Updates

  • Colorado (Alex)

    • Starting publications curation using Symplectic Elements for 2013 faculty reporting cycle -- Google Scholar and Researcher ID have both come up

      • can do an author search in your university’s domain and find several hundred faculty, a number of whom have curated their entries

      • Elements has the ability for users to import RIS (from Endnote) or Bibtex (from Google Scholar) -- but Google Scholar doesn’t give you a batch export capability for a group of authors (just 1 item at a time)

      • Can possibly scrape a Google Scholar record of DOIs and then go to the CrossRef publication search

      • Paul -- should be aware that the quality of the data harvested in Google Scholar may come from a variety of sources of uneven quality, so the citations may not be as pristine as a PubMed record

    • Planning how to test 1.6 data migration to test 1.6 and prepare for modifying our Harvester ingest

  • Cornell (Jon, Jim, Tim, BrianL)

  • Duke (Patrick) -- Still moving forward on artistic works, with mockup data in a test instance and working on display in VIVO; still working on how to get the data in from Elements; will push back Arts & Sciences rollout for a bit

  • EPA

  • Florida (Chris) -- Apps & Tools 2nd meeting Tuesday -- demo of Vagrant virtual machine for VIVO to make it easier to build and test VIVO. Has a new template for a SPARQL query example with a link to test on the UF SPARQL endpoint -- the first sample tests getting a person’s positions via their email address -- all the information is in the meeting notes on the wiki, and recorded the call as a webcast posted to YouTube, including the demos

    • next meeting on the 24th at 8 am to attract international collaborators to the call

    • will continue to refine the working group goals

    • will hope to have more SPARQL examples to show

    • will hope to have a working Vagrant virtual machine with sample data, that will be much smaller than the current virtual machine

  • Memorial (Max) -- working on the front end with a web developer and back end mapping the Yaffle database schema to the VIVO ontology

  • NYU (Yin) -- couldn’t make call. no updates.

  • RPI

  • Scripps

  • Stony Brook (Tammy) -- recruiting more developers to semantic web projects (Java developers) in their IT group -- data integration for additional projects. Trying the total immersion technique.

  • Texas A&M

  • UCLA

  • Virginia Tech (Julie) -- no special update, but working with central IT to get software installed and configured; going well.

  • Weill Cornell (Paul) -- faculty evaluation tool in use for first time -- giving faculty the chance to accept or reject pubs, and they were pleasantly surprised to see very few rejected publications and many of those were dupes -- Ted at Brown mentioned the CrossRef test file submission feature that returns DOIs, so can test a batch pasted in by a faculty member more easily against what have in VIVO already

    • Question for the group: Is it legitimate to have multiple labels for an individual?

    • Certainly for multiple languages; but in other circumstances? When there is a semantic difference, it seems like another property should be used; otherwise there’s no reason to have a 2nd label

    • Sometimes duplicates occur where one is an untyped literal (better for adding labels in different languages) vs. a literal types as a string (less flexible)

Notable list traffic

Language deployment and change to the 3-tier build (Jim)

VIVO's implementation of linked data (Jim)

Content negotiation for VIVO and for VIVO's SPARQL endpoint

Configuring Fuseki

Image upload – see  Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration.
