by Hilmar Lapp 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

Call for Intended Participation 3rd U.S. Semantic Technologies Symposium 2020, 9 – 11 March 2020, Raleigh, North Carolina. https://us2ts.org/ ===================================== The US2TS Symposium series is an emerging premier forum for fostering community between academic, industry, and government researchers and practitioners in the US that develop or apply semantic technologies. The interest in semantics has been strengthened by the growing dependence on the Web and the continuously increasing importance of large-scale data sharing, integration, and reuse. Participants at the US2TS come from disciplines in computer science and engineering, natural sciences, geoscience, biology, library science, biomedical and health care sciences, social sciences and the humanities, and many others. Discussions at the symposium cover core topics such as the Semantic Web, Ontologies, Knowledge Graph, Linked Data and AI on the Web, Privacy and Trust, etc., as well as the intersection of such topics with areas such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Blockchains. ===================================== At this time, we are seeking to understand the interests and motivations of prospective participants, who are already planning or are considering to attend the 3rd US2TS. ** Form for Intended Participation: https://forms.gle/7VdmyBH6XWFrffQM6 We would appreciate if you could fill out the above form to help us gather additional information to structure a productive yet distinct program for this symposium. There is no commitment for you to fill this form out. Even if there is only a small chance that you would be attending this year, we would request you to fill out the form. The data that is collected is going to be used only to inform how the program should be organized. We will maintain the results private. Name, organization and email is optional. If you do fill it out, we may contact you to follow up on any questions we may have. ===================================== ** Contact ===================================== All questions about submissions should be emailed to contact us at us2ts2020-org AT googlegroups DOT com You are also welcome to join our social network on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/13783135/ Look forward to your great contributions and participation.

Call for Contributions (Session Proposals and Lightning Talks) Extended Deadlines!! 3rd U.S. Semantic Technologies Symposium 2020, 9 – 11 March 2020, Raleigh, North Carolina. https://us2ts.org/ ===================================== The US2TS Symposium series is an emerging premier forum for fostering community between academic, industry and government researchers and practitioners in the US that develop or apply semantic technologies. The interest in semantics has been strengthened by the growing dependence on the Web and the continuously increasing importance of large-scale data sharing, integration, and reuse. Semantics is an inherently multi-disciplinary field that attracts engagement from a broad range of researchers and practitioners. Participants at the US2TS come from disciplines in computer science and engineering, natural sciences, geoscience, biology, library science, biomedical and health care sciences, social sciences and the humanities, and many others. Discussions at the symposium cover core topics such as the Semantic Web, Ontologies, Knowledge Graph, Linked Data and AI on the Web, Privacy and Trust, etc., as well as the intersection of such topics with areas such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Blockchains. US2TS 2020 organizational committee invites your contributions and participation in the 2020 edition of US2TS to be held on 9 – 11 March 2020, in Raleigh, North Carolina. At this time, we are seeking two kinds of contributions (calls for other kinds of contributions will follow shortly). ===================================== ** Call for Sessions Proposals ===================================== We solicit anyone with an interest in the Semantic Web to propose a session for US2TS 2020. A session is any relevant activity that can fit into a 90 minutes slot (you can also propose a session that takes more than one slot).

At least 2-3 people, preferably from different institutions, propose the session. This is not a strict requirement, mostly a recommendation (if you have a good case for a different setting we will definitely take your proposal into account). 2. All the session leaders are asked to confirm and commit to participate at the time of submission. 3. If your proposal already names speakers or panelists, you must state whether their participation is already confirmed. We encourage session proposals about cross-discipline topics which are of concern for participants from existing sub-communities ** Submission Guidelines -------------------------------------------------------------- Please prepare a (max) 2 page submission indicating: - Name of the session - Topic: please indicate which cross-discipline topics the session will tackle. Here you can also specify if there is any particular vertical of interest (e.g. legal, life science, medical, publisher/scholarly data, cultural heritage, library, museum, oil/gas, engineering, airplane, e-commerce, etc) - Type of session: Panel | Presentations | Break-out discussion | Tutorial | BOF | Other (please specify) - Short description of the session - The 2/3 person team (names & affiliations) that will lead the session - Speakers(when applicable).

Re: [tdwg-content] tdwg-content Digest, Vol 111, Issue 6
by Deborah Paul 31 Oct '19

31 Oct '19

Hi Steve, Wouldn't a basic (and much needed) use case simply be discovery? It's great to have this metadata (as Morphbank showed/shows) for being able to find images that have certain features / attributes in common. Say, I'd like to use AI to compare wing venation, or AI to compare variation in head shape for a particular group. Being able to search by subjectPart and subjectOrientation allows me to find images of interest much more efficiently. One bit that strikes me is that to do this we also need to know what taxonomic group the images are from. Hopefully, this is shared either in AC, or in the accompanying DwC Occurrence file in the higher classification fields... Deb PS Shall I add this use case to your list using your form? Or do you feel it's sufficiently covered in what you have already? I would add that we (at iDigBio) often get very little media metadata -- it makes discovery of relevant objects extremely difficult.
