Categories of uncertainty #1934
Comments
Thanks @michalkozak for your feature request. Would you be happy to describe your use case a bit more concrete, ideally with examples that illustrate it (and which could be incorporated in the Guidelines, should your proposal be accepted)? On first read I wonder why not to use @ana attribute for the job, also, would you say there's an overlap between your postulated @category and existing @Locus attribute? |
Hi! Could you please use |
Wouldn't this better be solved by having |
Thanks for all your advice. We are implementing platform for visual analysis of uncertainty in DH collections. In order to use Regarding The best I like the suggestion of @jamescummings to add att.typed to |
Guess we should have it discussed with the rest of the Council but seems straightforward and I don't see why it would be wrong to have category in att.typed. I will try to put it on the agenda for our next monthly call (mid-November). |
Yes, I don't mind adding |
I doubt we actually need a phone discussion — I think this is small enough we could probably handle it by e-mail. After all, |
I'm in favour of adding |
Thanks @sydb, wasn't sure what's the correct procedure ;-) I'm not convinced we even need the suggested value list for @type, thoughts @jamescummings @sydb @ebeshero @martindholmes? |
And by that I mean, yes, I like adding |
Have you already decided to add If not, we will use |
Council VF2F agrees @tuurma is GO to add That said, we think @michalkozak’s particular case might be better encoded with |
add certainty to att.typed; close #1934
add certainty to att.typed; close #1934
The TEI P5 Guidelines says (21.1.2):
It would be very desirable for purposes of automatic processing or visualization of uncertainty to be able to categorize annotations of uncertainty.
According to the book "Data Uncertainty and Important Measures" by Christophe Simon, Philippe Weber and Mohamed Sallak (John Wiley & Sons, 2018) and other literature, the epistemic uncertainty is most often divided into the following four categories:
Imprecision corresponds to the inability to express the true value because the absence of experimental values does not allow the definition of a probability distribution or because it is difficult to obtain the exact value of a measure.
Ignorance is related to the fact that information could have been incorrectly assessed by the person gathering or organizing the data. It is also possible that people, not fully sure about how to deal with data, ignore some information and generate uncertainty during the evaluation and decision processes.
Incompleteness corresponds to the fact that not all situations are covered. Often it is impossible to know every possible option available.
Credibility (discord) concerns the weight that an agent can attach to its judgment. This concept can be linked to that of biased opinions, which are related to personal visions of the landscape, which can make for significant variations between different groups and individuals, given their backgrounds.
We (https://providedh.eu/) postulate to add a new attribute "category" to the "certainty" element. It can be a semi-open list with the above mentioned categories. We do not want to limit others to this taxonomy of uncertainty.
