Digital Share 2017 presentation about Linked Open Data at The Getty, starting from what LOD is, to why we're interested in it, and some of the practical approaches we're using to make it real.
To be useful, Linked Open Data requires shared identities and the reuse of their identifiers (URIs). This presentation argues that exact identity matching is both theoretically and practically impossible, and proposes some practical considerations for how to create an actual web of data.
Presented as invited seminar at UC Berkeley, February 24th, 2017
Community Challenges for Practical Linked Open Data - Linked Pasts keynoteRobert Sanderson
A call to action to discuss and agree on practical considerations around the creation, publication and discovery of linked open data about historical activities and objects.

US2TS Conference position paper on publishing and retrieving not just LOD, but LOUD -- Linked Open Usable Data.
APIs are the UIs of Developers, and need:
* Correct Abstraction level for the Audience
* Few Barriers to Entry
* Comprehensible by introspection
* Thorough Documentation with copy-able examples
* Few Exceptions, instead consistent patterns
IIIF and Linked Data: A Cultural Heritage DAM EcosystemRobert Sanderson
Presentation at DAMLA, November 15 2017, on the adoption of the IIIF image interoperability APIs across the Cultural Heritage sector for access to digital assets. How Linked Open Data then provides interoperable discovery solutions for that content.
A non-technical introduction to Linked Data, from a Cultural Heritage organization's perspective. This presentation is from the Provenance Index workshop at the Getty in 2016, with an emphasis on why Linked Data is valuable, as well as how it works in general. [Please see speaker notes for explanations of image slides]
Illusions of Grandeur: Trust and Belief in Cultural Heritage Linked Open DataRobert Sanderson
What is the notion of trust, when it comes to publishing linked open data in the cultural heritage sector? This presentation discusses some aspects with relation to three primary questions: How do we trust what was said, trust that the institution said it, and trust what it means?

Keynote presentation at JCDL 2019 at UIUC, on the interaction between standards (development and usage) and communities. Looking at Linked Open Data, digital library protocols, and evaluation of standards practices.
Linked Open Data is great for recommendations about publishing data, but we need five more stars for the consumer -- How can it be both complete and usable? Design principles for Linked Open Usable Data.
Presentation about usability of linked data, following LODLAM 2020 at the Getty. Discusses JSON-LD 1.1, IIIF, Linked Art, in the context of the design principles for building usable APIs on top of semantically accurate models, and domain specific vocabularies.
In particular a focus on the different abstraction layers between conceptual model, ontology, vocabulary, and application profile and the various uses of the data.
A recent Bersin survey pointed out that just 28 percent of organizations have “good” or “very good” levels of proficiency in basic data literacy skills. And that makes sense, because it often feels like you need a statistics degree to understand HR analytics. But the truth is, you don’t need a degree. You just need to know what to look for and how to turn that into meaningful conclusions. Degreed and Watershed are here to help.Join us for Data Fluency for Dummies.

Sanderson CNI 2020 Keynote - Cultural Heritage Research Data EcosystemRobert Sanderson
There have been, and continue to be, many initiatives to address the social, technological, financial and policy-based challenges that throw up roadblocks towards achieving this vision. However, it is hard to tell whether we are making progress, or whether we are eternally waiting for the hyperloop that will never come. If we are to ever be able to answer research questions that require a broad, international corpus of cultural data, then we need an ecosystem that can be characterized with 5 “C”s: Collaborative, Consistent, Connected, Correct and Contextualized. Each of these has implications for the sustainability, innovation, usability, timeliness and ethical considerations that must be addressed in a coherent and holistic manner. As with autonomous vehicles, technology (and perhaps even machine “intelligence”) is a necessary but insufficient component.
In this presentation, I will frame and motivate this grand challenge and propose where we can build connections between the academy, the cultural heritage sector, and industry. The discussion will explore the issues, and highlight some of the successful endeavors and more approachable opportunities where, together, progress can be made.
Facilitating Collaborative Life Science Research in Commercial & Enterprise E...Chris Dagdigian
This is a talk I put together for a http://www.neren.org/ seminar called "Bridging the Gap: Research Facilitation". Tried to give a biotech/pharma view for a mostly academic audience.
You've heard the news, Data Science is the cool new career opportunity sweeping the world. Come learn from Thinkful Mentors all about this new and exciting industry.
The first step towards understanding data assets’ impact on your organization is understanding what those assets mean for each other. Metadata – literally, data about data – is a practice area required by good systems development, and yet is also perhaps the most mislabeled and misunderstood Data Management practice. Understanding metadata and its associated technologies as more than just straightforward technological tools can provide powerful insight into the efficiency of organizational practices and enable you to combine practices into sophisticated techniques supporting larger and more complex business initiatives. Program learning objectives include:
- Understanding how to leverage metadata practices in support of business strategy
- Discuss foundational metadata concepts
- Guiding principles for and lessons previously learned from metadata and its practical uses applied strategy
Metadata strategies include:
- Metadata is a gerund so don’t try to treat it as a noun
- Metadata is the language of Data Governance
- Treat glossaries/repositories as capabilities, not technology

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.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
