Crowdsourcing is not a new phenomenon for museums. There are good examples for museums (e.g., Powerhouse museum, steve.museum). But not all crowdsourcing initiatives are successful. Crowdsourced tagging does not always contribute to a better understanding of art and can even be confusing.
The Rijksmuseum and the VU University Amsterdam developed the Accurator: a visual tool to get experts in domains like birds, bibles, ships, castles, etc. involved in annotating art and enrich the museums’ metadata with expertise that is not available internally.
In this how-to session, we demonstrate the tool and the ways other museums can implement this Open Web application for their own collections.
Visualization of Disagreement-based Quality Metrics of Crowdsourcing DataCrowdTruth
Crowdsourcing represents a significant source of data which needs to be analyzed and interpreted. These tasks influence the quality of the output as well as the efficiency of the process. Visualization proved to be an effective way of dealing with large amount of data. In this paper we propose a visualization analytic model in the context of the CrowdTruth framework and CrowdTruth metrics for optimizing the crowdsourcing process and improving its data quality. The requirements for the dynamic, scalable and interactive visualizations were extracted through literature and interviews with users of the framework.

Crowdsourced annotations data offers cognitive computing systems insights in lay semantics. This is especially important in health care, where medical terminology is often not aligned with patients `lay' language. However, the general crowd often has limited medical knowledge. Therefore this research investigated the opportunities of social health websites for obtaining ground truth annotations data for cognitive computing systems including clinical decision support systems. By identifying these websites and analyzing their data, it offers a starting point for the future utilization of user-generated health content for cognitive systems. However, the opportunities of social health data are currently limited by various legal regulations. Therefore this paper also dwells on the legal aspects of implementing social health data for cognitive computing systems.

Truth is a Lie: 7 Myths about Human Annotation @CogComputing Forum 2014Lora Aroyo
Big data is having a disruptive impact across the sciences.
Human annotation of semantic interpretation tasks is a critical
part of big data semantics, but it is based on an antiquated
ideal of a single correct truth that needs to be similarly
disrupted.We expose seven myths about human annotation,
most of which derive from that antiquated ideal of truth,
and dispell these myths with examples from our research.We
propose a new theory of truth, Crowd Truth, that is based
on the intuition that human interpretation is subjective, and
that measuring annotations on the same objects of interpretation (in our examples, sentences) across a crowd will provide a useful representation of their subjectivity and the range of reasonable interpretations.

Software Engineering for ML/AI, keynote at FAS*/ICAC/SASO 2019Patrizio Pelliccione
ML and AI are increasingly dominating the high-tech industry. Organizations and technology companies are leveraging their big data to create new products or improve their processes to reach the next level in their market. However, ML and AI are not a silver bullet and Software 2.0 is not the end of software developers or software engineering.
In this talk I will argument on how software engineering can help ML and AI to become the key technology for (autonomous) systems of the near future. Software engineering best practices and achievements reached in the last decades might help, e.g., (i) democratising the use of ML/AI, (ii) composing, reusing, chaining ML/AI models to solve more complex problems, and (iii) supporting for reasoning about correctness, repeatability, explainability, traceability, fairness, ethics, while building an ML/AI pipeline.

Many museums are currently providing online access to their collections. The state of the art research in the last decade shows that it is beneficial for institutions to provide their datasets as Linked Data in order to achieve easy cross-referencing, interlinking and integration. In this paper, we present the Rijksmuseum linked dataset (accessible at http://datahub.io/dataset/rijksmuseum), along with collection and vocabulary statistics, as well as lessons learned from the process of converting the collection to Linked Data. The version of March 2016 contains over 350,000 objects, including detailed descriptions and high-quality images released under a public domain license.
FAIRview: Responsible Video Summarization @NYCML'18Lora Aroyo
Presentation at the NYC Media Lab (NYCML2018). There is a growing demand for news videos online, with more consumers preferring to watch the news than read or listen to it. On the publisher side, there is a growing effort to use video summarization technology in order to create easy-to-consume previews (trailers) for different types of broadcast programs. How can we measure the quality of video summaries and their potential to misinform? This workshop will inform participants about automatic video summarization algorithms and how to produce more “representative” video summaries. The research presented is from the FAIRview project and is supported by the Digital News Innovation Fund (DNI Fund), which is part of the Google News Initiative.

Crowdsourcing ambiguity aware ground truth - collective intelligence 2017Lora Aroyo
The process of gathering ground truth data through human annotation is a major bottleneck in the use of information extraction methods. Crowdsourcing-based approaches are gaining popularity in the attempt to solve the issues related to the volume of data and lack of annotators. Typically these practices use inter-annotator agreement as a measure of quality. However, this assumption often creates issues in practice. Previous experiments we performed found that inter-annotator disagreement is usually never captured, either because the number of annotators is too small to capture the full diversity of opinion, or because the crowd data is aggregated with metrics that enforce consensus, such as majority vote. These practices create artificial data that is neither general nor reflects the ambiguity inherent in the data.
To address these issues, we proposed the method for crowdsourcing ground truth by harnessing inter-annotator disagreement. We present an alternative approach for crowdsourcing ground truth data that, instead of enforcing an agreement between annotators, captures the ambiguity inherent in semantic annotation through the use of disagreement-aware metrics for aggregating crowdsourcing responses. Based on this principle, we have implemented the CrowdTruth framework for machine-human computation, that first introduced the disagreement-aware metrics and built a pipeline to process crowdsourcing data with these metrics.
In this paper, we apply the CrowdTruth methodology to collect data over a set of diverse tasks: medical relation extraction, Twitter event identification, news event extraction and sound interpretation. We prove that capturing disagreement is essential for acquiring a high-quality ground truth. We achieve this by comparing the quality of the data aggregated with CrowdTruth metrics with a majority vote, a method which enforces consensus among annotators. By applying our analysis over a set of diverse tasks we show that, even though ambiguity manifests differently depending on the task, our theory of inter-annotator disagreement as a property of ambiguity is generalizable.
My ESWC 2017 keynote: Disrupting the Semantic Comfort ZoneLora Aroyo
Ambiguity in interpreting signs is not a new idea, yet the vast majority of research in machine interpretation of signals such as speech, language, images, video, audio, etc., tend to ignore ambiguity. This is evidenced by the fact that metrics for quality of machine understanding rely on a ground truth, in which each instance (a sentence, a photo, a sound clip, etc) is assigned a discrete label, or set of labels, and the machine’s prediction for that instance is compared to the label to determine if it is correct. This determination yields the familiar precision, recall, accuracy, and f-measure metrics, but clearly presupposes that this determination can be made. CrowdTruth is a form of collective intelligence based on a vector representation that accommodates diverse interpretation perspectives and encourages human annotators to disagree with each other, in order to expose latent elements such as ambiguity and worker quality. In other words, CrowdTruth assumes that when annotators disagree on how to label an example, it is because the example is ambiguous, the worker isn’t doing the right thing, or the task itself is not clear. In previous work on CrowdTruth, the focus was on how the disagreement signals from low quality workers and from unclear tasks can be isolated. Recently, we observed that disagreement can also signal ambiguity. The basic hypothesis is that, if workers disagree on the correct label for an example, then it will be more difficult for a machine to classify that example. The elaborate data analysis to determine if the source of the disagreement is ambiguity supports our intuition that low clarity signals ambiguity, while high clarity sentences quite obviously express one or more of the target relations. In this talk I will share the experiences and lessons learned on the path to understanding diversity in human interpretation and the ways to capture it as ground truth to enable machines to deal with such diversity.
Data Science with Human in the Loop @Faculty of Science #Leiden UniversityLora Aroyo
Software systems are becoming ever more intelligent and more useful, but the way we interact with these machines too often reveals that they don’t actually understand people. Knowledge Representation and Semantic Web focus on the scientific challenges involved in providing human knowledge in machine-readable form. However, we observe that various types of human knowledge cannot yet be captured by machines, especially when dealing with wide ranges of real-world tasks and contexts. The key scientific challenge is to provide an approach to capturing human knowledge in a way that is scalable and adequate to real-world needs. Human Computation has begun to scientifically study how human intelligence at scale can be used to methodologically improve machine-based knowledge and data management. My research is focusing on understanding human computation for improving how machine-based systems can acquire, capture and harness human knowledge and thus become even more intelligent. In this talk I will show how the CrowdTruth framework (http://crowdtruth.org) facilitates data collection, processing and analytics of human computation knowledge.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
