Smart Data Webinar: Knowledge as a ServiceDATAVERSITY
Building a successful ModernAI application often requires large volumes of data for training ML models or data that has been organized into knowledge using taxonomies or ontologies to support specific vertical markets (healthcare, insurance, pharma, etc.) or horizontal functions (HR, legal, supply chain, etc). While tools do exist to help developers ingest and organize the required data into meaningful knowledge stores, using pre-built data or knowledge packages can make application development faster, more reliable, and less expensive than starting from scratch.
In this webinar we will look at trends and examples of specific proprietary and open source data sets that offer prebuilt knowledge, representations, or models to serve these markets.

This presentation is from November 12, 2004 given at Design Engaged in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
It focusses on the difficulty syncing content and information between our own devices we own and use. We try to keep our information with us on our devices within our reach, but that is difficult. Adding contextual filtering to cut through the volume of information we have is another issue.
This syncing feeling problem is only slightly better than it was in 2004 when this was presented and the path forward is even more relevant.

Using Personal Perspectives to Increase UnderstandingThomas Vander Wal
Keynote presentation to E-Learn 2013 in Las Vegas. Using personal annotations and embracing personal perspectives to enhance learning and increase knowledge.
A talk to CPFB covering some of the social lenses as well as reaching back into the Model of Attraction, receptors, come to me web, InfoClouds, and folksonomy.
This presentation was given to a sold out crowd at Salesforce UX Lecture Series in San Francisco.
This is the second presentation of this and it changed a bit. The focus is how to take the next we must take to improve our social software we are using, particularly for organization within their own walls. The shift of from the social patterns of early adopters to mainstream is really a large shift and things are really difficult to do as we have only just begun the trek again (groupware and KM were the two prior attempts).
Understanding how to look at things through different social lenses so to see what is going on is essential. This presentation is 6 or 7 of my 40+ (now just over 50) social lenses to help do this. This presentation is a high level view, but enough to see gaps and where things could and should change as we move forward.
This is a short presentation that was quickly put together for UX Barcamp DC. There are a few items that I hadn't put into slides before, but have been background in many other presentations.
What Urban Planning Can Teach Us About Social Business DesignThomas Vander Wal

Enterprise Social Tools & the Knowledge OrganizationThomas Vander Wal
This presentation was delivered as a keynote to three joint conferences - KM World, Enterprise Search, and Taxonomy Bootcamp - November 2009 in San Jose.
The focus is lessons learned from those who have been running social tools inside the enterprise for a year or more - the "One Year Club". This focuses not only the lessons learned but how to increase adoption by putting focus not on early adopters but all employees and their needs and pain points.
This presentation was a 10 to 20 minute presentation at Design Engaged 2005 in Berlin. The presentation was an exercise I was doing thinking through how to use our own data we were collecting and sharing out on the web and integrate it with the information from others we trust.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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.

1. From Tagging to Folksonomy:
Going Beyond “Bookmark This”
Thomas Vander Wal
Presented to: Association of Alternative Newsweeklies
San Francisco, CA, USA :: 31 January 2008
2. What Is A Tag?
InfoCloud Solutions, Inc. - 2008
3. Tagging: Definition
❖ Simple data/metadata externally applied to
an object
❖ Used for sorting
❖ A hook for aggregating
❖ Provides identifier and/or description
❖ Personal markers
InfoCloud Solutions, Inc. - 2008
11. Folksonomy: Definition
❖ Folksonomy is the result of personal free tagging of
pages and objects for one's own retrieval
❖ The tagging is usually done in a social environment
(shared and open to others)
❖ The act of tagging is done by the person consuming
the information
InfoCloud Solutions, Inc. - 2008
12. Folksonomy: Value
The value in this external tagging is derived
from people using their own vocabulary and
adding explicit meaning which may come from
meaning,
inferred understanding of the information/
object.
People are not so much categorizing, as
providing a means to connect items
(placing hooks) to provide their meaning in their
own understanding.
InfoCloud Solutions, Inc. - 2008

into an existing cognitive process without
adding much cognitive cost”
