This document summarizes Reem Weda's presentation on connecting the Iconclass thesaurus and the Art & Architecture Thesaurus (AAT) through their concepts and keywords. Weda analyzed mappings between Iconclass keywords and AAT concepts, finding around 35% matches initially and 50% when using additional tools. Connecting the thesauri in this way through linked open data could provide multilingual access to AAT descriptions and disambiguate Iconclass keywords. However, exact matches are limited by Iconclass' standardized but not strictly conceptual keywords and language variations between terms.
The document provides information for a request for proposal to catalog and digitize the collection of a living artist. It includes background on the artist's 150 paintings and photographic documentation process. It outlines the current organization of materials, and proposes a three-phase digitization and cataloging project to create digital surrogates and item-level records. A timeline, staffing roles, equipment, methodologies, and conceptual model are presented.
The Art & Architecture Thesaurus as a LOD standardReem Weda
Here are some ways to deal with linking errors in Linked Open Data:
- Perform regular quality checks on links and revise as needed. Automated link validation can help detect errors.
- Clearly distinguish between certain and uncertain links. Qualify links with confidence scores or provenance information.
- Allow links to be disputed and corrected through community feedback and review processes.
- Version control datasets so errors can be tracked and addressed over time. Retire outdated links rather than deleting them.
- Aggregate links from multiple sources and resolve conflicts to determine best links. Crowdsourcing can also help.
- Design applications and queries to be fault-tolerant of some erroneous links through techniques like redundancy.

Rem Koolhaas is a renowned Dutch architect and founder of OMA, known for visionary projects that push architectural boundaries. Some of his notable works include the Netherlands Embassy in Berlin, Seattle Central Library, and the controversial CCTV headquarters in Beijing, which features a dramatic looped form suspended between two leaning towers. Koolhaas aims to find new synergies between architecture and culture through experimental designs that interrogate functions and embrace contradictions. While pioneering, his radical forms are not without criticism for disregarding aesthetics and cultural context.

ICT.Open Clustering Cultural Heritage Objects Using Linked DataChris Dijkshoorn
This document discusses using linked open data to cluster and search cultural heritage collections. It describes how the Rijksmuseum annotates its collection of over 1 million objects using crowdsourcing. Experts in niche topics help annotate items. Linked data is used to connect objects by properties like creator, subject, and related terms. This enriched data powers a graph search algorithm to cluster related objects and find paths between them. The system was demonstrated in a touch interface app for exploring the collection.
Zaha Hadid was an influential Iraqi-British architect known for her deconstructivist style. She was the first woman to receive the Pritzker Architecture Prize. The London Aquatics Centre she designed for the 2012 Summer Olympics had a large roof that arched over the pools like a wave. Its innovative design allowed it to accommodate many spectators during the Olympics and fewer after in legacy mode. The roof was made of steel and the walls were concrete, achieving Hadid's vision of fluid, dynamic spaces through complex geometric forms.

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC CharlotteCori Faklaris
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

29. Structure of the AAT
AAT is organized for general use
FAQ: why aren't terms organised like I expect them to be. Why aren’t
communion cups and chalices narrower terms to church plate?
Broader term:
drinking vessels
Broader term:
liturgical vessels
The AAT's organization stresses function and form over the context in
which an object is used
The AAT links concepts to an alternate parent using polyhierarchical
relationships
Communion cups
30. Definition of ‘thesaurus’
• A semantic network of unique concepts
• Thesauri may be monolingual or multilingual
• Thesauri may have the following three relationships:
• Equivalence Relationships
• Hierarchical Relationships
• Associative Relationships
ISO 25964 – the international standard for thesauri and
interoperability with other vocabularies
32. Hierarchy leading to ‘hacienda’
Hierarchical Position:
Objects Facet
.... Built Environment (hierarchy name) (G)
........ Built Complexes and Districts (hierarchy name) (G)
............ complexes (buildings) (G)
................ <complexes by function> (G)
.................... agricultural complexes (G)
........................ haciendas (G)
Note: Large Spanish landed estates common to 17th century Seville
used as farms, or ranches. Also applies to Spanish-American estates
and the main building of such a complex.

36. Dutch AAT translation
• RKD handles translation of Getty AAT
• We have translated 36.0000 of the now 43.000 concepts in
the Getty AAT.
• There is a difference in content between the Dutch and the
American AAT, in number of concepts but also scope notes
and hierarchy can differ.
• Reason: work continues on both sides and we don’t have a
regular way of exchanging data yet (perhaps soon). We strive
to make the difference as small as possible. Soon we’ll work
in an updated version.
New concepts via the editorial group and then send to Getty
Vocabs.
Slow process.. But recently the 600th concept was added!
39. Getty web service
• The base URI is http://vocab.getty.edu/
• SPARQL-endpoint
• Standard presentation is SKOS or SKOS-XL
• Mappings and ontology based on RDF/XML and Turtle
• Published versions of lookup lists e.g.,languages, roles,
nationalities, place types, and bibliographic sources)

RKDartists Open Search is een afgeleide set persoonsgegevens van de uitgebreide dataset RKDartists& . Dit is een database met biografische gegevens van zo’n 300.000 Nederlandse en buitenlandse kunstenaars van de middeleeuwen tot heden. Het &-teken geeft aan dat daarnaast ook kunsthandelaren, kunstverzamelaars en kunsthistorici zijn opgenomen in deze database. RKDartists& wordt door veel kunsthistorische erfgoedinstellingen gebruikt als geautoriseerde namenlijst (authority file) bij het ontsluiten van hun eigen collecties.
Zo kunt u bijvoorbeeld over de beroemde Paulus Potter een uitgebreid record vinden met kunsthistorische gegevens. In de Open Search ziet dat er zo uit.
