SAS25 - Uncertainty

Every scientific results comes with uncertainties, even the most mundane decisions can have uncertain outcomes. Often uncertainty has a negative connotation and is in want of reduction. But we also use it for beneficiary purposes, for example by letting loved ones in the dark about our suffering. In our next SAS Conference we are interested in how uncertainty is conceptualized, quantified, transformed and coped with in science and society. We are especially interested in how uncertainty affects and is treated in computational contexts.

The conference is organized by the philosophy of computational sciences group at HLRS. We encourage submissions from areas outside philosophy and especially welcome scientists involved in interdisciplinary research.

We are very pleased to announce that this year our keynotes will be:

• Ben Recht (UC Berkeley, Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences)
• John Symons (University of Kansas, Philosophy)
• Marcus Düwell (TU Darmstadt, Ethics)

The conference fee is 100€.
