potential presenters

[emmyft]

Continuing from #4's discussion

• something from eLife @de-code
• Open Knowledge Maps
• Scite.ai
• Projects from eScience? @mkuzak could you please approach?
• Projects from the Turing? @Biostew

[emmyft]

updates -

• Peter @ OK maps said yes, they are not sure if they would be there physically at MozFest, but can definitely do at least a remote presentation
• From eLife, there will most likely be 2 projects that we can present, on using AI and ML to abstract research output, and in peer review processes
• @Biostew is happy to present on FAIR at BL/Datacite - would be better if focussed on /targeted towards work related AI (:

Hi @emmyft -- @mkuzak mentioned this initiative to me. We were discussing it this morning, and could he mentioned you had in mind focusing on natural language processing / text analysis. But actually on this repo I cannot find any reference to it.

Basically my question boils down to: is there any specific focus of AI / ML tools which would be interesting for this session?

[emmyft]

Hi @c-martinez – thanks for the question!

I feel like we're interested in AI/ ML tools in general in this session – but since I work on research communication (discovery, consumption, sharing and evaluation), many tools naturally fall into the NLP/text analysis bucket. Both of the projects we're thinking of presenting from eLife will involve text analysis.

We're open to ideas! I know @Biostew is keen on ideas on FAIR... so we may very well have a mix of presentations in the end (:

[c-martinez]

Ok, so ML for timeseries analysis would be in scope. I think we could talk about a few eScience center projects which use ML :-)

[mkuzak]

@c-martinez are you thinking of mcfly then?

[c-martinez]

Yes. And I think we could show some results from other projects, although those would mostly use existing tools (keras, pytorch, etc), so I am not sure if they are of interest to this session.

[mkuzak]

I think if it's the application of existing tools leading to interesting research results, that should fit too.

While we're still waiting for the proposal decision...

• looping in @chreman for OK maps: he is interested in attending in person, we will try to secure travel funding
• there are probably a few potentials coming up next week at the eLife Sprint too; I'll keep an eye out for them

[emmyft]

Folks - unfortunately the proposal has not been accepted for MozFest. I am keen to run a community call on open-source projects/tools for open science using AI though, I'll be in touch with further information and you are all invited (:

Thank you very much for your interest and effort!

[c-martinez]

Hi @emmyft -- sorry to hear that :-(

Open source tools for open science using AI -- would it be suitable to organise a workshop on that in the context of nl-rse ?

[emmyft]

We are running a community call in lieu of this MozFest proposal on Oct 29 (Tuesday), 3pm GMT/4pm ET. More information here and register here !

Hope to see you on the call – and at MozFest, if you are attending (: Thanks!
