Effective Unsupervised Author Disambiguation with Relative FrequenciesMOVING Project
The document summarizes research on using agglomerative clustering and probabilistic similarity to perform unsupervised author disambiguation. It presents the problem of linking author mentions that refer to the same real-world author when only the name is given. The method clusters author mentions based on similarity across features like terms, affiliations and co-authors. Experiments on a large dataset show that co-author features are highly important and the stopping criteria can be improved to better balance precision and recall for different problem sizes. Overall, the unsupervised approach works well but leaves room for future parameter and evaluation methodology refinements.
What to read next? Challenges and Preliminary Results in Selecting Represen...MOVING Project
1. The document presents an approach for selecting representative documents from a set of search results to provide users with an overview of the content and subtopics. It compares different document representations, clustering algorithms, and selection methods on two datasets.
2. The evaluation measures of coverage and redundancy were found to be insufficient for accurately evaluating representativeness, as the scores increased with the number of selected documents and were sometimes independent of the actual selection method.
3. The research questions explored how document representation, clustering algorithm, and selection method influence coverage and redundancy, finding the choice of clustering had the largest impact. Coverage and redundancy were found to be inflated and not directly reflect representativeness.
Qualitative Analysis of Vocabulary Evolution on the Linked Open Data CloudMOVING Project
The document analyzes the evolution of vocabularies on the Linked Open Data cloud. It selects 12 major vocabularies and analyzes over 10,000 changes across different versions. The analysis finds that most changes are internal rather than relying on external vocabularies, and that domains like publications see more changes. Understanding how vocabularies evolve can help with maintaining and developing new ontologies over time.
Analyzing the Evolution of Vocabulary Terms and Their Impact on the LOD CloudMOVING Project
Vocabularies are used for modeling data in Knowledge Graphs
(KGs) like the Linked Open Data Cloud and Wikidata. During their life-time, vocabularies are subject to changes. New terms are coined while existing terms are modified or deprecated. We first quantify the amount and frequency of changes in vocabularies. Subsequently, we investigate to which extend and when the changes are adopted in the evolution of KGs.
We conduct our experiments on three large-scale KGs for which time-stamped information is available, namely the Billion Triples Challenge datasets, Dynamic Linked Data Observatory dataset, and Wikidata. Our results show that the change frequency of terms is rather low, but can have high impact due to the large amount of distributed graph data on the web. Furthermore, not all coined terms are used and most of the
deprecated terms are still used by data publishers. The adoption time of terms coming from different vocabularies ranges from very fast (few days) to very slow (few years). Surprisingly, we could observe some adoptions before the vocabulary changes were published. Understanding the evolution of vocabulary terms is important to avoid wrong assumptions about the modeling status of data published on the web, which may result in difficulties when querying the data from distributed sources.
Keeping Linked Open Data Caches Up-to-date by Predicting the Life-time of RDF...MOVING Project
This document discusses predicting the lifetime of RDF triples in Linked Open Data to help keep LOD caches up-to-date. It presents a method using linear regression to predict triple lifetime based on features like subject, predicate, and object. Evaluating on two datasets, the model predicted lifetime within 10% error. This was then used in a novel crawling strategy that outperformed existing strategies, preferentially updating triples predicted to change soon.

This document proposes a deep multi-task learning method called DMTL_LC for video concept detection that jointly considers task and label relations. It extends a convolutional neural network with a two-sided network for multi-task learning and adds a label-based constraint to incorporate statistical information about pairwise label correlations. An evaluation on the TRECVID SIN 2013 dataset shows DMTL_LC outperforms other single-task and multi-task baselines, achieving a MXinfAP of 22.60%. The method contributes a deep learning approach for concept detection that leverages relationships between tasks and labels.

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix
Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025

Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.

AI EngineHost Review: Revolutionary USA Datacenter-Based Hosting with NVIDIA ...SOFTTECHHUB
I started my online journey with several hosting services before stumbling upon Ai EngineHost. At first, the idea of paying one fee and getting lifetime access seemed too good to pass up. The platform is built on reliable US-based servers, ensuring your projects run at high speeds and remain safe. Let me take you step by step through its benefits and features as I explain why this hosting solution is a perfect fit for digital entrepreneurs.
Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results.
News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.
DevOpsDays Atlanta 2025 - Building 10x Development Organizations.pptxJustin Reock
Building 10x Organizations with Modern Productivity Metrics
10x developers may be a myth, but 10x organizations are very real, as proven by the influential study performed in the 1980s, ‘The Coding War Games.’
Right now, here in early 2025, we seem to be experiencing YAPP (Yet Another Productivity Philosophy), and that philosophy is converging on developer experience. It seems that with every new method we invent for the delivery of products, whether physical or virtual, we reinvent productivity philosophies to go alongside them.
But which of these approaches actually work? DORA? SPACE? DevEx? What should we invest in and create urgency behind today, so that we don’t find ourselves having the same discussion again in a decade?
