Dublin Core Data Institute - October 19, Toronto 29 Jun 2024 4:00 PM (last year)

Data is now the cornerstone of advanced research across various fields, including the humanities and social sciences. These disciplines increasingly rely on data, generating new information as evidence or demonstrating innovative practices. To combat research fraud and promote broader dissemination, publication venues now require data sharing. Recognizing the importance of open data environments, it’s crucial to provide scholars with easy access. Despite growing interest, efforts in data aggregation and dissemination remain inconsistent. The Dublin Core Data Institute (DCDI) aims to unite data scientists and scholars, establishing a federated data service to address key challenges and develop comprehensive open data resources for humanities and social science research.

NKOS Workshop on AI and KOS at DCMI-2024 in Toronto 28 Jun 2024 4:00 PM (last year)

An NKOS Workshop will be held at DCMI 2024, the twenty-second International Conference on Dublin Core and Metadata Applications, October 20-23, Toronto, Canada. The NKOS Workshop is particularly interested in how knowledge organization systems (KOS) are being used or can be used to make automation intelligent. For example, one problem with LLMs is “hallucinations” where the application generates a response to a prompt that is “correct” but not true. How can KOS be integrated with LLMs to guide their responses so that they do not produce “hallucinations”? The workshop will feature demonstrations from projects working in this exciting area.

Dublin Core announces openWEMI for community review 28 Nov 2023 3:00 PM (last year)

Dublin Core introduces openWEMI for community review, a minimally constrained RDF vocabulary based on Work, Expression, Manifestation, and Item (WEMI) concepts. It diverges from IFLA's library-focused approach, offering broader application in metadata modeling and including the Endeavor class and common properties for diverse metadata resources. The vocabulary, with documentation and a turtle file, seeks feedback via GitHub and a mailing list.
