Cross-platform communication and context: assessing social media engagement i...
This paper will address the tools employed and the ethical, practical and methodological challenges of my research by using the Twitter data collected during the G20 2014 in Brisbane. The new computational tools developed in digital methods are really powerful on mapping Twitter conversations related to a particular topic. Nevertheless, there are still several limitations in the collection and in the analysis of the data. These methodological challenges are addressed in my research project, which aims to explore the growing of Public Diplomacy activities on social media. Indeed, according to the Twiplomacy Study (2014), the vast majority of the 193 UN member countries have a presence on Twitter and more than two-thirds of all heads of state and heads of government have personal accounts on the social network.
Yet, the study of Public Diplomacy on social media is still struggling to find an appropriate research method that is able to capture the complexity of the social media communication and assess engagement and participation. Particularly, these tasks have become challenging due to the new phenomenon of the cross-platform communication. Indeed, nowadays users share and comment news on social media, while traditional media, like TV channels and newspapers often report back what has been discussed on social media.
By analysing the Twitter data collected during the G20 2014 in Brisbane, I will describe some aspects of my methodological approach for the study of Public Diplomacy on Twitter. The paper will suggest that we need a mixed approach to comprehend the context and the cross-platform communication. To do so, tweets should be understood as units of information related to each other and visualised in the form of networks. Once key actors are found and relations among the different nodes visualised, a count of the URLs in our dataset will provide interesting information in terms of contents shared in the conversation. By manually looking at the information shared, the context of the conversation will emerge. In this sense, large datasets should be first visualised as whole and then analysed by zooming in the dataset and selecting particular interesting units, which will contain clues to understand the context and the flow of information between different platforms and websites.

The document outlines plans for an interactive online portal called NGOpen to visualize aid work data from non-governmental organizations (NGOs). It would include interactive visualizations on NGO websites hosted on NGOpen servers. NGOs could also log into the NGOpen system to maintain data and visualizations. Long-term goals include aggregating all NGO aid distribution data into a single up-to-date global map to improve aid coordination. A 7-week prototype plan for UNICEF includes visualization and data portal designs, development, and public exhibition.

This document discusses the development of a gestural instrument for computer music creation. It describes mapping gestures to musical properties like tempo, intensity and velocity. The goal is to allow computer musicians to easily improvise expression. Two gestural instruments are presented - one that maps magnitude, speed and periodicity of movement to musical intensity, velocity and tempo. The other maps hand position, baton position, movement speed and periodicity to effects like panning, vibrato, envelope and tempo. The instrument is meant to integrate with sequencers to allow computer musicians to improvise.

Joy of Goals 2010 ~ Afformations
The document discusses afformations as a new way to use positive self-talk through empowering questions rather than statements. Afformations work by planting a seed in the unconscious mind to find answers to the questions. The steps to create effective afformations are to identify a clear desire, write it as an empowering question assuming it's already true, and let the mind search for answers without waiting for a response. Using afformations can lead to feelings of calm and peace but requires consistency and avoiding self-defeating behaviors for changes to occur. Examples are provided to select an area of life to focus on and write an afformation question.

Additional resources and techniques are recommended to help de-escalate conflicts, including active listening, using "I" statements, and acknowledging others' expertise.
The data we want
This document discusses frameworks and tools for engaging with data. It examines how people search for and interact with data, including through data portals and search engines. Short queries and exploratory search are common. Metadata and summaries are important for understanding data. Data stories and sharing data on social media can help facts spread quickly. New ways to engage with data include collecting data with virtual assistants and designing surveys. Challenges include engagement, understanding expected answers, and understanding responses.

As crowdsourced user-generated content becomes an important source of data for organizations, a pressing
question is how to ensure that data contributed by ordinary people outside of traditional organizational
boundaries is of suitable quality to be useful for both known and unanticipated purposes. This research
examines the impact of different information quality management strategies, and corresponding data collection
design choices, on key dimensions of information quality in crowdsourced user-generated content. We con-
ceptualize a contributor-centric information quality management approach focusing on instance-based data
collection. We contrast it with the traditional consumer-centric fitness-for-use conceptualization of information
quality that emphasizes class-based data collection. We present laboratory and field experiments conducted
in a citizen science domain that demonstrate trade-offs between the quality dimensions of accuracy, complete-
ness (including discoveries), and precision between the two information management approaches and their
corresponding data collection designs. Specifically, we show that instance-based data collection results in
higher accuracy, dataset completeness, and number of discoveries, but this comes at the expense of lower
precision. We further validate the practical value of the instance-based approach by conducting an appli-
cability check with potential data consumers (scientists, in our context of citizen science). In a follow-up study,
we show, using human experts and supervised machine learning techniques, that substantial precision gains
on instance-based data can be achieved with post-processing. We conclude by discussing the benefits and
limitations of different information quality and data collection design choices for information quality in
crowdsourced user-generated content.

Data stories
This document discusses how to make data more engaging for the public. It suggests using games, art, and storytelling to bring data closer to people. Data needs to entertain and excite people as well as inform them. Frameworks are examined for how varying levels of participation, localization, and shareability impact public engagement with factual evidence. Tools and guidance are proposed to help communities communicate about data in inspiring ways and achieve wider civic participation. The talk considers how data interaction research can help understand how people search for, make sense of, and share data stories on social media in order to design systems that better support these tasks.
Maps and data esri health care 2012
This document appears to be a presentation given by Tom Johnson at the Esri Health Conference in Scottsdale, Arizona on August 28, 2012. The presentation discusses how data and maps inform each other, with data being used to create maps and maps then guiding the collection of additional data. It also outlines four potential types of data/analytic variables that can be studied for any phenomenon: qualitative, quantitative, geographic, and timeline of change. The presentation argues that addressing complex health issues will require transdisciplinary collaboration and going beyond the traditional three-phase process of data in, analysis, and information out.

Trust and Influence in the Complex Network of Social Media
William Rand, University of Maryland, presents at the 2012 Big Analytics Roadshow.
The dramatic feature of social media is that it gives everyone a voice; anyone can speak out and express their opinion to a crowd of followers with little or no cost or effort, which creates a loud and potentially overwhelming marketplace of ideas. The good news is that the organizations have more data than ever about what their consumers are saying about their brand. The bad news is that this huge amount of data is difficult to sift through. We will look at developing methods that can help sift through this torrent of data and examine important questions, such as who do users trust to provide them with the information and the recommendations that they want? Which tastemakers have the greatest influence on social media users? Using agent-based modeling, machine learning and network analysis we begin to examine and shed light on these questions and develop a deeper understanding of the complex system of social media.

Big data
Big data refers to extremely large data sets that are too large to be processed with traditional data processing tools. It is data that is growing exponentially over time. Examples include terabytes of new stock exchange data daily and petabytes of new data uploaded to Facebook each day from photos, videos, and messages. Big data comes in structured, unstructured, and semi-structured forms. It is characterized by its volume, variety, and velocity. Big data analytics uses specialized tools to analyze these huge datasets to discover useful patterns and information that can help organizations understand the data. Tools for big data analytics include Hadoop, Lumify, Elasticsearch, and MongoDB. Big data has applications in banking, media, healthcare, manufacturing, government, and other

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
