A lot of discussions at #tpdl2023 about OCR, tesseract and the post-processing steps

@shawnmjones overheard at #tpdl2023 "be more like perma.cc"

In his #tpdl2023 talk "Synthesizing Web Archive Collections Into Big Data: Lessons From Mining Data From Web Archives" @shawnmjones summarizes status quo of lack of interoperability among web archives, specifically for large-scale use, aka "think about the robots!".

At #tpdl2023 Shawn Jones (@shawnmjones) is giving a talk on „Synthesizing Web Archive Collections Into Big Data: Lessons From Mining Data From Web Archives“.

He talks about challenges when mining data from web archives. The authors reviewed 22 web archives and discuss methods needed to re-synthesize a memento to something close to its original capture without augmentations.

He especially cares about robots.

At #TPDL2023 right now, @martinklein is presenting “It's Not Just GitHub: Identifying Data and Software Sources Included in Publications”

The authors trained a classifier to classify open-access data and software (OADS) URLs from research papers as dataset or code. Archivists can then take these URLs and preserve the referenced datasets and code for reproducibility.

Martin Klein (@martinklein) is giving a presentation at #tpdl2023. The title is: „It’s Not Just GitHub: Identifying Data and Software Sources Included in Publications“. He talks about in which repositories researcher published their data and code.

Beatrice Alex is giving the second #TPDL2023 keynote “AI language technologies and digital collections: the need for interdisciplinary communication and co-design and training”

* How can we invite #AI into the #archive?
* AI can provide a lot of positive opportunities.
* To improve its application, we need #interdisciplinary collaborations going forward.
* AI #literacy needs to be taught early in education.

Yesterday at #TPDL2023 David Pride presented “CORE-GPT: Combining Open Access research and large language models for credible, trustworthy question answering”

Rather than #ZeroShot question/answering, Pride’s team combines the #CORE #OpenAccess dataset with #ElasticSearch to create #FewShot prompts that leverage the strength of combining #search results with the #LLM’s (#GPT) #summarization abilities to produce an answer to a user’s question including citations.

Yesterday at #TPDL2023 Gianmaria Silvello presented“How to Cite a Web Ranking and Make it #FAIR”

Researchers often need to cite #SearchEngine results. Unfortunately, search engines change their algorithms and their index all the time. Alessandro Lotta and Gianmaria Silvello presented a #prototype that captures this ranking in a human- and machine-readable #format and posts it to #Zenodo for citing with a #DOI.

My suggestion: include #webarchiving and #webarchives

#TPDL2023 @hkroll and Mirjam Cuper from the Institute for Information Systems presented “Aspect-Driven Structuring of Historical Dutch Newspaper Archives”

The authors discussed the challenges of automatically organizing and structuring content in a corpus when the #OCR is unreliable, the #metadata might be inconsistent, and the #licensing restrictions dictate who can see the content.

Just learned about Publication Retriever (https://github.com/LSmyrnaios/PublicationsRetriever) which scrapes the PDF URL based on an article URL.
This would have been very useful to me a year ago!

Laura Hollink kicks off #TPDL2023 with her keynote on responsible AI in GLAM

Zadar, Croatia is pretty. The #TPDL2023 conference starts later today. I cannot wait.

(I also have jet lag, but I’m fighting through it.)

Conference website: https://tpdl2023.dei.unipd.it/index.html

@kentborg @Dianora (I’m on a plane & the WiFi is spotty.)

I’m going to #TPDL2023 and will not live-tweet it like past conferences. I’ll post to #Mastodon and #Bluesky, but not #Twitter.

But I ask myself, why didn’t I quit when #Musk:
* made using the word #cisgender grounds for suspension?
* was promoting #antivaxx, #antisemitism, #racism, #sexism & hurting #BlackTwitter?
* suspended #journalists?

I stayed for the people who stayed. I stayed to help promote & support them.

Hi #Mastodon! Tomorrow I'm going to #Zadar, #Croatia for #TPDL2023! Any suggestions on cool things to do or places to eat at outside of the #DigitalLibraries #conference?
