Instructions: Student mini-projects - F.Flöck - ESWC SS 2014TRANSCRIPT
ESWC SS 2014 Student mini-projects
Fabian Flöck
The outcome
• (Presentation about a) Demo software, applying Semantic Web technology to solve a concrete problem – Creative idea generation and (best) a working prototype, focus is
not on the technical implementation
• Focus on interesting and novel application • Reuse tools, techniques and datasets,
integrate them
Example project • Evolution of music genres in western music • Popularity of artists by country over time
Ex. Project – Architecture
En#ty linking (String and property matches)
Web API/ Triplifica#on
Server Infrastructure
Triplestore and SPARQL endpoint
Visualiza#on and Web API
Less likely to succeed..
• Group configuration • Semantic matchmaking: not in closed
domains, e.g., travel recommendations… • Rule-based XY à only with an engine • Do not only use DBpedia (there are more!) • Don’t build an ontology • Crowdsourcing à yes, but why and how
The goals
• Collaborate in a team with previously unknown researchers, making the most of each others (complementary) skills – Under (realistic) time pressure
• Find common ground, articulate an idea • Design tangible software/concept using LD,
exploring a research issue in some depth
Write a paper ?
The best practices
• Manage your time wisely – Specific steps have to be finished at one point
• Assign roles after the brainstorming stage – Esp. Friday, dedicate 2 persons to slides
• It is also about marketing • Balance between boldness and
compromise
The groups
• Find your own group of 4 people (8x4pp, 1x3pp à 9 groups total)
• Try to assemble by common interest / idea • Rule: No people from the same institution
or close current/former collaborators • As diverse as possible • Ex-post adjustments, where necessary!
The timeline // Tue Wed
• Find your group until the end of the poster session tonight & find a name à Tell Fabian
• Give Fabian your topic (one-paragraph outline) before lunch on Wednesday and get assigned two tutors (primary and secondary) in the afternoon ([email protected])
The timeline // Thu
• On Thursday morning, get the final approval for your topic from your primary Tutor
• On Thursday, tutors will be available the whole day at the pool
• WORK
The timeline // Fri
• For help, arrange meetings with Tutors • Rehearse your presentation! • Deadline for your presentation is on
Friday, 17:30 sharp (i.e., USB stick ready) • Friday 17:31 – 19:59 à relax! • Friday 20:00 à Dinner • Friday ca. 22:30 – ?? à disco disco
The presentation
• Saturday, 9:00 (a.m.) sharp: Presentations start
• Order of presentations undisclosed • At least one presenter, whole group attends • 10 min (=10 min) à Focus on core ideas – NO laptop swapping
• Project is judged on: Presentation, innovativeness/creativity, real-world-applicability
• Winner gets a price! Yay!
