Beskrivning

Data Democracy: At the Nexus of Artificial Intelligence, Software Development, and Knowledge Engineering provides a manifesto to data democracy. After reading the chapters of this book, you are informed and suitably warned! You are already part of the data republic, and you (and all of us) need to ensure that our data fall in the right hands. Everything you click, buy, swipe, try, sell, drive, or fly is a data point. But who owns the data? At this point, not you! You do not even have access to most of it. The next best empire of our planet is one who owns and controls the world's best dataset. If you consume or create data, if you are a citizen of the data republic (willingly or grudgingly), and if you are interested in making a decision or finding the truth through data-driven analysis, this book is for you. A group of experts, academics, data science researchers, and industry practitioners gathered to write this manifesto about data democracy.



  • The future of the data republic, life within a data democracy, and our digital freedoms
  • An in-depth analysis of open science, open data, open source software, and their future challenges
  • A comprehensive review of data democracy's implications within domains such as: healthcare, space exploration, earth sciences, business, and psychology
  • The democratization of Artificial Intelligence (AI), and data issues such as: Bias, imbalance, context, and knowledge extraction
  • A systematic review of AI methods applied to software engineering problems

Recensioner i media

"Not sure what data democracy is? But your interest is piqued because it has sounds “data” in the title? Well, you should be interested and you’ll understand the term well if you give Data Democracy a thorough read.The author claims the book to be a manifesto for data democracy, and it succeeds in that challenge. Everybody is part of the “data republic” and therefore needs to be aware of their data… who has access to it, how they got access to it, how it is being used, how it is protected, and more. In short, data democracy is the concept of sharing data instead of letting it be monopolized by a few large concerns. Of course, it is not quite that simple, so a book is needed… this book. If you consume or create data – and at this point who does not – you will benefit by reading Data Democracy." --Data and Technology Today
