SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept. 14, 2021 — The twin tasks of tracking the performance of sales representatives and ensuring accurate compensation have become more challenging than usual due to remote working.

Arria NLG to sponsor 14th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG 2021)

Leave a comment

The company’s leading scholars will contribute both academic and industry perspectives to the annual gathering

MORRISTOWN, N.J., Sept. 10, 2021 — Arria NLG today announced its gold-level sponsorship of this year’s International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG). Arria Chief Scientists Ehud Reiter and Yaji Sripada are serving as program co-chairs. Arria’s Chief Product Officer (CPO) Ross Turner will also participate in discussions regarding productization of NLG.

Arria NLG to sponsor 14th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG 2021)
Arria NLG to sponsor 14th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG 2021)

This is a preeminent research event to discuss and disseminate advancements in the field of natural language generation (NLG). The conference will be hosted in Aberdeen, Scotland from 20 to 24 September. Participants will present their research in virtual meetings.

In addition to world-class research presentations, this year’s conference will include workshops, tutorials, talks by invited experts, and a discussion panel: What users want from real-world NLG. The panel discussion will be led by academics currently working in industry on machine learning, NLG, and cognitive AI assistants.

While natural language generation has been established for more than 30 years, the adoption curve for NLG has accelerated. It is now seen as a foundational technology for business by analyst firms such as Gartner, who have recently recognized NLG as a core capability.

The INLG conference, which got its start in the late 1980s, has grown from being a niche academic group to a much grander scope academically and commercially.

Arria CEO Sharon Daniels said, "At Arria, we’re fortunate to have our chief scientists who keep us connected regularly to the global NLG community and its work. But this annual conference allows us to engage directly with academics on the forefront of exciting research, exploration, and innovation. We wouldn’t miss the chance to take part in INLG 2021."

Arria and its people have enjoyed being involved in INLG since the beginning. The company has sponsored the conference numerous times in the past decade, while Arria’s founders have been regular attendees for much longer.

Arria CPO Ross Turner said: "It’s exciting to see the cutting-edge research at an event such as this, and both an honour and a privilege to be able to participate. As a company building NLG products, it’s essential to keep in close contact with the wider research community. There is tremendous insight to be gained from these gatherings. It’s important for us as a company to stay in touch and keep up with what everyone is working on in order to help move the field of natural language generation forward."

For the Generation Challenges part of the conference, in which participants conduct research to answer predetermined questions regarding evaluation of NLG systems, Professor Reiter will present a paper he wrote with Craig Thomson titled Generation Challenges: Results of the Accuracy Evaluation of Shared Tasks. Reiter and Thomson will announce the results of their shared task, which took place between April and July.

You can register for the conference on the conference website.

China.org.cn: Regulating algorithms to protect your interests

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Sept. 10, 2021 — A news report by China.org.cn on China’s recent draft regulations on algorithm recommendation:

 

Here are some scenarios that most people are familiar with: Searching for products on a shopping app leads to relevant ads "magically appearing" on your social media. Or when watching short videos on your phone, you may find that they are just to your taste and you just cannot stop.

The recommendation algorithms that can "read your mind" actually expose acute problems such as privacy leaks and data security. In response, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) released the draft Regulations on the Management of Internet Information Service Recommendation Algorithms to solicit opinions from the public. The regulations include 30 points, covering rules such as those to protect minors and provide users the option to turn off recommendation services.

Nowadays, science and technology provides people with an unprecedented wealth of information and experiences. However, its unchecked and chaotic development could cause great harm. A majority of recommendations are harmless enough. But people often hear news about teenagers, who lack a mature worldview and outlook on life and values, getting injured while imitating what they see in popular short videos. If content containing smoking and drinking, violence, and distorted values are repeatedly recommended, then copied by minors, it will also result in particularly adverse consequences.

Interest-based recommendation algorithms can easily lead to users being "cocooned" and limiting their access to other information. Therefore, it’s vital to give users more choice. Lots of recommendation algorithms can induce users with a variety of content in diverse forms, ranging from product advertisements to material influencing people’s political opinions. For instance, Facebook and Google were previously accused of intensifying political polarization. If algorithms are used for improper competition, what people see and think will become presumptions of the "manipulators", which runs counter to the ideals of fairness and justice.

Nowadays, information and data security affect every aspect of everyday lives and are essential to everyone. Thus, it’s imperative that these algorithms are regulated, as is the case in every other country. On Sept. 1, the Data Security Law officially came into effect in China, aiming to better safeguard data security as well as the legal rights and interests of citizens and organizations.

In the internet age, privacy and data security issues know no borders, and so China has taken steps to explore the protection of data security. There are enough reasons to believe that a safer and more objective cyberspace can be created through the consultation and cooperation between China and the rest of the world.

Mobileum Named Sample Vendor in 2021 Gartner ® Hype Cycle™ reports titled, “Hype Cycle for Privacy, 2021” and “Hype Cycle for the Future of CSP Network Infrastructure”

Leave a comment

5G Network Security mentioned as a Key Technology as report states, "Securing 5G networks is a priority for CSPs and enterprises as the rise of private deployments, vertical applications, cloud architecture and massive IoT connections in 5G creates new vulnerabilities and challenges, such as potential DDoS attack vectors and entry points. "

CUPERTINO, Calif., Sept. 1, 2021 — Mobileum Inc. ("Mobileum"), a leading global provider of analytics solutions for roaming and network services, security, risk management, testing, and monitoring, is pleased to announce that it has been named a Sample Vendor in the 2021 Gartner reports titled,  "Hype Cycle for Privacy, 2021" [1] and "Hype Cycle for the Future of CSP Network Infrastructure, 2021"[2]. Mobileum is named in the 5G network security category.

According to Gartner, "securing 5G networks is a priority for CSPs and enterprises as the rise of private deployments, vertical applications, cloud architecture and massive IoT connections in 5G creates new vulnerabilities and challenges, such as potential DDoS attack vectors and entry points".What’s more, "security and risk management leaders managing technology, information and resilience risk consider privacy a top priority". Gartner estimates that, " By year-end 2023, 75% of the world’s population will have its personal data covered under modern privacy regulations, up from 25% today".[1]

"For CSPs to monetize more demanding 5G use cases, such as smart cities, they will need to guarantee security levels. This will require true end-to-end 5G network security spanning the core network, network slices, edge, and through to enhanced subscriber identity protection. We consider that being named by Gartner as a Sample Vendor for 5G network security category reinforces Mobileum market leadership position in telecom security and risk management space," stated Avnish Chauhan, CTO at Mobileum.

Mobileum’s Active Intelligence platform is a leading telecom-focused analytics technology that supports roaming, network services, security, risk management, and testing.  Mobileum’s network security product portfolio provides CSPs with end-to-end security and protection for 5G networks, services, and subscribers. Mobileum’s solutions enable secure interconnect between 5G networks, while ensuring backward compatibility across 5G, 4G, 3G, 2G MNO networks. The Active Intelligence platform ensures 5G network security with cross-protocol powered signaling firewalls, including SS7, GTP, Diameter, and SIP firewalls. Backed by Mobileum’s advanced analytics, penetration testing, SMS Spam Protect, and traffic anomaly detection, CSPs can detect threats before they happen, enabling them to deliver secure IoT connections, meet the higher security requirements for network slicing, and deliver 5G security demands needed for guaranteed QoS and QoE.

Colt Data Centre Services to Build New 45MW Osaka Keihanna Data Centre

Leave a comment

The new data centre in Keihanna Science City marks its fourth hyperscale facility in Japan

LONDON, Aug. 31, 2021 — Colt Data Centre Services (Colt DCS), a leading provider of global hyperscale data centre solutions, has commenced construction of its next hyperscale data centre with a ground-breaking ceremony in Japan. This 42,000m2, 45MW facility will be located in Keihanna Science City, in the Kansai area. The site will be ready to service Colt DCS customers in early 2023.

This carrier neutral and diversely connected facility will be purpose-designed to meet the scalable capacity demands of hyperscale and enterprise customers looking for large scale facilities to meet growing requirements. Following the 2011 earthquake in Japan, many companies realised the benefit of geographically dispersed sites and so there is a large demand for data centres near Osaka as an integral part of disaster recovery plans.

The facility will employ state-of-the-art cooling technologies to ensure high efficiency, while supporting Colt DCS and its clients’ sustainability targets.

The ground-breaking for this site swiftly followed the Colt DCS announcement of Fidelity’s joint venture with Mitsui to provide advanced hyperscale data centres in Japan, with potential further growth in APAC.
"Mitsui is very pleased to celebrate the ground-breaking for the first data centre project in Keihanna. Starting with this exciting project, Mitsui hopes to further strengthen our partnership with Fidelity and Colt for our JV," commented by Shinsuke Waka, GM of Financial Business Division, from Mitsui & Co.

"There has been a surge in cloud service demand throughout Japan, all of which requires carrier-neutral network access in the region, as well as disaster recovery sites," commented Quy Nguyen, Vice President, Global Accounts and Solutions. "Combined with the fact that the Kansai region of Japan has a population of around 22.4 million, generating enough GDP to position itself at the same level as the Top 20 countries, we expect this facility to be a key site for Colt DCS."

"The acquisition of this site is another stake in the ground for us, demonstrating the momentum of our hyperscale strategy and cementing our foothold in APAC," added Padraig MacColgain, Vice President, Head of APAC at Colt DCS. "This land was not originally available for purchase by a data centre operator due to Keihanna Science City being an area designated for research and development activities.  However, we received immense support from the Kyoto Prefectural authorities to help make our acquisition possible and want to thank them greatly for their support."
