SEWM'14 keynote: Mining Events from Multimedia StreamsJonathon Hare
Keynote at the ICMR 2014 Workshop on Social Events in Web Multimedia (SEWM). Glasgow, UK. 1st April 2014.
The aggregation of items from social media streams, such as Flickr photos and Twitter tweets, into meaningful groups can help users contextualise and effectively consume the torrents of information on the social web. This task is challenging due to the scale of the streams and the inherently multimodal nature of the information being contextualised.
In this talk we’ll describe some of our recent work on trend and event detection in multimedia data streams. We focus on scalable streaming algorithms that can be applied to multimedia data streams from the web and the social web. The talk will cover two particular aspects of our work: mining Twitter for trending images by detecting near duplicates; and detecting social events in multimedia data with streaming clustering algorithms. We will describe in detail our techniques, and explore open questions and areas of potential future work, in both these tasks.

We have been doing it all wrong… the idea was to gather business requirements from stakeholders, define KPIs, and create a solution design. The thing is… either your stakeholders (if client side) or clients (if agency) do not have a clue or they do not know how to properly articulate their needs. Do not ask them!
Instead, take the lead - be the expert; Show them the light; pave the way!
In this presentation, Stéphane Hamel, a recognized industry leader and author of the Digital Analytics Maturity Model, will propose a radical new approach to digital analytics.

There's a wealth of data readily available, but few people know what to do with it. Based on our 7 years of practical experience running the leading Canadian data-visualization studio and working with high-profile clients, we share practical ways to use data in design & communications, while giving an overview of the challenges & opportunities ahead.
Creatives will be interested in learning how to use data in their works, marketers will discover new ways of communicating information.
Five things you will learn:
1- How data can be used as an input in the create process
2- How data can be used in communication & public relation
3- Discover "the spectrum of visualization"
4- Learn about the challenges of working with data
5- Discover the new disciplines emerging around the usage of data

Statistical Programming with JavaScriptDavid Simons
Almost every application needs data to function - and if you don't know how to be nice to your data, then things will start to go wrong. This talk aims to convince JavaScript developers that they do need to care about statistics, and then talk about how to do so. We look at some theory and lots of case studies and real-world advice to deal with a range of scenarios.
The talk aims to touch on the entire data life cycle: We'll dive into data modelling and how the shape and size of your data affects your architecture, and how to build these architectures using JavaScript. Once the data is in the front-end, we'll touch on the wide range of libraries that allows your code to react based on the data, and the wrappers on top that aid visualisation and readability.

Geoff McGhee is the Creative Director of Media and Communications and a former John S. Knight Journalism fellow at Stanford University.
For Beyond the Black Box, University of Edinburgh, February 2017
As the datasets used by humanists become ever larger and more readily accessible, the ability to render and interpret overwhelmingly large amounts of information in graphically literate ways has become an increasingly important part of the researcher’s skillset. In this workshop, participants will be introduced to the core principles of scholarly data visualisation and shown how to use a variety of visualisation tools.
Visualisations may sound like the opposite of a black box, as they display the data provided. However, aside from 'truthiness' of things on a screen, lots of invisible algorithmic decisions affect what appears on the screen. Data used in visualisations is increasingly generated algorithmically rather than manually. What choices is software making for you, and whose world view do they reflect? Algorithms are choices - if you can't read the source code or access the learned model, how can you understand them?

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
