DCMI 2019: Keynotes

Fri, 26 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0000

We have three fantastic keynote speakers lined up for this year's conference in Seoul:

Young Man Ko

Young Man Ko is a professor at the Department of Library and Information Science at Sungkyunkwan University, Seoul, Korea since 1992. He received doctorate (Dr.Phil,) at the Department of Information Science at Freien Universität Berlin in 1991. He served as CIO for the Korea Research Foundation between 2006 and 2009, as president of the Korean Society for Library and Information Science between 2009 and 2010, and also as director of the University Library at Sungkyunkwan University between 2013 and 2014. He works as dean of the College of the Liberal Arts at Sungkyunkwan University since January 1, 2019.

Karen Coyle

Karen Coyle is a librarian with decades of experience with library technology. Karen has published books, articles and reports, most available on her web site, kcoyle.net. She has served on standards committees including the MARC standards group (MARBI), the OpenURL standard, the ePub standard, and W3C's SHACL. She follows, writes, and speaks on a wide range policy areas, including intellectual property, privacy, and public access to information.

Keynotes

Keynote by Young Man Ko: Extracting ontologies from terminological databases [keynote]
Young Man Ko

A structural definition-based terminology defines terms on the basis of properties that are structured by conceptual categories (classes). When a structural definition-based terminology is extracted from a relational database into RDF, inference rules can be generated for use in complex semantic search by SPARQL query. Complex SPARQL queries that leverage these rules can yield better results than simple keyword queries, reflecting the logical combination of semantically related terms. With their basis in ontologies so generated, structural definition-based terminologies can be used to index databases for retrieval and to mine informal big data through the application of well-defined semantic concepts.

Keynote by Karen Coyle: All the Books [keynote]
Karen Coyle

Since the days of the fabled Library of Alexandria there have been efforts to gather a complete collection of recorded knowledge. While various efforts have paid attention to quality, coverage and redundancy, little has been developed about how -- or if -- these warehouses of data can best serve knowledge seekers. Coyle will take a long view of the history of our "hunting and gathering" of information sources, including the difficulty of defining either ALL or BOOKS. While no easy solution to user service can be proposed, she will argue for a human-centered rather than a thing-centered approach.

Keynote by Javed Mostafa: The Coming Age of Information Inversion: When Information Searches for “would be” Seekers [keynote]
Javed Mostafa

“There are too many books. They are being produced every day in torrential abundance. Many of them are useless and stupid; their existence and their conservation is a dead weight upon humanity.” The latter is a quote from the Spanish philosopher José Ortega Y Gasset’s famous speech titled “Mission of the Librarian” which he gave about 85 years ago. As we all know, the situation has not changed and in fact it has grown worse. About a dozen years ago Jensen et al. published a nice study which showed that even specialists, in certain areas of biomedicine, upon spending a whole lifetime’s worth of effort may not finish reading all the relevant articles in their specific areas of research. Taking inspiration from the dictum of a “double-edged sword”, the information technology which contributed toward acceleration of information production should be looked upon as a potential source for solutions. However, if we rely on information technology to only improve how we find information, we would grossly underleverage its real potential. With recent advances in IT, there is an opportunity to enhance the full scholarly information life-cycle: seeking, producing, disseminating, and using scholarly information. Discussing the various ways to take advantage of IT to support the full scholarly information life-cycle may take too long and it may be out-of-scope in this forum. Hence, I will primarily focus on seeking and producing scholarly information. Specifically, four areas will be covered: 1) Machine-assisted information discovery, authentication, and validation, 2) Cyberinfrastructure and scientific instrument interfacing to automate document and data production, 3) Documents as information agents and document-agent communities, and finally, 4) Communication in next-generation scholarly ecosystems where scholars and documents engage in dialogs and even debates. Wherever appropriate, I will point out relevant R&D activities conducted by researchers in my laboratory and other researchers around the world.

Session: Metadata analysis and assessment (1)

Toward A Metadata Activity Matrix: Conceptualizing and Grounding the Research Life-cycle and Metadata Connections [paper (short)]
Sonia Pascua, Kai Li and Jane Greenberg

How metadata is involved in the data-driven scientific practice is an important means to evaluate its values, the goal underlying the concept of metadata capital. In this work-in-progress paper, we propose a research project aiming to examine how metadata activities are embedded in research and data activities, as represented in research and data lifecycle models. As a first step of this project, we identify research and data lifecycle models and that best fit the scope of this project and offer some higher-level mapping among research activities, data processes, and metadata activities. This work offers a solid framework for the next step of this project to better understand the real-world values of metadata works and outputs.
