Agenda

Notes 

Wiki pages - VIVO documentation

There was an issue with a macro in the wiki documentation pages for VIVO. It has been resolved by the Lyrasis admin team. 

How to show the number of profiles or publications along with the organisation name: on the homepage department section

https://vivo-project.slack.com/archives/C8RL9L98A/p1710765114849639

Dragan and Georgy discussed the potential of displaying the number of researchers affiliated with a specific organization and the number of their publications on the homepage. They deliberated on the complexity of presenting these numbers, and whether it would be feasible using Sparkle queries. Georgy proposed creating a template with Sparkle query and including it where necessary. Dragan asked whether it might be implemented by recently merged data getter freemarker directive. Georgy explained it is possible, but it can be also implemented by using older versions of VIVO (prior to VIVO 1.15 which is in the preparation at the moment).

SPARQL issue

https://vivo-project.slack.com/archives/C8RL9L98A/p1710755682649359

Dragan and Michel discussed whether openAI can help in resolving issues like this. Michel is trying to learn an instance of domain-specific large language model to be aware of the VIVO ontology in order to be capable of resolving some issues like this one. Michel will report when have more results (in a month or two).
