Altmetrics: the movement, the tools, and the implicationsKR_Barker
Measuring scholarly impact has traditionally been tied to the calculation of a scholarly article’s number of citations and the Impact Factor of its journal. Today, however, scholarly contributions take many forms: computer code, data sets, blog postings, tweets, practice guidelines and beyond. As the products of research evolve, so will the way in which credit is measured. This class will provide an overview of “altmetrics”, the movement to assess influence of both traditional and non-traditional scholarly contributions. We will define altmetrics, discuss why it is important in today’s digital scholarly environment, and demonstrate tools available to measure influence. After completing this course, the learner will be able to define altmetrics and compare it to traditional forms of measuring scholarly impact; name examples of scholarly contributions that are alternatives to traditional methods (e.g. datasets, blog postings, tweets, etc.); name examples of alternative means of measuring scholarly contributions (e.g. download counts, tweets about, etc.); discuss why today’s online, social environment necessitates a change in the way scholarly contributions are measured; name resources to learn more about altmetrics such as altmetrics.org; and name tools to measure alternative scholarly contributions such as Altmetric.com, Impact Story, Plum Analytics, etc.
When it comes to communication, telling stories with images and video has a power few other mediums have. These engaging and increasingly shareable visual mediums can articulate your organization’s vision, promote your programs and initiatives, and move people to action.
In this webinar, the fifth session in the latest 21st Century New Media Series from CALPACT and CHL at UC Berkeley's School of Public Health, join Mike Lawson from Diabetes Hands Foundation, and Dana Howard from Covered California, as they share their best practices for using images and video to strategically advance diverse advocacy, health promotion, and health education goals.

Uw Digital Communications Social Media Is Not SearchMarianne Sweeny
I had the pleasure of speaking to one of the Digital Communication classes at the University of Washington on my favorite topic, why social media will never replace search as an information finding medium. Those students were wicked smart and I walked away learning a lot myself.
The power of the modern Web, which is frequently called the Social Web or Web 2.0, is frequently traced to the power of users as contributors of various kinds of contents through Wikis, blogs, and resource sharing sites. However, the community power impacts not only the production of Web content, but also the access to all kinds of Web content. A number of research groups worldwide explore what we call social information access techniques that help users get to the right information using “collective wisdom” distilled from actions of those who worked with this information earlier.
Social information access can be formally defined as a stream of research that explores methods for organizing users' past interaction with an information system (known as explicit and implicit feedback), in order to provide better access to information to the future users of the system. It covers a range of rather different systems and technologies from social navigation to collaborative filtering. An important feature of all social information access systems is self-organization. Social information access systems are able to work with little or no involvement of human indexers, organizers, or other kinds of experts. They are truly powered by a community of users. Due to this feature, social information access technologies are frequently considered as an alternative to the traditional (content-oriented) technologies. The goal of this tutorial is to provide an overview of the emerging social information access research stream and to provide some practical guidelines for building social information access systems.

When Sandy made landfall in New York and along the New Jersey shoreline, the storm itself had already devastated islands in the Caribbean and moved along the eastern seaboard causing damage in coastal states along the way. In a much similar manner, the tweet stream about the storm ebbed and flowed and moved along with it. So that by the time the storm struck New York and New Jersey, the Twitter data stream was already heaviy with talk about its impact and its approach to the northeast.
Finding sense in a tweet storm is sometimes like trying to hold back the storm itself. The magnitude of the data that emerges in social media is only equal to the number of questions asked about information needs, situational information and the integrity of that information.
Accurate analysis of data using standardized statistical methods in scientific studies is critical to determining the validity of empirical research [source]. But in the emerging paradigm of the use of social media during disaster, there is little in terms of documented good practices for data collection and analysis. What facts can be derived from the data? Is the data ‘good’ enough to analyze? What types of questions or statistics can be applied in a manner that would allow ongoing empirical research for future events against past events. But today, we are very pleased to release the report Analysis of Twitter Data during Hurricane Sandy. The report provides a unique snapshot about the tweets emerging in the initial days just before and after the storm made landfall in New York.

Here's my presentation on Google Analytics development (via Google Tag Manager) that I gave at SuperWeek 2015, in January.
The presentation goes through two interesting use cases for making data more meaningful: Page Visibility as a requirement for Page Views, and Enhanced Ecommerce for Content Tracking.
Content Analytics - The Whys And Hows For Google AnalyticsSimo Ahava
These are my slides from SMX München 2016. Content engagement is a tricky thing to measure, especially how it changes over time, but in this article I give some ideas for how to enhance your content measurement process within your organization.
The next version of JavaScript, ES6, is starting to arrive. Many of its features are simple enhancements to the language we already have: things like arrow functions, class syntax, and destructuring. But other features will change the way we program JavaScript, fundamentally expanding the capabilities of the language and reshaping our future codebases. In this talk we'll focus on two of these, discovering the the myriad possibilities of generators and the many tricks you can pull of with template strings.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
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.

and google analytics and
our own donation database
• What is your project? An experiment in pro-actively engaging with our donors on twitter
over a period of 4-6 months
• Where are you in implementation or design? Still designing tools and forming test groups.
33. Action Learning Project: Pick One Tool to Share
• Name of the tool/ Free or Paid tool?
• Argyle Social
• What do you like about this tool?
• It tracks most of the metrics I want for twitter
• What data points does it collect that help you
understand whether your reached your goal or match
your KPI?
• Applause rate (clicks on urls in posts)
• Amplification rate (RTs)
• Conversation rate (replies)
34. Inside Argyle Social’s dashboard
In theory, you can see all the info you want on a per-post level:
• Applause rate (clicks)
• Amplification rate (RTs)
• Conversation rate (replies)
• Donation rate ($ - questionable accuracy.)
35. Argyle Social’s downloadable reports (not as helpful!)
For some reason the data dump is not as helpful. It’s not at a per-post level anymore,
and there are no click rates available in data download.
I still have to do a lot with this manually to get it into the form I want.

37. Action Learning Project: Peer Tool Share
Organization Name: Community Foundation Santa Cruz County
Action Learning Project: Philanthropy 831 Blog
Where are we? We have a communications (and blog) strategy and a content
curation calendar. We’re blogging weekly and are now working to refine tracking
methods and a simple dashboard for reporting.
38. Action Learning Project: Peer Tool Share
Organization Name: Community Foundation Santa Cruz County
Action Learning Project: Philanthropy 831 Blog
Goals (from Jan 1 to June 15) KPI Tools

Analytics, Hootsuite
& Website
39. Action Learning Project: Philanthropy 831 Blog
Primary Tool(s): Free Analytics (Google, Feedburner, HootSuite
and website’s blog page)
Why? Easy to use, rich data and free. We think it makes sense
(and not too much) to look at all four sources above, not just
one.
Data Points we’ll track: Subscriptions, Traffic flow (Where did
they come from?), Visitors and Page Views and
Comments/Ratings (What did they do when they got here?)
and Clicks (Where did they go?).
How we’ll organize: Create customized dashboard that
aggregates this data and measures engagement.
40. Action Learning Project: Philanthropy 831 Blog
Our plan is to customize the data collection from Google Analytics on a
page like this and aggregate it with the other analytics in a simple
dashboard coming soon! We promise.

Because this is our first call, I’m going to run down the names of the organizations and have everyone say their name – so we can hear each other’s voices. I won’t be doing this for every call – we will get into grove where you should arrive 5-10 minutes early and announcement yourself. If you arrive after the call is underway, let us know you are hear by using the chat.

Here’s a little bit about me – blogger, author, trainer.A lot of my work lately has been designing and facilitating peer learning networks about becoming networked nonprofits and social media– the photo there is a cluster of Packard Fdn. Grantees that focus on family planning … I was in Delhi in June for the start up – an intensive boot camp, followed by remote assistance. There’s were great lunches there, so to avoid people falling asleep … I made them move. The hotel had beautiful three story staircase and they had do laps … so if you do training – incorporating movement and interaction helps people learn and we’re going to do a lot of that today!

SMART OBJECTIVE 1: Increase blog visibilitySMART OBJECTIVE 2: Increase value of our content to readersSMART OBJECTIVE 3: Increase community engagement with our postsWe want our blog to become the core of a engaged community of scientists who are committed to science outreach and engagement with the media and policy worlds. Specifically, we want more traffic, more subscribers, an increased number of commenters, and other evidence of a strengthened connection between these researchers and our team, and among the researchers. We hope they come for the content and stay for the community. This project directly supports our mission of helping scientists build the skills & relationships they need to effectively share their knowledge in broader social conversations.We are most keenly interested in engaging academic scientists in the environmental sciences. Grad students bring deep enthusiasm and energy, early career researchers can speak from recent personal experience on the tenure-track career, and mid-career and senior researchers have the authority and resources to make change within their institutions. Their social media use varies greatly, but part of our role in developing our network is to support greater familiarity with online conversations. For a sizeable number of scientists, we were their first real introduction to social media. For a small number of them, we continue to be a main conduit to that worldList Your Metrics:• Visibility:o % increase in average weekly unique pageviewso % increase in Twitter followers• Value:o % increase in subscriptionso % increase in RTs on Twitter• Engagement:o % increase in comments on blogo % increase in @ mentions on Twitter
SMART OBJECTIVE 1: Increase blog visibilitySMART OBJECTIVE 2: Increase value of our content to readersSMART OBJECTIVE 3: Increase community engagement with our posts
This is our full ladder of engagement.For this project, we’ll be focusing on the first rung – the outcomes & KPI shown in blue.Once we’ve gone through a full month or so of publishing and measuring, we’ll use the data analysis (from “create” + some “consume”) to refine our editorial calendar & process As soon as we’re ready, we’ll move to the “Amplify” phase and incorporate Twitter & email subscription drives into the content creation processAll along, we’ll be looking for evidence of engagement, application of our content, and sharing as noted above.
