outline
intro
- NLP, natural language processing
- current focus: data-mining field (a data-fashion)
hypothesis
The results of data-mining software are not mined, results are created.
What elements do allow for algorithmic agreeability?
project
voice: accessible for a wider public
problem formulations:
- terminology ('mining', 'data')
- text-processing
- from: able to check results with senses (OCR), to: intuition (data-mining) [what are the differences?]
- parsing, how text is treated: as n-grams, chunks, bag-of-words, characters
- use of wordclouds
- data as autonomous entity; from: information, to: data science [what are the differences?]
algorithmic agreeability case study objects
- terminology & anthropomorphism: data 'mining' (wiki-page)
- terminology & anthropomorphism: 'machine learning'
- terminology: 'data'
- wordclouds
thesis
voice: more technical? + theoretical
theory
- solutionism & techno optimism
algorithmic agreeability case study objects
- workflow mining-software (eg. Pattern, Wecka)
- software workflow diagram
- the use of mathematical graphs & dimensions
research material
→ filesystem interface, collecting research related material (+ about the workflow)
→ wikipage for 'i-could-have-written-that' (list of prototypes & inquiries)
→ little glossary
mining as ideology
* from mining minerals to mining data
anthropomorphism
* anthropomorphic qualities of a computer (?)
* the photographic apparatus → the data apparatus (annotations)
* Joseph's (Weizenbaum) questions on Computer Power and Human Reason
text processing
* semantic math: averaging polarity rates in Pattern (text mining software package)
* notes on wordclouds
* automatic reading machines; from encoding-decoding to constructed-truths
* index of WordNet 3.0 (2006)
data as autonomous entity
* knowledge driven by data - whenever i fire a linguist, the results improve
other
* (laughter) - it's embarrassing but these are the words
* call for a syntactic view; Florian Cramer & Benjamin Bratton (text)
* EUR PhD presentation 'Sentiment Analysis of Text Guided by Semantics and Structure' (13-11-2015)
* index of Roget's thesaurus (1805)
* comparing the classification of the word 'information' Thesaurus (1911) vs. WordNet 3.0 (2006)
