Social Media Marketing
Social media marketing is likened to fishing, with consumers banding together and brands trying to attract them. However, companies approach social media in two ways - some focus on tools and technologies without understanding customer behaviors, missing opportunities, while others understand where their target customers engage online and are more successful in connecting with them. The key is for companies to understand their customers' behaviors in order to effectively engage with them through social media.

Nik Ridgeway wants to be happy, create beautiful music, and support his friends and family. He has pursued music since receiving his first bass and has honed his skills through performance and working for hours on his computer to create music, with the goal of one day bringing happiness to others through the music he has made. As a creator, Nik's goal is to create the best product he can for movies, games, or television, and he puts his heart into everything he does.
Who Are We When We're Online? Self in a Digital Medium
The document discusses how our identities are shaped and expressed through digital media. It notes that online we have multiple facets and selves that are amplified and networked more than ever before, bringing both opportunities and vulnerabilities. It explores how digital selves are public, social, and potentially economic, and argues that what matters most is the kind of citizen we choose to be through our online interactions and representations.
The future of the web
The document discusses the future of the web and users. It notes that while the web was initially dominated by younger users, the 55+ demographic is increasingly using social media sites like Facebook. However, older users may face barriers to use such as privacy concerns and complexity. The document advocates for designing sites that are simple and collaborative to help address these barriers and facilitate broader adoption. It also suggests starting simply and scaling features over time based on user needs and feedback.
How One Click Can Change The World
This document discusses how online activism through social media can impact important causes in the world. It provides examples of viral campaigns like the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge that raised over $100 million for ALS research. Other examples discussed include online campaigns to #BringBackOurGirls that was abducted in Nigeria and hacktivist groups like Anonymous that have drawn attention to issues through online protests. The document argues that while clicktivism is easy, sharing messages or donating small amounts online, it can still significantly raise awareness and funds when many people participate.

History of horror
Horror films have existed since the silent movie era, but saw huge revivals in popularity in the late 1970s through early 1980s with films like The Omen and A Nightmare on Elm Street. After declining popularity in the late 1980s and 1990s, the horror genre experienced renewed success starting with the 1996 film Scream. Horror films are designed to frighten and terrify audiences while also entertaining them, often focusing on disturbing events and preying on common human fears such as darkness and tension buildup.

The document summarizes related work on analyzing email datasets to: 1) detect worm propagation by analyzing features to classify normal vs abnormal emails, 2) predict organizational structure by discovering important nodes, and 3) characterize email to identify communities of interest by measuring user flow and frequency. It also discusses applications like email prioritization, determining popularity within communities, detecting key users, and identifying hidden relationships. The proposed approach uses collaborative similarity measures and k-medoid clustering to group users with similar communication patterns from email metadata.
ICDE-2015 Shortest Path Traversal Optimization and Analysis for Large Graph C...
Waqas Nawaz Khokhar presented research on optimizing shortest path traversal and analysis for large graph clustering. The presentation outlined challenges with traditional graph clustering approaches for big real-world graphs. It proposed four optimizations: 1) a collaborative similarity measure to reduce complexity from O(n3) to O(n2logn); 2) identifying overlapping shortest path regions to avoid redundant traversals; 3) confining traversals within clusters to limit unnecessary graph regions; and 4) allowing parallel shortest path queries to reduce latency. Experimental results on real and synthetic graphs showed the approaches improved efficiency by 40% in time and an order of magnitude in space while maintaining clustering quality. Future work aims to address intermediate data explosion

Fast directional weighted median filter for removal of random valued impulse ...
This document proposes a Directional Weighted Median filter approach for removing random valued impulse noise. It has two main steps: 1) a new impulse detector that identifies noisy pixels based on differences between a pixel and its neighbors in four directions, and 2) a weighted median filter that incorporates the impulse detections and uses directional standard deviations to weight pixels for calculating the median value to restore noisy pixels. Simulation results show the Directional Weighted Median Filter improves time complexity over the standard median filter by incorporating a fast median filter that runs in linear time rather than quadratic time.
Social Media vs. Social Relationships
The document discusses how Facebook has impacted dating and relationships. While almost 90% of people look at an ex's Facebook profile, research does not show that Facebook has actually ruined love. The document provides references to several articles on topics like how Facebook has affected breaking up, defining relationships as "Facebook official", online dating, and stopping the habit of stalking exes on Facebook. It also thanks a cat and provides image credits.

강의(영어) 한국의Smu(이재창)-2012
The document discusses the Saemaul Undong movement in South Korea which was launched in the 1970s as a model of rural development. It aimed to reform rural villages through a spirit of diligence, self-help and cooperation. The movement provided villages with basic materials and guidelines to implement community improvement projects. Outstanding villages received additional support, fostering competition. Key to its success was spontaneous community participation, democratic decision making, dedicated local leaders, and priority support linking performance to rewards. The cooperative work between government, villagers and leaders served as an effective model for rural development.
Presentation on Graph Clustering (vldb 09)
This document proposes a graph clustering method that considers both structural and attribute similarities among nodes. It augments the original graph by adding attribute nodes and edges. A unified neighborhood random walk distance is used to measure node closeness on the augmented graph. Edge weights are automatically adjusted during clustering to optimize the contributions of different attributes. Experimental results on real datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves better balance between structural cohesiveness and attribute homogeneity compared to other methods.
Collaborative Similarity Measure for Intra-Graph Clustering
The document summarizes a presentation on a proposed collaborative similarity measure (CSM) for intra-graph clustering. CSM calculates similarity between vertices based on both their structural proximity and attribute similarity. It was tested on real and synthetic datasets and was shown to be scalable to medium graphs while maintaining high quality clusters, as measured by density, entropy, and F-measure, compared to other methods. The presentation covered the motivation, related work, CSM method, experiments evaluating time complexity and quality, and conclusions.

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.

-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data
"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
