8 Geert-Jan Houben Intelligent Cities Intelligent & IT Web & (Big) Data Data Gap Computational power Data Science Time Elmar Eisemann Rendering and Navigation Techniques for Large-scale Urban Data Adaptive Data Representations Efficient Interaction and Exploration Methods Analysis and Decision-making Solutions 8

9 Geert-Jan Houben Social Data From the people For the people Science of Social Data Synergy of Technology & Humans Hayley Hung Fine-grained Measurements of Social Phenomena Non-verbal Behaviour Sensor Signals Data-driven statistical models Quantified: - social-emotional meaning - community structure 9

10 Claudia Hauff Personalised lifelong learning at scale Slide Claudia Analyseren van mens-data is niet simpel Lifelong learning is a necessity in knowledge economies Creating highly adaptive & scalable learning systems is difficult The social Web offers many new opportunities for adaptive learning Birna van Riemsdijk Social sensing on demand d Challenge: how can software decide who to approach when and how?? 10

11 Alessandro Bozzon Social Data Veracity Lack of Veracity can be an opportunity Reality can be perceived different ways Bias and diversity can be desirable data properties Goal: Harness social data veracity in a scalable and sustainable way Applications: Urban analytics Enterprise Cultural heritage Online Q&A Geert-Jan Houben Data Analytics Machines Data Creation Machines Data Interpretation Machines 11
