‘Big Social Data’ in Context: Connecting Social Media Data and Other SourcesAxel Bruns
This document discusses big social data research and outlines a research project on analyzing data from social media and other online sources to understand public opinion formation in Australia. It aims to develop new methods for integrating large datasets from Facebook, Twitter, news websites and search/browsing data. The project will examine how news and issues spread and change in prominence over time, and how online public discussion networks form and interact across platforms. Initial findings show identifiable networks and discussion trends for different news sources and topics on Twitter.
This document discusses potential cooperation between the DM2E (Digital Manuscripts to Europeana) project and the Europeana Cloud project. It describes three case studies of tools that could help researchers find, navigate, and share information from digitized content collections: 1) The ARIADNE Finder tool helps researchers find relevant content. 2) A timeline visualization of the Wittgenstein Nachlass could help navigate that content. 3) The TiNYARM tool allows researchers to see what papers their colleagues are reading and sharing to stay aware of their work. The document seeks feedback on what content and tools would be most relevant for DM2E researchers and how the tools could be evaluated.

Digital Humanities Venice Group Presentation - Opening the Libro d'OroMichael Mitchell
This document outlines a project to create a social networking environment and standardized database for information about historical Venetians. The goal is to provide open access to data and tools for research, visualization, and education. Researchers and citizens would contribute profiles with standardized fields like name, birth/death dates, occupation, family, etc. Sources would be included for validation. Tools would allow network and epidemiological analysis. The timeline is 2 years for data collection and interface development, then maintenance. A team of humanities experts in areas like databases, design, history, and development would oversee the project with potential funding from charitable organizations. The impact would be engaging the public, adapting to research needs, aggregating sources, and visualizing history.

This document summarizes Professor Axel Bruns' research on analyzing large-scale social media data from Twitter in Australia. The research maps over 2.8 million identified Australian Twitter accounts and their follower/followee networks. It analyzes user engagement patterns around hashtags, news sites, and events. Tracking Australian Twitter activity over time provides a comprehensive dataset for understanding public discussions and responses to events in Australia.
This document proposes creating an open dataset of 600 million anonymized Swedish tweets and establishing a collaborative research center to conduct interdisciplinary studies of digital media using computational analysis. It identifies challenges of accessing commercial social media data, requiring technical skills, and enabling collaboration. Example research areas discussed include mapping information diffusion, identifying topics in shared links, measuring social media's role in constructing identity, and analyzing writing styles. The proposal seeks long-term funding to host the dataset and support technical, ethical and administrative needs.
Evaluating Data Quality in Europeana: Metrics for MultilingualityJuliane Stiller
Europeana.eu aggregates metadata describing more than 50 million cultural heritage objects from libraries, museums, archives and audiovisual archives across Europe. The need for quality of metadata is particularly motivated by its impact on user experience, information retrieval and data re-use in other contexts. One of the key goals of Europeana is to enable users to retrieve cultural heritage resources irrespective of their origin and the material's metadata language. The presence of multilingual metadata description is therefore essential to successful cross-language retrieval. Quantitatively determining Europeana's cross-lingual reach is a prerequisite for enhancing the quality of metadata in various languages.
This document discusses the history and current state of data journalism. It provides examples of early data visualizations from the 1850s. It also highlights some successful recent data journalism projects like WikiLeaks and the Swiss Leaks tax haven investigation. The document also describes how data journalism is developing in Europe and Russia, including the establishment of dedicated data journalism teams and educational resources in Russia. It concludes by providing contact information for the presenters.
The document summarizes the PoliticalMashup project, which aims to connect promises and actions of politicians with societal reactions by integrating large datasets. It discusses using text analytics and XML techniques on datasets like Dutch parliamentary proceedings and election manifestos to enable automated analysis. Example applications include search, entity linking, and detecting promises by ministers. It also outlines several areas for natural language processing research using the datasets, such as topic detection and modeling populist language.
This document provides an introduction to data journalism through definitions, examples, and resources. It defines data journalism as using data as a source for storytelling through tools like computer-assisted reporting and data visualization. It provides quotes emphasizing the importance of data skills for journalists. Resources listed include best practices from news organizations, jobs, courses, and blogs to learn more about data journalism.
This document summarizes a presentation about using semantic annotation to improve open science. It discusses a project called EUROCORR that published correspondence from Jacob Burckhardt online in an open access format. The project annotated the digital library with metadata, transcriptions, and linked open data to make the information more accessible and interoperable. It argues this can enable new ways of conducting collaborative research by allowing analysis of networks and relationships in the data. The presentation advocates open science by encouraging funding agencies to require data sharing and documenting work online to evaluate and reward new forms of contribution.
The document discusses NewsScape, UCLA's International Television News Archive. It is a collection of television news from 42 networks totaling over 211,000 hours of content from 2041 shows. The archive was originally analog recordings from the 1970s but has been digitized since 2005. It covers news from UCLA campus TV feeds as well as international sources. The archive is used for research on news coverage of events over time and in teaching, such as analyzing representation of groups in news reports. It has search capabilities for finding content by word, date, network and other filters.
This document discusses the emerging field of bibliographic data science. It provides an overview of large bibliographic datasets from national libraries and introduces research done by the Helsinki Computational History Group using these datasets. The group has developed methods to clean, standardize, and link bibliographic metadata to study topics like publishers, authors, languages, and physical book dimensions over time. Their goal is to build an open ecosystem for bibliographic data science to enable new historical research through data analysis.

This document discusses challenges related to using Twitter data for research purposes. Twitter has restrictions on the distribution and download of tweet IDs and user IDs. Researchers are limited to hydrating up to 50,000 public tweets per day. Social media collections within web archives tend to be event-driven and limited in scope. The algorithms used by Twitter to generate sample sizes cannot be verified by researchers. Storage space and sufficient computing infrastructure are also challenges. The Library of Congress has archived over 170 billion tweets but has not yet provided full access due to technical limitations.

The document analyzes tweets containing the hashtag "#SpanishRevolution" from April-May 2013 during economic/housing crises in Spain. Key findings include:
1) "#SpanishRevolution" is strongly connected to hashtags like "#15M", "#StopDesahucios", representing opposition to governing parties and social/political issues at the time.
2) Related hashtags referred to important social actors ("#15M"), calls to action ("#NoLesVotes") or metaphorically represented anti-eviction movements with colors.
3) The main discourse among #SpanishRevolution tweets centered around "#15M", "#VAEO", "#Nolesvotes" and was focused/proposed surprisingly by
The document summarizes the findings of a study on the impact of digitized scholarly resources. It describes various quantitative and qualitative methods used in the study, including webometrics, analytics, log file analysis, interviews, focus groups, and surveys. The study analyzed five digitization projects and found they had positive impacts like improving research and enabling new types of quantitative analysis. Usage varied by project, with some seeing more impact through teaching resources while others saw more impact through computational analysis of materials.
Guest Lecture: Linked Open Data for the Humanities and Social SciencesLaura Hollink
The document discusses two projects, PoliMedia and Talk of Europe, that link government data to news data as linked open data. PoliMedia links speeches from the Dutch parliament between 1945-1995 to over 1.5 million newspaper articles, while Talk of Europe publishes the entire plenary debates of the European Parliament as linked open data consisting of over 14 million RDF statements about speeches between 1999-2014. Both projects model the data as structured events that can be queried to enable complex analysis across sources and time spans.

Using Twitter as a Postgraduate ResearcherSimon Bishop
Second version of my talk. I tried to make it more focused and a better introduction. As ever, cute pictures need no explanation.
As for Up - try explaining the plot of it to someone who hasn't seen it... ridiculous, isn't it? There's no way to sell it that way, they have to see it. In the same way, to describe how Twitter works gives no indication as to its functionality. You have to play with it and learn by experience.
Slides from a practical workshop on gathering customer insights from social media using Social Network Analysis (SNA) with NodeXL and Twitter. SNA allows you to gain insight from thousands of tweets and messages on a range of topics for marketing research or academic use. NodeXL reports can be used for measuring and monitoring an organisation’s own performance as well as a competitors´ performance. At the highest level, a SNA approach allows social media managers to recognize what their audience looks like.
Researchers need to communicate their work more broadly to have greater societal impact. There are many communication channels available, including social media, blogs, and online forums. Some best practices are maintaining a policy blog like CAP Reform that provides commentary on agricultural issues, and running an online forum like Foodlog that facilitates discussion between citizens, researchers, and policymakers. As communication norms change, journals like EuroChoices may need to reconsider their business models and explore options like open access to improve accessibility and impact.
The document discusses the need to move from a model of science communication focused on dissemination of information to the public, to a model of deliberation and collaboration. It notes the status quo involves mainly informing the public of what institutions are doing, but that "prosumers" now expect a dialogue. It suggests using online tools and media to facilitate public discussion and debate around complex science and technology issues in a transparent way, in order to build trust and foster readiness for change.
PoliMedia - Analysing Mediacoverage of political debates in newspapers, radio...Martijn Kleppe
This document discusses the PoliMedia project, which aims to analyze media coverage of political debates in newspapers, radio, and television in the Netherlands from 1956-1995. The project links transcripts of parliamentary debates to articles from newspapers, radio bulletins, and television programs. It has created a portal allowing users to browse and search across these different media sources. While the portal works well, the project is limited in its ability to link to television coverage due to limitations in metadata and unclear archives. Going forward, the project seeks to improve linkages to television and enable more quantitative analyses of media coverage.

Slides from a seminar delivered for pepnet at the University of Leeds 28 Nov 2018. Thanks to Charlotte Perry-Houts for extra content:
From peer reviewed journal articles, to assorted reports and grey literature, to datasets comprising numerical, textual or multimedia files; we generate thousands of research outputs.
In this session, Kirsten Thompson (OD&PL) and Nick Sheppard (Library) will discuss strategies for increasing quality online engagement with that research. We will explore how you can use ‘alternative metrics’, more commonly known as ‘altmetrics’, to monitor such engagement. Altmetrics can help to showcase the reach of your work, supplement grant and tenure applications, identify new audiences, and connect with other researchers in your discipline.
In the age of “fake news”, academics have a responsibility to share their expertise beyond the Ivory Tower. We’ll show you how to ensure all these disparate outputs are properly curated in university repositories with a Digital Object Identifier (DOI). There will also be an opportunity to learn about and contribute to the Library led Data Management Engagement Award, a first-ever competition launched to elicit new and imaginative ideas for engaging researchers in the practices of good Research Data Management (RDM).
How altmetrics can help researchers broaden the reach of their work. Workshop facilitated by Kirsten Thompson and Nick Sheppard at the University of Leeds for the #PepnetLeeds network November 28th 2018.
A History of Social Media Listening - Simon McDermott - AttentioInfluence People
Social media listening has grown directly with the rise of online social media platforms. Early social media included bulletin boards and Usenet groups in the 1970s-80s, with Google Groups archiving posts dating back to 1981. Blogs emerged in the late 1990s and grew exponentially. In the 2000s, companies emerged to perform social media listening for clients. As platforms like Facebook and Twitter grew in the late 2000s, the business applications of listening expanded to include influencer identification, campaign impact measurement, and reputation analysis. Today, most major brands perform social media listening, and ad hoc approaches are being replaced by continual, methodological listening and analytics to guide brand monitoring, marketing, and customer service. The future includes greater integration
Tracking Social Media Participation: New Approaches to Studying User-Gener...Axel Bruns
PhD Seminar
Thursday 29 Oct., 9.30-11 a.m.
Seminar Room, Journalism & Media Research Centre, 1-3 Eurimbla St (corner High St), Randwick
The impact of user-generated content on a variety of media industries and practices is by now well understood from a conceptual perspective (e.g. Benkler 2006; Jenkins 2006; Bruns 2008). What remains less thoroughly explored is the possibility to utilise the affordances of Web 2.0 technologies themselves to generate large datasets that can be used to track and evaluate user participation practices in order to develop a solid evidence base for further research into social media, and further development of social media projects, technologies, and policies. This presentation outlines research possibilities across a number of social media spaces, and uses the example of a current research project studying the Australian political blogosphere to explore potential methodological approaches.
- Alessandro Gallo, a sales manager at Springer, discusses the history of scholarly publishing and Springer's role as a global publisher. He outlines Springer's extensive online journal and book collections available on SpringerLink.

This document provides a step-by-step demo scenario for an online news application that allows users to explore topics in newspaper articles, how frequently topics are mentioned, which topics co-occur, and images selected for articles. The application allows side-by-side comparison of topics between two newspapers or topics. Users can select a newspaper, choose a topic, and select topics, categories or image concepts to explore, seeing which topics frequently appear with the selected topic. Charts also allow selecting articles to view. The document demonstrates comparing coverage of Bernie Sanders between the New York Times and Washington Post.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark UniverseSérgio Sacani
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.
Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...Sérgio Sacani
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.
Compositions of iron-meteorite parent bodies constrainthe structure of the pr...Sérgio Sacani
Magmatic iron-meteorite parent bodies are the earliest planetesimals in the Solar System,and they preserve information about conditions and planet-forming processes in thesolar nebula. In this study, we include comprehensive elemental compositions andfractional-crystallization modeling for iron meteorites from the cores of five differenti-ated asteroids from the inner Solar System. Together with previous results of metalliccores from the outer Solar System, we conclude that asteroidal cores from the outerSolar System have smaller sizes, elevated siderophile-element abundances, and simplercrystallization processes than those from the inner Solar System. These differences arerelated to the formation locations of the parent asteroids because the solar protoplane-tary disk varied in redox conditions, elemental distributions, and dynamics at differentheliocentric distances. Using highly siderophile-element data from iron meteorites, wereconstruct the distribution of calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) across theprotoplanetary disk within the first million years of Solar-System history. CAIs, the firstsolids to condense in the Solar System, formed close to the Sun. They were, however,concentrated within the outer disk and depleted within the inner disk. Future modelsof the structure and evolution of the protoplanetary disk should account for this dis-tribution pattern of CAIs.

Photometric and spectroscopic followup with NIRCam and NIRSpec, respectively, confirm the redshift and yield UV-NIR light-curve, NIR color, and spectroscopic information all consistent with a Type Ia classification. Despite its classification as a likely SN Ia, SN 2023adsy is both fairly red (

cosmological sample, we apply a fiducial standardization approach to SN 2023adsy and find that the SN 2023adsy luminosity distance measurement is in excellent agreement (

counterparts, and to confirm that standardized luminosities nevertheless remain constant with redshift.

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

We created a linking method to deal with our two challenges:
1.How to link documents that are so different in nature?
2. Can we use the structure of the debates: people, chronologic
order of speeches, introductions to each new topic, etc?

• Compare text of candidate articles to:
• Setting 1: Named Entities in speech
• Setting 2: Named Entities + Topics in speech
• Setting 3: Named Entities + Topics in speech and larger part-of-debate
