by K. Kaushik Reddy 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

Hi developers This is K. Kaushik Reddy. I had been assigned with the measuring of the ROC AUC issue <https://github.com/wikimedia/revscoring/blob/master/revscoring/scoring/stat…> to patch for, I had this ROC <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receiver_operating_characteristic> wikipage to help me with the concept of working. Since, I'm a in my beginner level, I need time to understand. *The problem is to find out why the algorithm is showing huge values at times.* I need help regarding the understanding of where the in the functions had gone wrong and what could be done? I hope I made my question clear. Kaushik

soweego: link Wikidata to large catalogs
by Marco Fossati 11 Jul '19

11 Jul '19

[You can safely skip this message if you have already seen it in the Wikidata mailing list, and pardon for the spam] Dear all, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TL;DR: soweego version 1 will be released soon. In the meanwhile, why don't you consider endorsing the next steps? https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Rapid/Hjfocs/soweego_1.1 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a pre-release notification for early feedback. Does the name *soweego* ring you a bell? It is a machine learning-based pipeline that links Wikidata to large catalogs [1]. It is a close friend of Mix'n'match [2], which mainly caters for small catalogs. The first version is almost done, and will start uploading results soon. Confident links are going to feed Wikidata via a bot [3], while others will get into Mix'n'match for curation. The next short-term steps are detailed in a rapid grant proposal [4], and I would be really grateful if you could consider an endorsement there. The soweego team has also tried its best to address the following community requests: 1. plan a sync mechanism between Wikidata and large catalogs / implement checks against external catalogs to find mismatches in Wikidata; 2. enable users to add links to new catalogs in a reasonable time. So, here is the most valuable contribution you can give to the project right now: understand how to *import a new catalog* [5]. Can't wait for your reactions. Cheers, Marco [1] https://soweego.readthedocs.io/ [2] https://tools.wmflabs.org/mix-n-match/ [3] see past contributions: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/Soweego_bo… [4] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Rapid/Hjfocs/soweego_1.1 [5] https://soweego.readthedocs.io/en/latest/new_catalog.html

Aaron H. asked me to send a message to this list more than a year ago. I'm sorry I haven't been able to because it's impossible for me to figure out the details for which to ask: http://j.mp/sligcfv However, I have managed to put together a Call for Volunteers for a Spoken Language Interest Group which is chartered with an alternative goal to figure out what to ask for here on this list. If you have questions please let me know. The form should be self-explanatory. I will report back here with the interest level in about a month. Best regards, Jim
