Should they have defined UI? Should they have defined DB? It is subjective where to draw the line for commonplace, and it depends on the audience.

Is DAG a commonplace acronym for people attending HYTRADBOI? Maybe (I see 2 other talks mentioning graphs/trees in their title).

It costs nothing to use the full term once or twice. It can prevent confusion, and some people in the audience may not know the concept and googling a few letters is often not the best way to get useful results. Saving a couple syllables in a talk isn't worth it.
