- ItemAn AI-based open recommender system for personalized labor market driven education(Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier Science, 2022) Tavakoli, Mohammadreza; Faraji, Abdolali; Vrolijk, Jarno; Molavi, Mohammadreza; Mol, Stefan T.; Kismihók, GáborAttaining those skills that match labor market demand is getting increasingly complicated, not in the last place in engineering education, as prerequisite knowledge, skills, and abilities are evolving dynamically through an uncontrollable and seemingly unpredictable process. Anticipating and addressing such dynamism is a fundamental challenge to twenty-first century education. The burgeoning availability of data, not only on the demand side but also on the supply side (in the form of open educational resources) coupled with smart technologies, may provide a fertile ground for addressing this challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel, Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven approach to the development of an open, personalized, and labor market oriented learning recommender system, called eDoer. We discuss the complete system development cycle starting with a systematic user requirements gathering, and followed by system design, implementation, and validation. Our recommender prototype (1) derives the skill requirements for particular occupations through an analysis of online job vacancy announcements
- Item14 Years of PID services at the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB): Connected frameworks, research data and lessons learned from a National Research Library perspective(Paris : CODATA, 2017) Kraft, Angelina; Dreyer, Britta; Löwe, Peter; Ziedorn, FraukeIn an ideal research world, any scientific content should be citable and the coherent content, as well as the citation itself, should be persistent. However, today’s scientists do not only produce traditional research papers – they produce comprehensive digital resources and collections. TIB’s mission is to develop a supportive framework for a sustainable access to such digital content – focusing on areas of engineering as well as architecture, chemistry, information technology, mathematics and physics. The term digital content comprises all digitally available resources such as audiovisual media, databases, texts, images, spreadsheets, digital lab journals, multimedia, 3D objects, statistics and software code. In executing this mission, TIB provides services for the management of digital content during ongoing and for finished research. This includes: • a technical and administrative infrastructure for indexing, cataloguing, DOI registration and licensing for text and digital objects, namely the TIB DOI registration which is active since 2005, • the administration of the ORCID DE consortium, an institutional network fostering the adoption of ORCID across academic institutions in Germany, • training and consultancy for data management, complemented with a digital repository for the deposition and provision of accessible, traceable and citable research data (RADAR), • a Research and Development Department where innovative projects focus on the visualization and the sustainable access to digital information, and • the development of a supportive framework within the German research data community which accompanies the life cycle of scientific knowledge generation and transfer. Its goal is to harmonize (meta)data display and exchange primarily on a national level (LEIBNIZ DATA project).
- ItemResponsible Knowledge Management in Energy Data Ecosystems(Basel : MDPI, 2022) Janev, Valentina; Vidal, Maria-Esther; Pujić, Dea; Popadić, Dušan; Iglesias, Enrique; Sakor, Ahmad; Čampa, AndrejThis paper analyzes the challenges and requirements of establishing energy data ecosystems (EDEs) as data-driven infrastructures that overcome the limitations of currently fragmented energy applications. It proposes a new data- and knowledge-driven approach for management and processing. This approach aims to extend the analytics services portfolio of various energy stakeholders and achieve two-way flows of electricity and information for optimized generation, distribution, and electricity consumption. The approach is based on semantic technologies to create knowledge-based systems that will aid machines in integrating and processing resources contextually and intelligently. Thus, a paradigm shift in the energy data value chain is proposed towards transparency and the responsible management of data and knowledge exchanged by the various stakeholders of an energy data space. The approach can contribute to innovative energy management and the adoption of new business models in future energy data spaces.
- ItemA study of institutional spending on open access publication fees in Germany(London : PeerJ, 2016) Jahn, Najko; Tullney, MarcoPublication fees as a revenue source for open access publishing hold a prominent place on the agendas of researchers, policy makers, and academic publishers. This study contributes to the evolving empirical basis for funding these charges and examines how much German universities and research organisations spent on open access publication fees. Using self-reported cost data from the Open APC initiative, the analysis focused on the amount that was being spent on publication fees, and compared these expenditure with data from related Austrian (FWF) and UK (Wellcome Trust, Jisc) initiatives, in terms of both size and the proportion of articles being published in fully and hybrid open access journals. We also investigated how thoroughly self-reported articles were indexed in Crossref, a DOI minting agency for scholarly literature, and analysed how the institutional spending was distributed across publishers and journal titles. According to self-reported data from 30 German universities and research organisations between 2005 and 2015, expenditures on open access publication fees increased over the years in Germany and amounted to € 9,627,537 for 7,417 open access journal articles. The average payment was € 1,298, and the median was € 1,231. A total of 94% of the total article volume included in the study was supported in accordance with the price cap of € 2,000, a limit imposed by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) as part of its funding activities for open access funding at German universities. Expenditures varied considerably at the institutional level. There were also differences in how much the institutions spent per journal and publisher. These differences reflect, at least in part, the varying pricing schemes in place including discounted publication fees. With an indexing coverage of 99%, Crossref thoroughly indexed the open access journals articles included in the study. A comparison with the related openly available cost data from Austria and the UK revealed that German universities and research organisations primarily funded articles in fully open access journals. By contrast, articles in hybrid journal accounted for the largest share of spending according to the Austrian and UK data. Fees paid for hybrid journals were on average more expensive than those paid for fully open access journals.
- ItemLearning – Connecting – Relaxing : TIB/UB – Relaunching the public spaces(2014) Franzkowiak, AnetteIt is no easy task to remodel public spaces within a main library building during normal business operations – it requires a great deal of patience and sensitivity on the part of patrons, librarians and architects alike. This article provides an overview of the renovation work performed over the last four years which, I am sure you will agree, has been worth the effort.
- ItemWorkflow management of sprints and software tests: Coordination, consensus, and cooperation in the enterprise wiki of the German National Library of Science and Technology(New York, NY : International Institute for Science, Technology and Education, 2016) Strobel, SvenThis paper discusses the workflow management of sprints and software tests at the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) and pays special attention to how the enterprise wiki can be used to support forms of group interaction such as coordination, consensus (finding), and cooperation. The enterprise wiki helps to organize who has to do what by when (coordination). At TIB, it essentially supports the project managers in planning, organizing, and controlling the workflows of the project. Moreover, it facilitates and accelerates the decision making within the team (consensus) and helps the team members to share knowledge and develop ideas by editing common documents (cooperation). The workflows for sprints and software tests as well as their management are illustrated by the example of the TIB project relaunching the TIB|AV-Portal. The paper argues that establishing workflows in the wiki makes collaborative working more efficient and easier to handle. This is shown with respect to the team’s coordination, consensus finding, and cooperation in the project. The paper also specifies the TIB concepts for sprints – a method to develop concepts collaboratively – and software tests. The topic discussed here relates to subject areas such as knowledge management and project management and, more specifically, to collaborative working and computer-supported cooperative work.
- ItemTIB’s Portal for audiovisual media: New ways of indexing and retrieval(Los Angeles : IFLA, 2014) Neumann, Janna; Plank, MargretThe German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) is developing a web-based platform for audiovisual media. The forthcoming audiovisual portal optimizes access to scientific videos such as computer animations, lecture and conference recordings. TIB’s AV- Portal offers new methods for searching within videos enabled by automated video analysis with scene, speech, text and image recognition. Search results are connected to new knowledge by linking the data semantically. This paper aims at describing the TIB’s portal for audiovisualmedia and the multimedia retrieval technologies as well as the added value for libraries and their users.
- ItemReduced reference image and video quality assessments: review of methods(New York, NY : Hindawi Publishing Corp., 2022) Dost, Shahi; Saud, Faryal; Shabbir, Maham; Khan, Muhammad Gufran; Shahid, Muhammad; Lovstrom, BennyWith the growing demand for image and video-based applications, the requirements of consistent quality assessment metrics of image and video have increased. Different approaches have been proposed in the literature to estimate the perceptual quality of images and videos. These approaches can be divided into three main categories; full reference (FR), reduced reference (RR) and no-reference (NR). In RR methods, instead of providing the original image or video as a reference, we need to provide certain features (i.e., texture, edges, etc.) of the original image or video for quality assessment. During the last decade, RR-based quality assessment has been a popular research area for a variety of applications such as social media, online games, and video streaming. In this paper, we present review and classification of the latest research work on RR-based image and video quality assessment. We have also summarized different databases used in the field of 2D and 3D image and video quality assessment. This paper would be helpful for specialists and researchers to stay well-informed about recent progress of RR-based image and video quality assessment. The review and classification presented in this paper will also be useful to gain understanding of multimedia quality assessment and state-of-the-art approaches used for the analysis. In addition, it will help the reader select appropriate quality assessment methods and parameters for their respective applications.
