Re: Personal facts Milton Ponson and bearing on contribution to the W3 AI-KR CG

Dear Paola,
I have over the last eight years refined my ideas about several connected themes. And eHealth, mHealth, the Internet of Things and AI in (smart) (personalized) (health) care have made me conjecture that for the IoT to work we must actually define it as the Internet of Data, Devices, DNA, Digital Agents and Domains (IOD5). DNA referring to living things and domains to physical space, cyber space, virtual reality spaces and abstract mathematical spaces.
You may remember that for the use of the IoT I in (smart)(personalized)(health) care I ventured using Quantified Human States Data standards for recording every possible physical, mental or emotional state across all forms of care and human activity which records physical, mental or emotional data.
I even checked with ISO on possible existing WGs or TCs.
The IOD5 concept and Quantified Human States Data standards would allow the creation of a framework for the ethical use of AI in (smart)(personalized) (health) care and the creation of an open uniform framework for a currently existing labyrinth of technologies and standards in health care.
If we envision smart health care to include the use of virtual reality and robots that interact with humans to assess a physical, mental or emotional state this would be a way to go.

Health care in academic discipline terms has branched out into medicine, medical imaging and medical technologies as separate academic studies, which makes the argument I make all the more compelling.

 Thank you MiltonGlad I did not bully you out of the CG with unreasonable demands
I know exactly the feeling, I too have a wide range of interests and I find it hardto balance the constant new learning and mind expansion with the getting somethingactually written. Its bridging the gap between our mental world, which can be vast and wonderful and the objective realisty of producing some intellegible output I struggle with that, but I love writing and it comes easy for me so its just a matter of disciplining myself to set some deadlines then meet them.  I teach an academic writing workshop where I use PPT/slides to create the outline of a paper each slide represents a paragraph/paper section, and contains 5 or so bullet points of what I want to say. The every day I write out the text for each slide, and within a week I have a good draft, that needs just to be edited out, so in a matter of 3-4 weeks I have a paper that  I am comfortable sharing. Provided I know what I want to say, that I have good enough content.  If the points I want to make are not clear nor alid enough, then I simply continue to read other peoples work until I refine my own contribution. That can take any amount of time, and also depends on other things that happen in your life
Regarding the misrepresentation and distraction, I would not normally be too fussyabout that, but I have seen how the semantic drift can lead to distortion whichother people, who are currently not in the picture of this exchange, some day may be able to leverage and misinterpret further  I have no idea what motivated the author of the bookto mix things up and write them down all wrongI met Irene Wu in Washington DC as she said she was researching some project I had been involved in, so I visited her office, iShe invited me to her office and gave me a cup of tea and I told her the storyof the project also shared with her the data/archives/supporting documentshttps://books.google.com.tw/books?id=Nu_cCQAAQBAJ&pg=PT30&lpg=PT30&dq=irene+wu+paola+di+maio&source=bl&ots=ivqaMQcxsb&sig=ACfU3U3YO9oNM5Kb69lzpFhnCGbAkJB7nQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjSldLY9YvnAhVpzIsBHVGmC1sQ6AEwAHoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=irene%20wu%20paola%20di%20maio&f=false  
In 2015 she published a book and she got the dates all wrong, completely distorted events and my accounts. I am still to find the time to  publish the corrections demonstrating that much of what she wrote (about me) was pure rubbish, and that the facts were inaccurate, and misleading. Now I realise that inaccuracies and imperfect data and reporting and natural language to fabricate malicious accounts are not just casual slack, they can cause ignorance and evil, in the long term, could impact the course of history. This is why I am scholar in Knowledge Representation.  So Milton, thanks for noting the issue, and I hope it wont happen again, so that I dont have to worry too much at least about being misrepresented on this list, because that can be time consuming and we have so much  exciting stuff to work onPDM

Apologies accepted and I must admit you are right. I am being distracted too much by things not related to science and the work in this AIKR CG.
I am having a hard time keeping abreast of new developments in mathematics and reading up on new interesting subjects.
A professor I met in The Netherlands familiar with Latino and Caribbean culture once warned me that to be a practicing scientist in Latin America or the Caribbean I would have to put up with only 20% productive time on a daily basis and be forced to waste 80% on things inherently wasteful as  part of the culture.
In Europe it is typically the other way around, 80% productive, 20% waste.
I thought he was joking, but he wasn't and modern technology has made no difference.
Nothing is more frustrating than to have hundreds of pages of notes and ideas and outlines for articles, and not to get to writing anything.
I apologize for not applying enough scrutiny when I write posts and in what I write at times.
Will do my best to avoid this in the future.

Guess we got that cleared up, back to work

 Hi Milton
sorry, I did not mean to put pressure on sharing your writings but ever since I rememberreading your posts, you almost always refer to some paper you are writing, and could not find any, so it would be nice to read something from you. 
I know all about having dozens of half written papers that are not ready to be shared, and I have finally learned how not to share bits of incongruent notes because people will pass judgement on them and will remember you for your scrap notes, rather than for your polished work/
Now that your mission statement is written in stratml, you may not be able to pull out that easily - please keep your candidature up and apologies
But yes, I have started seen a systematic pattern 1. your replies you distort many of my statements2. you make statements that are not true 3. you do not answer questions when I asked for some evidence(for example you wrote that I make statements about buddhism,but do not provide a link to the statement you are referencing
I have seen this happen to other lists, and to other people as wellIt's systematic 
In my experience, this is caused either by distraction (or too busy to pay attention to details)or by unconscious bias (something in your head is causing this) or sometimesby intentional manipulation (again from experience, I have been invited to make statements in the past, then my statements were deliberatelly distorted and twisted, the someone published a book containing the twisted statements to manipulate public opinion of who I and what I do. This was all calculated!). Had this not happened to me, I would not believe it possible. Now I have started noticing this behaviour is repeating from time to time
Systemic deviation is a sciencehttps://www.academia.edu/39175520/Systemic_Deviation_aka_The_Evil_in_The_Machine  

 and KR can help us track howthis science is used to cause shifts in public opinion and trigger and justify certainpolitical decisions etc.
So please Milton, accept my apologies if my rectifying false and misleading statements about what I say is inhibiting your willingness to co-chair .  we ll be happy to have you as co-chair as long as you make sure your contribution do not become deviating, accidentally or intentionally.  We need to figure out what is causing you to do this and fix it
Thankspdm

Dear all,
There seems to be some interest in my academic credentials and record of publications.
My LinkedIn profile is quite complete and leaves no doubts about the level of my academic background. There are no publications, because none have been released or ready for publication yet.
I do not fit the traditional academic mold, but then again this was never mentioned as a conditio sine qua non for having an account with the W3C or being part of a community group.
I am a Dutch citizen and carrier of a European Union passport and consequently try to structure all my scientific and innovation efforts in accordance with EU guidelines, legislation, programs and projects.
As a mathematician with a keen interest in applying math and ICT for sustainable development I have seen more than my fair share of national, global and regional failures in trying to attain sustainable development.
The European Union and the UNESCO espouse the quadruple helix approach for open and inclusive science as a driver for sustainable development.
Yet over the past four years we have seen science being virtually sidelined by populist leaders in many a developed "democratic and civilized" country.
The March for Science movement is a response to this troubling new social trend.
My Alma mater is Leiden University and its motto is Libertatis Praesidium, and it has through history stood for freedom of spirit, thought and speech and freedom of research and teaching.
I have lead a double life as a mathematician, scientist, small time entrepreneur and as an all-round activist and global advocate in a country with NO science and technology infrastructure, no science library, and with my country currently positioned on the event horizon of the black hole called Venezuela.
Under such circumstances, working in isolation, with only the Internet for peer networking, working on any subject becomes tricky, and I thank the American Skeptics Society and extensive literature about what constitutes good science and technology, that I have refrained from publishing anything so far, until I can submit my articles to a peer reviewed publication (not an option in  the Caribbean region).

When posts are submitted to this list with the header misrepresentation, mind wrecking cognitive dissonance and consistency a very fine line gets crossed

I do admit this is a valid issue in knowledge representation, but it also applies to stubborn, narrow minded and intolerant practitioners of science.
Because we as scientists and engineers are on the brink of becoming an endangered subspecies, have difficulty with communications in general to the general public, in particular with regard to issues that should be central in policy making across the globe, we can ill afford to be infighting.
In the future we will depend on academics, scholars, scientists and citizen science practitioners and engineers and people with engineering skills to build a better, new world.
AI is seen as fundamental to the science, technology and engineering needed for this new sustainable world.

I am an academic and mathematician, only now getting to writing articles under challenging circumstances, but I have a wealth of acquired knowledge which I plan to put to good use through scientific and open publications on AI and other issues.
If it makes Paola feel better and for the benefit of the AIKR Community Group I will withdraw my bid for co-chair, because I already have a 24/7/365 job in dealing with miscreants in the political, corporate and even academic community in my country bent on promoting  misrepresentation, cognitive dissonance, inconsistency and falsification of the truth, and censoring, marginalizing, stigmatizing and isolating academics, scientists and engineers .
Sapienti sat.
