefan Seidel speaks about a stream of research that investigates how autonomous design tools shape the nature of design work. These tools generate outcomes with little or no user intervention and produce designs of unprecedented complexity and originality. They fundamentally revamp how organizations will design and innovate in future. Stefan will highlight (1) the relevance of this emergent phenomenon, (2) conceptual lenses to study this phenomenon, and (3) some... more |
| 09.02.2021 | Digital Community Currencies: Opportunities and Best Practices |
Community currencies are alternative currencies, which enable the mobilization of local resources for local needs and building resilient communities. They allow community members to perform economic transactions like buying products and paying for services using an alternative currency as a medium of exchange. For decades, regional, paper-based community currencies have been in use across the world. With the advent of the digital age, community currencies are increasingly moving into the... more |
| 02.02.2021 | Enterprise Process Security Architecture – a security-by-design approach for postal operators |
Supply chain security deals with the protection of supply chain assets (people, equipment, facilities etc.) against threats from theft, smuggling and sabotage. That comprises management and design activities in order to ensure an effective integration of security into the organization’s landscape. This talk presents a security-enhanced business process modelling notation based on BPMN that supports the explicit modelling and evaluation of security elements. |
| 26.01.2021 | mlr3 - A new framework for machine learning with R |
I'll give a short introduction to the 'mlr3' package (<https://mlr3.mlr-org.com>) for modern, state-of-the-art machine learning in R.

| 12.01.2021 | Lunchtime Talk: Process Science |
The first Lunchtime-Seminar in 2021 will be about “Process Science”. Process science, as introduced in a keynote at the BPM 2020 Conference in Sevilla for the first time, is an exciting new field of science, which is about the interdisciplinary study of processes aiming to understand, influence and design the evolvement of processes. The talk explains why it is timely and important to establish process science as an individual field. Also, a theoretical foundation for process science is... more |
| 15.12.2020 | CLAIRE: Challenges for Creating a Unified European AI Community with a Human-Centred Focus |
The Confederation of Laboratories for Artificial Intelligence Research in Europe (CLAIRE, https://claire-ai.org) is an organisation created by the European AI community that seeks to strengthen European excellence in AI research and innovation with a strong focus on human-centred AI. CLAIRE aims to ensure that societies and citizens across all of Europe, and beyond, benefit from AI as a major driver of innovation, future growth and competitiveness, and to... more |
| 08.12.2020 | Big Satellite Data: Opportunities and Challenges |
Machine learning techniques aim at extracting knowledge in an automatic manner and have been identified as one of the key drivers for future discoveries and innovation in in this field. Processing and analyzing the massive amounts of data can, however, still become extremely challenging from a computational perspective. The presentation will cover some of our current research activities that are related to this line of research. In particular, I will sketch the potential of modern deep... more |
