Abstract:Understanding the impact of corporate information publicly distributed on the Web is becoming more and more crucial. In this paper we report the result of a study that involved 130 IBM employees: we explored the correctness and extent of organisational information that can be observed from the online profiles of a company's employees. Our work contributes new insights to the study of social networks by showing that, even by considering a small fraction of the available online data, it is possible to discover a… Show more
“…New work has also emerged on the interpretation and analysis of social web data with a strong focus on cultural differences -for example, a comparison between Twitter and Sina Weibo [11]. Likewise, recent work has also shown how data analytics can benefit the workforce engagement in enterprise contexts [12].…”

Abstract. This paper presents a computational model for measuring diversity in terms of variety, balance and disparity. This model is informed by the Stirling's framework for understanding diversity from social science and underpinned by semantic techniques from computer science. A case study in learning is used to illustrate the application of the model. It is driven by the desire to broaden learners' perspectives in an increasingly diverse and inclusive society. For example, interpreting body language in a job interview may be influenced by the different background of observers. With the explosion of digital objects on social platforms, selecting the appropriate ones for learning can be challenging and time consuming. The case study uses over 2000 annotated comments from 51 YouTube videos on job interviews. Diversity indicators are produced based on the comments for each video, which in turn facilitate the ranking of the videos according to the degree of diversity in the comments for the selected domain.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
