Open Images: Culture is lively, when it is reused!
The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision (NISV) manages over 70% of Dutch audiovisual heritage in its collection, including over a million hours of television, radio, music and film from 1898 to present. NISV aims to make as much of its collection publicly available online as possible under various open licenses, while obtaining permissions for material with third party rights. Its Open Images platform shares over 150 hours each of video and audio openly online, which has been reused over 160 million times on Wikipedia and elsewhere, though this represents only 0.03% of NISV's total collection.
Hacking Culture into Open Data
This document discusses how Dutch cultural heritage institutions ("GLAMs") have successfully reached millions of people each month through Wikimedia projects like Wikipedia. It notes that 29 Dutch GLAMs contribute content like photos, artworks and recordings to Wikimedia Commons. Currently over 54,000 unique objects from Dutch GLAMs are reused over 110,000 Wikipedia pages, generating over 155 million page views in a single month. By openly sharing their digital collections, Dutch GLAMs have helped educate audiences of hundreds of millions about Dutch cultural heritage each year through Wikimedia.
Exploring Audiovisual Archives through Aligned Thesauri
Slides for the presentation given at the MTSR 2016 conference in Gottingen, Germany for the paper "Exploring Audiovisual Archives through Aligned Thesauri" by Victor de Boer, Matthias Priem, Michiel Hildebrand, Nico Verplancke, Arjen de Vries, and Johan Oomen.
In this paper, we present a case study where partial
collections of two audiovisual archives (Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision and VIAA) are connected by aligning their thesauri. We report on the conversion of one of the thesauri to SKOS and on the subsequent application of an interactive alignment tool CultuurLINK. Finally, we introduce an cross-collection browser which uses the produced alignment to allow users to explore connections between the two collections.
Approaches and Issues to Online Audiovisual Archives
Presentation about the EUscreenXL and Europeana Sound projects. Given at the Transnational Radio Encounters Workshop #1 at EBU, Geneva.
EUscreen MW2012 Demo
The document summarizes EUscreen, a Best Practice Network funded by the European Commission to provide access to Europe's television heritage. The network includes 27 partners such as archives and technology providers. It aims to contribute 35,000 television items to Europeana with consistent metadata based on EBUcore. The network develops tools to facilitate accessing, commenting on, embedding, and remixing television content from European archives.
The current status of TDM in Europe
This document summarizes a presentation given by Jeannette Frey on LIBER and text and data mining (TDM) in Europe. LIBER represents over 400 research libraries across Europe and advocates for open science. The presentation discusses LIBER's support for open science, a LIBER statement on open science, and a factsheet on TDM. It also covers the EU's Digital Single Market strategy and how TDM supports its goals. The presentation argues that exceptions for TDM should be mandatory to enable data-intensive research and the free flow of ideas.
Sound Connections pilot @ Europeana Creative Culture Jam 2015, VIenna
Lizzy Komen from the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision presented the "Sound Connections" social networks pilot. The pilot allows communities to explore and enrich sound collections from several cultural institutions through a social networking platform. Partners in the pilot include the British Library, Historypin, Ontotext, and the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. The pilot connects thousands of audio tracks from each institution. Users can tag and comment on sounds, and cultural institutions receive notifications about user contributions. Historypin has extended the platform by allowing other institutions to host collections and by increasing scale through projects on the First World War Centenary Hub.

Contribution as part of the SXSW 2014 panel "100 Years of Oversharing: Tools for Time Travel" - http://schedule.sxsw.com/2014/events/event_IAP21645 @johanoomen
A typed journal from WWI passed on through generations fuels a young man's dreams of time travel and allows us to explore the power of personal stories and photos. Together with archival collections, these items take us through space and time, and the magical ability of cultural memory institutions to help individuals bring these incredibly compelling dreams to life. The World Wide Web provides the cultural, technological, and legal frameworks to open the doors to innovation and imagination, and also enables libraries, archives and museums the world over to play a critical role. We explore some of the diverse efforts to bring stories and memory to life in new ways, while also fostering open data and preservation, and the pros and cons at the intersection of public domain and private enterprise.

MediaDNA
This document summarizes the MediaDNA project, which investigates emerging fingerprinting technologies to help uncover relationships between disparate audiovisual materials. The project brings together a network of organizations to apply these technologies for public use and digital humanities research. The goals are to help search collections, understand how content circulates online, and stimulate public engagement with cultural heritage. Challenges include scaling the technologies beyond proof of concepts and addressing issues of privacy and control of online content.
Crowdsourcing Descriptions for Nature Recordings
Maarten Brinkerink and Johan Oomen (Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision, NL) will talk about Waisda?, an open source video labeling game framework developed by Sound and Vision[3], which is currently being developed further in the context of Europeana.[4] Sound and Vision has collaborated with several public broadcasters in the Netherlands to enable fans of certain programmes to contribute fine-grained description of this content. In the latest edition called ‘Spotvogel’ (Mockingbird) Sound and Vision collaborated with the nature TV programme ‘Vroege Vogels’ (Early Birds, by the VARA) to mobilize the online community around the programme for identifying flora, fauna and locations within specific segments of the broadcasts. To support the tagging of the flora and fauna the game utilized a controlled vocabulary that is maintained by Naturalis. Players are awarded points when their tag entries match with other players, and they can score bonus points for using ‘professional’ terms from the controlled vocabulary. Players can also earn badges for certain achievements within the game, for instance for identifying a certain number of birds. Up until now the game managed to gather over 240,000 tags.

Europeana Sounds kick-off - Workpackage 2 Enrichment and Participation
The objective of this workpackage is to support discovery and use by improving metadata through innovative methods including semantic enrichment and crowdsourcing. It coordinates the design and implementation on mechanisms to improve the quality of existing metadata and contextual information. This will support enhanced exploration, deepen understanding of the collections, and will increase end-user engagement. Significantly increase quality of existing and new Europeana metadata for audio and audio-related items though: (a) active participation with existing audiences; (b) machine-driven tools.
Specific goals
• Offer tools for metadata tagging and contextualisation to the wider community. This will (1) increase quality and user satisfaction in terms of content discovery; (2) promote increased engagement between institutions and their audiences.
• Apply semantic web technologies to enable enrichment of the Europeana Sounds collections. This will increase quality of the metadata and user satisfaction in terms of content discovery.
• Collaborate with Wikimedia chapters in Europe to add contextual knowledge on the Europeana Sounds collection. Six edit-a-thons (campaigns that aim to create wiki pages on focussed areas) will be organised in year two and three of the project. This will (1) add a layer of in-depth knowledge to the collections presented online;
(2) strengthen links between Europeana, the Europeana Network and the international Wikipedia community.
• Align music scores to text, to forge a dynamic connection between currently separated collections. By allowing for new types of exploration, the value for end-users of both the multimedia and digitised paper-based resources will be increased.
• Explore possibilities of music information retrieval to support innovative, language independent exploration of audio collections.
• Put in place policies and (in connection with WP5) infrastructural preconditions allowing enrichments to be re-ingested in the information systems of the contributing archives, wherever relevant.

CultureasGeneratorSustainableNetworks
This is a ppt from my recent talk to an international group of professionals Black Sea and Balkan Regions on Culture and Sustainable Development hosted by the Ministry of Culture of Bulgaria.
The presentation is interactive based on personal research multiple sources. It is meant to be moderated and leading from general to some more specific insights on sustainable networks in culture.
Core message - networks are essential for business, policy makers, creators because they maintain the innovation drive and the cross-over and spill-over effects. In particular the engagemnet of public and users in designing together policies, practices, production and distribution are the focus of regional COOPERATION.
HOPE in a nutshell @IALHI International Conference 2012
The HOPE project aims to aggregate online social and labor history collections from across Europe. It involves partnerships between 10 institutions in 8 countries. The objectives are to develop best practices for digitization, build a social history metadata aggregator and content repository, and create an upgraded labor history portal. HOPE will provide over 880,000 digitized objects like photographs, publications, and recordings to Europeana and other online access points. This will benefit both content providers through international cooperation and users by making collections more accessible.
Towards more smart, connected and open audiovisual archives
As a result of digitisation of analogue holdings and working processes, more and more material from audiovisual archies is being made available online. This marks a transformative shift, as archives and users are now sharing the same information space. Once digital and part of an open network, objects from audiovisual archives can be shared, recommended, remixed, embedded, cited, referenced to and so on. It is a far cry from several years ago, when users were obliged to visit brick and mortar institutions to access collections. This shift towards digital enables archives to fulfil their pubic missions better; crossing geographical boundaries, using new channels for content distribution, engage with user groups and use new technologies to make work processes more efficient and allow for new access points to collections. It also introduces fundamental challenges, forcing audiovisual archives to [1] rethink their role and function in the value chain of media production and modern society at large, [2] assess which activities and competences are vital to succeed in a digital context.
We envision the future audiovisual archives to be smart, connected and open; using smart technologies to optimise workflows for annotation and content distribution. Collaborating with third parties to co-design and co-develop new technologies in order to manifest themselves as frontrunners rather than followers. Being connected to other sources of information (other collections, contextual sources), to a variety of often niche user communities, researchers and the creative industries. To embrace the use of standards defined by external instances rather than by the cultural heritage communities themselves. Fully embrace ‘open’ as the default to have maximum impact in society: applying open licences for content delivery, using open source software and open standards wherever possible. Promote open access to publications and so on.
This keynote examines how the public mission of archives (i.e. supporting a myriad of users to utilize collections to learn, experience and create) can be achieved in a digital context. It addresses the challenges related to the role and function of institutions and provides practical insights in how archives can establish a culture of innovation to manage challenges they face today. It addresses some of the major questions audiovisual archives are faced with today.

Challenges on modeling annotations in the europeana sounds project
Presented at iAnnotate16 (http://iannotate.org/) by Hugo Manguinhas on 19 May 2016.
Cultural heritage institutions are looking at crowdsourcing as a new way and opportunity to improve the overall quality of their data and contribute to a better semantic description and link to the web of data. This is also the case for Europeana, as crowdsourcing under the form of annotations is envisioned and being worked on in several projects. As part of the EU Europeana Sounds project (http://www.europeanasounds.eu/), we have identified the user stories and requirements that cover the following annotation scenarios: open and controlled tagging; geotagging, enrichment of metadata; annotation of media resources; linking to other objects; moderation and general discussions.
As a central point on all the efforts around annotations is an agreement on how these should be modelled in a uniform way for all these scenarios, as it is essential to bring such information to Europeana and in a way that can also be easily exploited and shared beyond our portal. For this, we are using the recent W3C Web Annotation Data Model (WADM) supported by the Open Annotation community as it is the most promising model at the moment.
Due to its flexible design and early stage of development, at the moment, there is insufficient recommendations on how some of our user stories and requirements can be modelled. In our presentation we will make proposals on how the WADM can be applied for these scenarios and we are looking for discussion/feedback from the community in the hope that it will help cultural heritage institutions and other communities to better understand how annotations can be modelled.

The Future of Historic Sounds – a prelude
Presentation by Richard Ranft, Head of Sound and Vision, British Library & Project Coordinator of Europeana Sounds
Conference "Europeana Sounds 2015: the Future of Historic Sounds", Paris, 2 October 2015.
Aggregation status on Year 1
This document summarizes an aggregation workshop that took place on June 25th, 2015 in Athens. The workshop included presentations on metadata ingestion plans and progress, publishing content to Europeana, and recapping a previous training session. There was also a discussion of KPI targets for different institutions to contribute images, text, sound, and video to Europeana over the next year. Participants were asked to share updates and timelines for working on collections to help meet contribution targets.
Publication of Europeana Sounds data in Europeana
The document discusses the publication of sound recordings from the Europeana Sounds project in Europeana. Over 26,000 sound records were published in May 2015 with more to be added in June. It provides information on the processes for new submissions, updates, and feedback. Guidelines are given on metadata quality like mandatory properties and direct links. Enriching data with sound vocabularies is also discussed to improve presentation in the Europeana Music channel. Help and guidance resources are listed for working with Europeana Professional and the Content inbox.
EDM for Europeana Sounds
This document provides an overview of the Europeana Data Model (EDM) and how it can be used to represent audio and sound cultural heritage objects within Europeana. It describes the key EDM classes - ProvidedCHO, WebResource, Aggregation, and contextual classes like Agent, Place, TimeSpan and Concept. It also outlines the EDM profile for sounds, which specifies additional properties and subclasses to better describe audio objects and their relationships in EDM. The document aims to help providers understand how to represent sound objects and their associated metadata and digital resources using the EDM framework.
Aggregation workflow
The document describes Europeana's aggregation workflow including:
- Europeana's aggregation team handles partner relationships and technical support.
- Data is submitted according to Europeana's publication policy and on a monthly cycle with deadlines.
- The ingestion process involves validation, mapping data to EDM, and publishing on Europeana's portal and API.
- Guidance is provided to help partners meet acceptance criteria around rights, metadata quality, and the EDM schema.
- Future plans aim to open up more of the ingestion workflow for partners to do mapping and validation themselves.
Metadata ingestion plan presentation
This document provides an overview of Europeana Sounds' metadata ingestion plan and targets. It discusses the four main stages of aggregation: content selection, metadata preparation, metadata ingestion, and metadata curation. It outlines the targets for metadata sets to be ingested by certain milestones. Progress will be measured against targets in the Description of Work. The document provides guidance on metadata quality, rights, and using controlled vocabularies to enhance discovery.
Recap of the previous training session
This document summarizes a previous training session on using the MINT platform to transform metadata into the Europeana Data Model (EDM) format. It discusses basic EDM concepts, the EDM Sounds profile extension, how to use MINT to map provider metadata to EDM Sounds, transform the metadata, and publish it to Europeana. Upcoming topics for a second training session are also listed.
Short introduction to RDF model based on the EDM sounds profile
The document provides an introduction to the RDF data model and the Europeana Data Model (EDM) for describing digital cultural heritage objects such as sounds. It explains that RDF uses URIs to identify resources and describes them with properties and property values. It provides examples of how EDM represents a sound object and its related metadata and aggregation information using RDF syntax and as a graph. It also discusses two approaches for representing the grouping of objects into collections within the EDM model using RDF.
Advanced mappings
This document discusses different types of mappings that can be performed when mapping metadata between schemas, including:
- Xpath mapping by dragging xpath elements between schemas
- Enumerated mappings for elements with predefined lists of values
- Constant mappings to apply the same value to all items
- Concatenate mappings to combine multiple mappings
- Functional mappings to modify values using string manipulation functions
- Conditional mappings to set conditions on mappings
- Value mappings to align specific values between schemas
- Structural mappings to reflect complex types between schemas
- Thesaurus mappings to align terms to controlled vocabularies
Europeana publication
This document discusses Europeana's use of unique identifiers and provides guidance on publishing and republishing metadata. It notes that Europeana uses EDM resource identifiers to distinguish items and detect duplicates. It advises ensuring unique local identifiers are used for each imported item to avoid duplicates being discarded. It also presents four cases involving publishing new or updated metadata and actions to take, such as unpublishing existing imports before publishing overlapping new ones.
Europeana sounds in a nutshell (June 2015)
- Europeana Sounds was a 3-year project from 2014-2017 funded by the European Commission to make more audio content available through Europeana's online platform. It aimed to improve access to and experience of searching for sounds, music, and other audio files.
- The project established a network of 24 organizations across Europe to aggregate audio collections and provide metadata. It developed new technical infrastructure and processes to enrich audio metadata and make content available through various Europeana channels.
- By 2016-2017, Europeana Sounds had expanded Europeana's audio offerings by building out additional search, browsing, and content display features on its website and other online channels. It sought to promote reuse of audio recordings and engage various stakeholders in cultural heritage institutions

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.Freshworks Rethinks NoSQL for Rapid Scaling & Cost-Efficiency

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
