Tactile Sensing: New Directions, New Challenges

Over the past three decades, tactile sensing has developed into a sophisticated technology. There has been a longstanding and widely held expectation that tactile sensors would have a major impact on industrial robotics and automation. However, this promise has not been realized, and few, if any, tactile sensors can be found in factorybased applications. Has this technology failed to deliver it...

Intelligent Tutoring Systems: New Challenges and Directions

Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) is the interdisciplinary field that investigates how to devise educational systems that provide instruction tailored to the needs of individual learners, as many good teachers do. Research in this field has successfully delivered techniques and systems that provide adaptive support for student problem solving in a variety of domains. There are, however, other ...

Statistical Disclosure Control: New Directions and Challenges

Traditionally, statistical agencies generally release outputs in the form of microdata and tabular data. Microdata contain data from social surveys and tabular data contain either frequency counts, such as for census dissemination, or magnitude data typically arising from business surveys, eg. total revenue. For each of these traditional outputs, there has been much research on how to quantify ...
