[[quote]] [[exploration]]: structuring [[collective knowledge]] (developing a case study).
[[metasj]] kicks off
- A follow on to an experiment that happened previously on-campus.
- [[goal]] by the [[end of this week]], we should be able to describe what a satisfying collective experiment could be. Also, we'll have [[cross-pollinated]].
[[introductions]]
- [[metasj]]
- [[agnes cameron]] works with [[metasj]], part of knowledge collaboration innovation data. In [[uk]].
- [[samir ghosh]] runs a [[maker space]]. Does [[vr]].
- [[sarah s]] [[neuroscience]] and [[machine learning]]. [[crowdsourcing]] to probe [[human perception]].
- [[amr kayid]] [[munich]] [[research engineer]] at [[open mind]]. [[reinforcement learning]].
- [[thomas renkert]] [[religious studies]] [[knowledge representation]].
- [[kevin]] (pending)
- [[favour kelvin]]
[[recap]] of approaches to collective knowledge
- [[metasj]] how much of the audience's work is about collaborative/collective effort?
  - [[samir ghosh]] used a mega [[google doc]]
  - [[metasj]] how fluid is the membership?
  - [[samir ghosh]] there's a core group of people, but the [[collective]] is nebulous.
  - [[metasj]] there's a tradeoff there.
[[metasj]] presents slides (see above).
- [[knowledge futures group]]
  - [[pubpub]]
- [[goal]]
  - choose a problem that is bigger than what you could solve yourself :)
  - we can take inspiration from [[biology]]; organisms offer lots of patterns that are useful in aggregate
  - [[city construction]]
- [[classes of models]]
  - you're probably within ~10km of a weather sensor part of a global network, all maintained by [[volunteers]].
  - [[alignment]] vs [[standardization]]
  - [[access]] vs [[catalysis]]
  - [[private service]] vs [[common good]]
    - [[ancestry.com]] vs [[iceland]] (?)
  - [[feedback loops]]
  - [[incentives]] vs [[shared vision]]
- [[examples]] from [[biology]] and [[earth]] science
  - [[inaturalist]] (!)
  - [[geograph]] (!)
    - had to come up with a local map projection not to change base assumptions they made early on :)
  - [[open street map]]
  - [[ebird]]
    - [[agnes cameron]] is a fan. Comments section is great :)
- [[examples]] from the group
  - [[flancian]] on the [[agora]]
  - [[thomas renkert]] in some countries, people are assembling lists of people that died due to [[coronavirus]]
    - [[[nytimes]] did a story on the first 10k people that died.
  - [[sarah s]] on [[imagenet]]
    - [[collective]] in more than one way:
      - corpus based on [[human annotation]]
      - also building off and on several existing efforts, like [[wordnet]]
    - related problem: updating datasets, contexts.
    - uses of [[latent space]]
  - [[agnes cameron]] on [[arena]]
    - [[push]] [[arena]]
      - https://www.are.na/agnes-cameron/what-s-are-na
      - organized in [[channels]]
        
        can be [[open]] and [[closed]]
      - [[open source]]
[[inception]] practice
- plus challenge for [[wednesday]]
- think about [[units of collaboration]] / [[units of work]]
- who are the [[audiences]]?
other interesting references
- [[protocols.io]]
- [[shader toy]]
- [[shader park]]

[[2021-01-27]]

[[quote]] [[inception]]: knitting the lacework - [[connecting sources]], [[queries, and outputs]]
- Working with [[public knowledge graphs]], building new [[visualizations]] + [[overlays]]
[[agnes cameron]] presented an example of [[underlay, interlay, overlay]] reasoning in the field of [[food sustainability]].
[[blake elias]] [[ai research]] [[covid response]]
- is [[health]] vs [[economics]] a [[zero sum game]]?
- [[analysis]]: you can optimize for two things
  - having the fewest covid cases
  - optimize for economics
- it turns out that in simulation runs the two don't look that different.
  - A Poisson distribution:
  - future cases = random[(current cases) * (reproductive number) + (imported cases)]
- aside: [[epidemic forecasting]]
- aside: [[worry dream]]
- aside: [[covid tracker]]
- [[samir ghosh]] (feedback)
- summary is: 'flattening' at a certain constant level (e.g. 100 cases/day) does not work as well as locking down hard and getting to zero (albeit temporarily)
- [[agnes cameron]] [[imperial college tracker]]
- [[pandemic game]]
[[samir ghosh]] on [[force directed graphs]]
[[favour kelvin]] on [[animal tracking]]

[[push]] [[iap21]]
- An [[experiment]] or [[mvp]] for both [[agora search]] and [[m prime]].
  - [[m prime]] is a [[problem solving]] [[framework]].
    - A [[recipe]] is a possible [[solution]] to a [[problem]] (you don't have cake yet you want cake; here's how to produce cake).
      - It includes a set of requirements or [[dependencies]].
        
        [[time]] and [[ingredients]]. Sometimes [[skill]].
      - It includes an [[algorithm]].
        
        A [[procedure]] to [[transform]] the starting conditions into final conditions (cake).
  - [[agora search]] is a [[search engine]] based on annotated crowdsourced canonical references for terms or entities.
    - [[cake]] is an entity.
    - [[cake]] stands in for any recipe in the context of this node (it is a variable).
