This week my mentor was out of town on a trip to Scotland. Without much communication I took careful steps to research about the future steps that we’re were discussing on making which included creating an interactive .svg file that would be incorporated into the GUI. So far I was Continue reading Week 7: Researching
After generating all information together in one file, I did cross-reference by hand to match the same person with similar names. It took a lot time because I need to go back to check the original data and search online to confirm that the similar names represent the same person. Continue reading Week Seven
It’s a common cliché that a picture is worth a thousand words. I’ve been trying this week to create a visual that represents the metric environment. Using the data life cycle I’ve been examining where potential metrics can be recorded, and what form that those metrics might take. I’ve been Continue reading A picture takes a thousand words
The plan for this week is to begin with the implementation of ESOR front end. After the approval of the design, I started working on the development part related to the uploading and storage functionalities. We had to take care of version control, file formats and size of the ontologies Continue reading Week 6: Update on ESOR
This week I focused on integrating other useful information, such as work role and sector, all together with other visualization data. Those data are not simple integer, but also some unorganized phrases or sentences. Therefore, I switched the programming language to Python. It was not easy at first, but the Continue reading Week Six
This week I had a presentation with a few Biology researchers from UIUC. I would be presenting the GUI I have created so far after the Yes Workflow team presented our project to several researchers who are interested in working and displaying their own scripts into workflows. Although having been Continue reading Week 6: Presentation Week
It’s been a busy month for me and my Citsci.org collaborators, but we have almost completed our PLOS Biology community page paper. We wrote it together in Google docs, which was an interesting experience, and will submit it at the end of this month. If the editors are happy with it, Continue reading How do you make metadata entry appealing to project managers?
This week I worked more with the user’s side of interactivity with the GUI. I added features such as being able to make real-time changes to the graph in a tab interface as well as scroll through the image. I had to implement an algorithm for the Tab Widget of Continue reading Week 5: Working with GUI Interactivity
This week’s focus was on the front end design for ESOR. The idea was to design a front end for the ESOR back end core functionalities enabling the users to upload an ontology, store the uploaded ontology, process the data in the ontology, and basic querying which involves searching and Continue reading Week 5: Update on ESOR
One of the challenges of this project has been scope. Should I be examining how we can measure the use of datasets from DataONE? Should I be looking at the broader impact of the DataONE website? Or should I be looking at the impact of data repositories in science? When Continue reading DMP’s
