Emotional Selection in Memes: Urban Legends and Mad Cow Disease
Chip Heath
Graduate School of Business, Stanford University
This talk will examine whether we can use aspects of individual
psychology to understand which cultural memes succeed in the
"marketplace of ideas". We examine two cases where ideas seem to
succeed in the marketplace of ideas based on emotional selection
(i.e., a meme's ability to evoke emotions like anger, fear, or
disgust). If ideas undergo emotional selection, then truth need not
win out in the marketplace of ideas: In the case of urban legends,
many of the ideas that succeed are false, and in the case of Mad Cow
disease, the ideas that succeed are, at the very least, exaggerated.
In the work on urban legends (with Chris Bell and Emily Sternberg) we
explore how much urban legends succeed based on emotional selection
and on informational selection (i.e., truth or a moral lesson). We
focus on the emotion of disgust because it is the least intuitive form
of emotional selection and its elicitors have been precisely
described. In Study 1, controlling for informational factors like
truth, people were more willing to pass along stories that elicited
stronger disgust. Study 2 randomly sampled legends and created
versions that varied in disgust; people preferred to pass along
versions that produced the highest level of disgust. In Study 3, we
coded legends for individual story motifs that produce disgust (e.g.,
ingestion of a contaminated substance); legends that contained more
disgust motifs were distributed more widely on urban legend web sites.
We discuss implications of emotional selection for the social
marketplace of ideas.
I'll also talk about some work in process with Marwan Sinaceur on Mad
Cow disease in France. We show that the fear-inducing emotional
label, "mad cow," is much more pervasive than its less-emotional
scientific equivalent, "bovine spongiform encephalopathy" in popular
newspapers, and we also show that the prevalence of the emotional
label in newspaper articles has a more dramatic correlation with
behaviors like beef consumption and legislative activity than the
rational label-even though the articles where the emotional label
appears are, in many ways other than the label, less emotionally
arousing than the articles where the rational label appears.
About the speaker: Chip Heath is an Associate Professor of
Organizational Behavior at the Stanford Graduate School of Business.
His research interests include: how ideas are selected in the social
marketplace of ideas and how people can intervene strategically to
affect what ideas are selected, how people's theories affect the
solutions that organizations use to address agency problems and
coordination problems, and decision making by individuals and
organizations. http://gobi.stanford.edu/facultybios/bio.asp?ID=245

Quine on Modality
Dagfinn Follesdal
Philosophy, Stanford
Quine had a very critical attitude to the modalities. Between 1941
and 1961 he put forth a number of arguments against the modal notions.
He found them unclear and argued that attempts to clarify them tend to
move in small circles. In particular he regarded them as
ontologically obscure, and he claimed that the modal notions, like the
analytic/synthetic distinction, depend on a wrong-headed conception of
the relation between language and the world. However, modal logicians
continued their work without being much bothered by Quine's criticism.
In my talk I will survey Quine's arguments, and discuss their
soundness. I shall trace the development of his view and discuss the
consequences of his view for notions of reference, essentialism and
individuation.

Towards Computational Media: Metadata for Media Automation and Reuse
Marc Davis
School of Information Management and Systems, UC Berkeley
Over the past five hundred years, we have seen the development of
technologies and social practices that enable the educated populace to
read and write text. However, with video (including motion pictures
and television), millions of people "read" it everyday, but very few
are able to effectively "write" it. The changing of this asymmetry
will require research and innovation that more intimately integrate
video and computation. This presentation will address the theoretical
issues, core technologies, and applications that will enable video to
become a computational data type that people can easily create,
access, share, and reuse. Specifically, the research challenge is to
develop technologies that create metadata about the semantic content
and syntactic structure of video, and that use that metadata to
automate the production and reuse of video. Addressing this challenge
also requires a methodology that interleaves the construction and
analysis of artifacts and theories, and that combines ideas and
technologies from multiple disciplines: information science, computer
science, film theory and production, media studies, and human-centered
user interaction design.
About the speaker: Marc Davis is an Assistant Professor at the School
of Information Management and Systems at the University of California
at Berkeley. His work is focused on creating the technology and
applications that will enable daily media consumers to become daily
media producers. Prof. Davis' research and teaching encompass the
theory, design, and development of digital media systems for creating
and using media metadata to automate media production and reuse.
Prof. Davis earned his B.A. in the College of Letters at Wesleyan
University, his M.A. in Literary Theory and Philosophy at the
University of Konstanz in Germany, and his Ph.D. in Media Arts and
Sciences from the Media Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology. At the MIT Media Laboratory, he developed Media Streams,
an iconic visual language for annotating, retrieving, and repurposing
digital video. From 1993 to 1999 at Interval Research Corporation, he
led research and development teams in automatic media production
technology for which a patent was awarded in 2001. From 1999 to 2002,
Prof. Davis was Chairman and Chief Technology Officer at Amova, a
developer of media automation and personalization technology.
Prof. Davis is a co-founder of Narrative Intelligence Reading Group,
which innovated interdisciplinary work at the intersection of literary
theory, artificial intelligence, and media technology. Prof. Davis
was also an invited contributor to the 50th Anniversary Edition of the
Communications of the ACM, for which he wrote a vision piece about the
next 50 years of media technology. http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/~marc

Conversational Interfaces:
a Domain-independent Architecture for Task-oriented Dialogues
Alexander Gruenstein
Computational Semantics Lab, CSLI
This paper motivates and describes a generic interface for dialogue
enabling intelligent agents and devices for task-oriented dialogue.
The interface is designed to be a mechanism by which a dialogue
front-end can quickly and easily be adapted for use with a wide range
of devices or agents. The Conversational Intelligence requisite for
participating in a large range of important task oriented dialogues is
identified and decomposed in a modular, device-independent fashion and
a specialized recipe scripting language is implemented to encode
device-specific information. The recipes in the recipe library
compiled from this scripting language are instantiated at run time
into Activities, which may be executed by the device (and jointly, by
the human operator). In addition, a novel Constraint Management System
is implemented in order to exploit the features of natural language
which allow humans to naturally expand and restrict the permissible
sets of parameters that a particular activity may take on.
The following is an example of the sorts of dialogue supported by the
system. (O = human operator, S = an autonomous helicopter):
O: Always fly high and fast please.
S: Okay.
...[intervening dialogue]...
O: Fly to the school at low altitude please.
S: Just a minute...I am supposed to always fly high. Should I fly to
the school at low altitude anyway?
O: Yeah.
S: Okay. Now flying to the school at high speed and low altitude
...[intervening dialogue]...
O: Deliver the medical kit to the police station please.
S: Delivering the medical kit to the police station conflicts with
flying to the school. Should I deliver the medical kit now or
later?
O: Do it now.
S: Okay. I have suspended flying to the school. Now flying to the
hospital.
O: Why are you flying there?
S: Because I am picking up the medical kit.
O: Why?
S: Because I am transporting the medical kit from the hospital to the
police station.
About the speaker: Alexander Gruenstein is at CSLI's Computational
Semantics Lab, where he works on the WITAS project to create
multi-modal conversational interfaces for activity-based dialogues.

Bioethics and the Normative Concept of Human Selfhood
Ludger Honnefelder
University of Bonn
Honnefelder is an important and influential German philosopher with
strong interests in metaphysics, who subsequently developed a lively
interest in bioethics. At Bonn University he founded a department of
Biomedical Ethics and also a German Reference Center for Ethics in the
Life Sciences.
As an expert on bioethics Honnefelder is a member of the Council of
Europe's Steering Committee for Bioethics, also a member of the
European Academies Standing Committee on "Science and Ethics", and a
member of the corresponding commission for the German parliament:
"Law and Ethics of Modern Medicine."
In addition to publishing in the area of bioethics, Honnefelder plays
an influential role in the formulation of European public policy in
these areas. His perspective on the subject is very different from
that of most American academic philosophers, so the talk/discussion
promises to be stimulating and lively.

Modeling and Inference of Dynamic Visual Processes
Stefano Soatto
UCLA
"We see in order to move, and we move in order to see." In this
expository talk, I will explore the role of vision as a sensor for
interaction with physical space. Since the complexity of the physical
world is far superior to that of its measured images, inferring a
generic representation of the scene is an intrinsically ill-posed
problem. However, the task becomes well-posed within the context of a
specific control task. I will display recent results in the inference
of dynamical models of visual scenes for the purpose of motion
control, shape visualization, rendering, and classification.
About the speaker: Stefano Soatto received his Ph.D. in Control and
Dynamical Systems from the California Institute of Technology in 1996.
He joined UCLA in 2000 after being Assistant and then Associate
Professor of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering at Washington
University, and Research Associate in Applied Sciences at Harvard
University. Between 1995 and 1998 he was also Ricercatore in the
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of
Udine, Italy. He received his D.Ing. degree (highest honors) from the
University of Padova, Italy in 1992. Dr. Soatto is the recipient of
the David Marr Prize (with Y. Ma, J. Kosecka and S. Sastry of U.C.
Berkeley) for work on Euclidean reconstruction and reprojection up to
subgroups. He was awarded the Siemens Prize with the Outstanding
Paper Award from the IEEE Computer Society for his work on optimal
structure from motion (with R. Brockett of Harvard). He also received
the NSF Career Award and the Okawa Foundation Grant. For more

Extending Publish-Subscribe with Relational Subscriptions
Rob Strom
IBM Research
Traditional publish-subscribe systems simply deliver to subscribers
all messages published on a particular topic or all messages meeting a
particular filtering criterion. If messages are lost, or if the
subscriber is intermittently connected, a more reliable "guaranteed
delivery" quality of service guarantees the eventual ordered delivery
of all messages.
An alternative paradigm is to view a subscription as a request for a
particular state derived from the published messages -- i.e. a
continuous query. What is delivered to the subscriber is not
necessarily the published message stream, but the updates to the state
he is interested in. Now if messages are lost, then after recovery,
the system can deliver the new state rather than a possibly large
number of messages. This paradigm also allows subscribers to
subscribe to derived events that are a function of summaries of
message histories.
We discuss an exploratory effort in IBM's Gryphon publish-subscribe
system to extend our reliable messaging protocols to support
"relational subscriptions." We introduce a Relational Subscription
Language (RSL), adapted from relational algebra, but based upon
monotonic base relations and a monotonic type system. We discuss how
monotonic type analysis allows an efficient "mostly push-based"
implementation that combines timely delivery with scalability and
fault-tolerance.
About the speaker: Rob Strom has been a Research Staff Member at the
IBM TJ Watson Research Center since 1977. His main research interests
have been in programming languages, distributed systems, and
optimistic algorithms. He is known for the design of Hermes, one of
the earliest languages to simultaneously support type-safe
multi-threaded multi-component applications, and of Optimistic
Recovery, an efficient technique for transparent recovery of
applications in a distributed environment. Rob's latest research
interest has been in highly scalable distributed publish-subscribe
systems. His latest research concerns applying techniques from
incremental continuous queries of relational databases to the
implementation of fault-tolerant messaging systems.

We will be showing three short films that examine the philosophical
implications of technology for personal identity.
"To Be" (1990, director:John Weldon, Canada, 10 minutes, animated).
Through a fast-paced story of a young woman confronting an eminent
scientist and his mind-boggling invention, this animated film explores
the nature of personal identity and the moral issues relating to
advances in science and technology.
"The Man Who Believed in Body Transplants" (1989, producer: David
Filkin, UK, 30 minutes). Interviews with neurologist Robert Joseph
White on how he justified the nature of his brain transplantation
research.
"Personality Software" (1990, director: Sylvie Fefer, Canada, 8
minutes, animated). People improve their personalities with diskettes
which fit into custom-made drives cut into their heads.

Web Design that interacts with the
Psychological Complexity of a User's Goals
Paul Whitmore
E*Trade
The developing discipline of user-centered design has required certain
idealizations. The notion of the "user's conceptual model" is a key
abstraction; by directing designers' attention to actual cognitive
processes, technology can be adapted to anticipate and support the
fallible and limited minds. These minds are often called "users."
I have long been interested in the complexities underlying real
people's attempts to interact with technology. Not only are they
fallible and finite-information-processors; they frequently lack a
clear articulation of their intentions and may have real problems when
asked what they are trying to accomplish. My research examines the
cognitive and emotional issues that face people at the moment they are
asked to make their goals explicit, and the ways that explicit
articulation can interfere with complete access to the true complexity
and range of a person's values and aspirations.
By understanding these complexities, designers can undertake slight
but powerful modifications in the way that they identify and support
the personal goals of real people.
About the speaker: Paul Whitmore is currently the User Interface
Visionary at E*Trade. He works with designers, data-miners, and
marketing professionals. This presentation combines his doctoral
research with industry experience. While at Stanford, he interned at
Xerox PARC in the User Interface Research Group. Recently, he has
started the BAYCHI Apprenticeship Program, which offers workshops to
help bridge the divide between academic and industry preparation.
