I have to level with you. I would not be considering writing and running a #socialWeb platform for #writers if I did not have a few itches to scratch.

One itch is #classification. #Hashtags are nicely nonlinear. They are simple, and for being simple, they are effective. But, in giving authors direct access to declare the index their work appears in, you throw out all of the potential benefits modern approaches to indexing and search could yield. EG: stemming.
Ancient Greek and Roman mythology: Religion
Modern First Nations beliefs and spirituality: History: Indians of North America
Version 1.3 of the automated subject subject indexing tool #Annif has been released!
This release introduces support for the EstNLTK analyzer for better Estonian lemmatization 
, optimizations to the MLLM backend, as well as maintenance and bug fixes, including better file permissions in multi-user environments.
Is there a data structure that can sensibly handle multiple hierarchical classification systems?
e.g. an Orange, in terms of phylogeny is
Plantae->Eudicot->...->Citrus->sinensis
and in terms of usefulness, is
Thing->Food->fruit->orange
(and it could have multiple parents in this taxonomy, e.g. cleaning product)
Bonus points for cool visualisations of this kind information.
New review: How is the living world organized and classified? Encyclopaedic in scope yet compelling to read, the deeply researched Kingdoms, Empires, & Domains is an 851-page behemoth that surveys 26 centuries of our changing understanding.

"When actions must be justified in the language of data, then the limitations inherent in data collection become limitations on human values."
An essay on what is lost, forgotten, or ignored during data collection, and the consequences on shaping politics, diminishing the role of expertise, and discounting factors that may be truly important.

Annotating Arcane Screenshots using Azure OpenAI, The Hard Way
To make a long story short, Arcane ended yesterday, and during some idle browsing I came across a pretty amazing set of wallpapers that someone generated by taking 4K frames and up(...)

The #LibraryOfCongress #classification manual is hilarious. TR717.3 is photography of machinery, special subjects. The three special subjects listed are airplanes, automobiles, and sex machines.
But the manual instructs that collections of photographs in certain fields be classed with those fields. That means all your books of photos of sex machines have to go in the sex machine section, while books about how to photograph sex machines go in TR717.3.S49.

Skosmos is an open source tool for publishing SKOS controlled vocabularies on the web.
The upcoming Skosmos 3 release, focuses on reimplementing the user interface with modern frameworks. I will demonstrate the current status of Skosmos 3, discuss its impact on deployments and end users.
We will organize an #Annif tutorial session "Introduction to the Annif automated indexing tool" at the #SWIB24 online conference on 25th November 2024, 9-13 CET! It's free, but you need to sign up through the SWIB Discourse platform: https://forum.swib.org/t/workshop-introduction-to-annif-automated-indexing-tool-category/139
The workshop is based on the Annif tutorial materials, created by the National Library of Finland and ZBW: https://github.com/NatLibFi/Annif-tutorial
The automated subject indexing tool #Annif version 1.2 has been released! This release adds API and CLI functionality for language detection (based on the #Simplemma library), automated download of NLTK data packages, full support for Python 3.12, a few bug fixes and upgraded dependencies.
