CONTENT- AND SEMANTIC-BASED INFORMATION RETRIEVAL @ SCI 2002.
The document discusses approaches for enabling scalable enterprise search in a secure collaborative environment. It outlines four key building blocks: 1) Manage content by applying consistent classification and metadata; 2) Eliminate end users by addressing processes rather than user behavior; 3) Apply metadata-driven policies to protect data at risk; and 4) Identify and tag assets for storage and preservation using metadata-driven policies rather than relying on end users. The presentation provides examples of challenges organizations face with ineffective search and lack of information governance.
Intro to big data and applications - day 1Parviz Vakili
This document provides an overview and introduction to big data and its applications. It defines key concepts related to big data, including the five V's of big data (volume, velocity, variety, veracity, and value). It also discusses where big data comes from, different data types (structured, semi-structured, unstructured), and common applications of big data across different industries. Finally, it introduces concepts of data governance, data strategy, and how big data can support digital transformation.
Leveraging Knowledge Graphs in your Enterprise Knowledge Management SystemSemantic Web Company
Knowledge graphs and graph-based data in general are becoming increasingly important for addressing various data management challenges in industries such as financial services, life sciences, healthcare or energy.
At the core of this challenge is the comprehensive management of graph-based data, ranging from taxonomy to ontology management to the administration of comprehensive data graphs along with a defined governance framework. Various data sources are integrated and linked (semi) automatically using NLP and machine learning algorithms. Tools for securing high data quality and consistency are an integral part of such a platform.
PoolParty 7.0 can now handle a full range of enterprise data management tasks. Based on agile data integration, machine learning and text mining, or ontology-based data analysis, applications are developed that allow knowledge workers, marketers, analysts or researchers a comprehensive and in-depth view of previously unlinked data assets.
At the heart of the new release is the PoolParty GraphEditor, which complements the Taxonomy, Thesaurus, and Ontology Manager components that have been around for some time. All in all, data engineers and subject matter experts can now administrate and analyze enterprise-wide and heterogeneous data stocks with comfortable means, or link them with the help of artificial intelligence.
Business Intelligence: A Rapidly Growing Option through Web MiningIOSR Journals
This document discusses web mining techniques for business intelligence. It begins with an introduction to web mining and its subfields of web content mining, web structure mining, and web usage mining. It then focuses on web usage mining, describing the process of preprocessing log data, discovering patterns using techniques like statistical analysis and association rule mining, and analyzing the patterns. The goal is to understand customer behavior and improve business functions like marketing through data collected from web servers, proxy servers, and clients.
The document discusses knowledge graphs and provides examples of how Neo4j has been used by customers for knowledge graph and graph database applications. Specifically, it discusses how Neo4j has helped organizations like Itau Unibanco, UBS, Airbnb, Novartis, Columbia University, Telia, Scripps Networks, and Pitney Bowes with fraud detection, master data management, content management, smart home applications, investigative journalism, and other use cases by building knowledge graphs and connecting diverse data sources.
The document discusses a data enrichment framework that uses data mining and semantic techniques to automatically select and enrich data from web APIs. The framework aims to address issues with static data enrichment approaches by dynamically selecting sources based on data availability and source quality. It assesses attribute importance, selects sources contextually based on input data and source performance, monitors source quality over time, and adjusts source selection accordingly. The framework provides granular, adaptive data enrichment to integrate diverse data sources for tasks like customer profiling, competitive intelligence, and fraud detection.

Responsible Data Use in AI - core tech pillarsSofus Macskássy
In this deck, we cover four core pillars of responsible data use in AI, including fairness, transparency, explainability -- as well as data governance.
University Single Constituent View Repository ( SCoRe)Hemant Verma
Constituent data is the lifeblood of the universities. A constituent can play a multiple of roles such as an applicant, student, faculty, alumni, an executive education student, a doctoral candidate, a staff, and a contractor.
In today’s socially connected, in the cloud, and the Internet of Things (IoT) equipped world, a massive amount of data is generated for the constituents. This data stored on disparate systems across the university and across the campus, or across the globe, leads to a lack of a single and holistic view of the constituents.
The Single Constituent View Repository (SCoRe) enables universities to consolidate constituent data to improve operational efficiencies, lower IT costs, expand student services, increase fundraising, and enhance overall “university-for-life” experience for the students.

GDPR = General Data Protection Regulations or GDPR = Get Demand Payment Ready when your hacked or audited.
A Realistic project plan for GDPR Compliance. Another reality is the 95% not ready and even the 5% that say they are, will not like what they see in this plan in the hopes of becoming GDPR compliant.
There is just not enough time or people to get it done in the next 8 months and even if you had
2 years. This is a harsh reality and without the use of software technology and strict yet flexible, repeatable methodologies, it just won’t happen. Look at this Project plan of what needs to be done, do the math, see the complexity of data movement and code and programs needed then give us a call.
This document summarizes the key findings of a study on data security practices commissioned by Microsoft and RSA. The study found that while compliance-related data like customer information is important for companies to protect, proprietary company secrets and intellectual property are actually twice as valuable on average. However, companies devote equal portions of their security budgets to compliance as they do to protecting sensitive corporate information. Additionally, while accidental data leaks caused by employees are more common, intentional theft of secrets by employees or other parties can cost companies much more financially. The report recommends companies focus more on protecting their most valuable proprietary information rather than just compliance-related data.
The webinar discusses how structured content can be connected to taxonomies and knowledge graphs to enable more advanced capabilities like question answering. Structured content divides documents and publications into smaller chunks that can be individually tagged and linked together. Taxonomies provide consistent labels and relate concepts to each other. Representing structured content and taxonomies as linked data in a knowledge graph allows querying across documents and extracting facts to answer complex questions.

This paper has been selected and presented in the Industry track at ISWC 2012 Boston by Fabrice Lacroix – Antidot.
Unified views of business-critical information across all customer-facing processes and HR-related tasks are most relevant for decision makers.
In this talk we present a SharePoint extension that supports the automatic linking of unstructured content like Word documents with structured information from other databases, such as statistical data. As a result, decision makers have knowledge portals based on linked data at their fingertips.
While the importance of managed metadata and Term Store is clear to most SharePoint architects, the significance of a semantic layer outside of the content silos has not yet been explored systematically.
We will present a four-layered content architecture and will take a close look on some of the aspects of the semantic layer and its integration with SharePoint:
- Keeping Term Store and the semantic layer in sync
- Automatic tagging of SharePoint content
- Use of graph databases to store tags
- Entity-centric search & analytics applications
Metadata is most often stored per data source, and therefore it is meaningless outside of the silo. In this presentation, we will give a live demo of a SharePoint extension that makes use of an explicit semantic layer based on standards. This approach builds the basis to start linking data across the silos in a most agile way.
The resulting knowledge graph can start on a small scale, to develop continuously and to grow with the requirements. In this presentation we will give an example to illustrate how initially disconnected HR-related data (CVs in SharePoint; statistical data from labour market; skills and competencies taxonomies; salary spreadsheets) gets linked automatically, and is then made available through an extensive search & analytics application.
This document provides a summary of Austria's roadmap for enterprise linked data. It begins with an introduction to the PROPEL project, which conducted an exploratory study on the use of linked data in businesses from 2015-2016. Key findings include:
1) An analysis of sectors with high, medium, and lower potential for linked data adoption based on their structural characteristics and technological dynamics. High potential sectors are highly networked, data-intensive, and have embraced web technologies.
2) Interviews and a survey identified market forces driving interest in linked data, including efficiency gains, digital transformation efforts, and an increasingly data-driven global economy.
3) A review of linked data technology research trends over time
The document discusses the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) and its reference models which provide a framework to enable information sharing across government agencies in a standardized way. It describes the current lack of data integration and sharing between "stove-piped" agencies. The solution proposed is the Data Reference Model (DRM) which defines common ways to describe data that can facilitate discovery and exchange of data between agencies through metadata and exchange packages. Examples of information sharing use cases between hypothetical agencies X and Y are provided to illustrate how the DRM enables this.
Data management allows customers to ingest, process, prepare, and manage data sets through functionalities like ingestion, workflow monitoring, reconciliation, endpoint monitoring, and exception handling. The metadata hub stores and exposes metadata about enterprise data assets through robust data profiling. Quality center allows companies to validate and cleanse data through rules plugged into management workflows. Data governance controls data ownership, modification permissions, and sensitivity through a data council.
The document discusses various topics related to web mining and data mining including:
- Web mining techniques like web content mining, web usage mining, and web structure mining.
- Common data mining techniques like classification, clustering, association rule mining etc. and how they are applied in web content mining.
- How web usage mining analyzes server log files to understand user browsing behavior and patterns.
- Classification and clustering are two popular techniques used in web usage mining, with decision trees and k-means clustering provided as examples.
The document discusses various topics related to web mining and data mining. It defines web mining as using data mining techniques to extract useful information from web data. It covers different categories of web mining including web content mining, web usage mining, and web structure mining. Popular data mining techniques for these categories are discussed such as classification, clustering, association rule mining. Other topics covered include social media mining, text mining, and applications of web mining in e-commerce.
This document discusses data science and related topics. It summarizes that data science involves deriving knowledge from large, structured and unstructured data using techniques like data mining, machine learning, and big data analytics. It provides examples of industries that use these approaches for applications such as fraud detection, sales predictions, and recommendations. The document also outlines Deteo's data science service offerings and expertise in areas like recommendation systems, machine learning, and analyzing structured and unstructured data using tools like Hadoop, R, and Python.

DataOps, the secret weapon for delivering AI, data science, and business intelligence value at speed.
Synopsis
● According to recent research, just 7.3% of organisations say the state of their data and analytics is excellent, and only 22% of companies are currently seeing a significant return from data science expenditure.
● Poor returns on data & analytics investment are often the result of applying 20th-century thinking to 21st-century challenges and opportunities.
● Modern data science and analytics require secure, efficient processes to turn raw data from multiple sources and in numerous formats into useful inputs to a data product.
● Developing, orchestrating and iterating modern data pipelines is an extremely complex process requiring multiple technologies and skills.
● Other domains have to successfully overcome the challenge of delivering high-quality products at speed in complex environments. DataOps applies proven agile principles, lean thinking and DevOps practices to the development of data products.
● A DataOps approach aligns data producers, analytical data consumers, processes and technology with the rest of the organisation and its goals.
Office 365 : Data leakage control, privacy, compliance and regulations in the...Edge Pereira
The document discusses various topics related to governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) tools in Microsoft Office 365. It begins with an agenda that includes data loss prevention, eDiscovery, auditing, document fingerprinting, and encrypted emails. It then provides background on why organizations invest in GRC and the types of records commonly exposed in data breaches. The document goes on to explain key GRC capabilities in Office 365 like data loss prevention, eDiscovery tools, auditing features in SharePoint, and options for encrypting emails. It emphasizes the importance of controls and policies for customers to maintain compliance. Overall, the document provides an overview of GRC solutions in Office 365 and how customers can leverage built-in tools and
KPMG performed research on the FTSE 350 constituent companies to analyze their cybersecurity vulnerabilities from publicly available information on corporate websites and documents. They found that over 53% of corporate websites were supported by outdated and vulnerable web server software. On average, they identified 3 potential vulnerabilities per company. They also found companies leaked sensitive internal information through metadata in documents, including an average of 41 usernames and 44 email addresses per company. Certain sectors like utilities leaked the most internal usernames. The report concludes that companies should minimize publishing unnecessary information and better protect sensitive employee accounts and roles to reduce cyber risks.

Open Source Contributions to Postgres: The Basics POSETTE 2024ElizabethGarrettChri
Postgres is the most advanced open-source database in the world and it's supported by a community, not a single company. So how does this work? How does code actually get into Postgres? I recently had a patch submitted and committed and I want to share what I learned in that process. I’ll give you an overview of Postgres versions and how the underlying project codebase functions. I’ll also show you the process for submitting a patch and getting that tested and committed.
Build applications with generative AI on Google CloudMárton Kodok
We will explore Vertex AI - Model Garden powered experiences, we are going to learn more about the integration of these generative AI APIs. We are going to see in action what the Gemini family of generative models are for developers to build and deploy AI-driven applications. Vertex AI includes a suite of foundation models, these are referred to as the PaLM and Gemini family of generative ai models, and they come in different versions. We are going to cover how to use via API to: - execute prompts in text and chat - cover multimodal use cases with image prompts. - finetune and distill to improve knowledge domains - run function calls with foundation models to optimize them for specific tasks. At the end of the session, developers will understand how to innovate with generative AI and develop apps using the generative ai industry trends.
