Relevant notes from a Metadata: Description and Access guest lecture by Corey Harper of Elsevier

  • Unlike Carnegie Arttracks team, not skeptical of linked data as a tool in implementing machine learning.
  • “Ease of integration across data sources – merging graphs”
  • ETL – Extract, Transform, Load
  • Formal definition of how data elements relate to one another
  • 2009 Tim BL TedTalk – linked data publication exploded
  • 2011 W3C LLD Incubator – Encouraged experimental linked data projects
  • “Don’t just publish data, think about how people are actually going to use it”
  • A bunch of nodes is meaningless to most people
  • A Thinkbase/Freebase browsable interface
    • Google Knowledge Graph – the little info boxes you see when you search
    • They bought Freebase, hence why it disappeared
    • No one knows or cares that it’s linked data
  • RelFinderhttp://www.visualdataweb.org/relfinder.php 
    • Can search for associations between two entities across sources.
    • Linked Jazz-style
  • SNAC – “Facebook for dead people”
  • Prosopography – the study of an aggregate group based on systematic biographical study of individuals
  • Data in Narrative
  • Open Context
  • Pleiades
  • Books:
    • The Second Machine Age
    • Weapons of Math Destruction
  • Argument for linked data in libraries – this data may be less biased than data coming from Google/other corporate source
