#AoIR2024 Satellite Conference on Coordinated Sharing Behavior Detection
by Marino, Giada 12 Aug '24

12 Aug '24

Dear colleagues, We would like to advertise this AoIR satellite event. *Coordinated Sharing Behavior Detection Conference* *A one-day event bringing together some of the world's leading experts to showcase, discuss, and advance the state of the art in multimodal and cross-platform coordinated behavior detection.* Tuesday, 29 October 2024 University of Sheffield, Jessop Building - Room G03 - ensemble room 1 It will also be possible to attend the conference remotely. Room seats are limited to 32. To attend it is necessary to register here <https://sites.google.com/uniurb.it/csbdetectionconf/home#h.h23pvc23k73w>. The role of social media platforms during protests has been extensively documented, showing how these platforms facilitate coordination and amplify the voices of marginalized groups. However, the same tactics used by oppressed minorities can be repurposed by extremists, hate groups, trolls, and marketers. This recognition has led social media platforms, policymakers, and scholars to acknowledge the potential dangers. Consequently, platforms enforce actions against coordinated behaviors that violate community standards, with policies designed to be neutral regarding the content shared. Since 2016, there has been a shift towards focusing on behavior rather than content to combat disinformation. This strategy avoids the limitations of content-based approaches and protects platforms from accusations of arbitrating truth. The concept of "coordinated inauthentic behavior," introduced by Nathaniel Gleicher of Facebook (now Meta), adds a layer of complexity by requiring authenticity. While some ambiguity is necessary to combat adversarial tactics aimed at evading detection, the lack of clear definitions and operationalization poses significant challenges for external researchers attempting to detect coordinated behavior on social media. Scholars have developed open-source software toolkits to detect coordinated behavior, emphasizing the need to identify similar actions, such as sharing the same link or post in a closely timed and repetitive manner. The diverse forms of similarity, varying social media platforms, and evolving user behaviors make setting fixed detection thresholds difficult, often requiring case-by-case handling. The lack of universally recognized thresholds complicates the use of traditional machine learning approaches that rely on labeled datasets. In this context, our upcoming conference, part of the vera.ai project's task "Tackling Coordinated Sharing Behavior with Network Science Methods," aims to explore the origins of coordinated behavior on social media, the challenges in developing detection tools, and the frontiers of cross-platform and multimodal detection. We will also address issues related to ethics and accountability and reflect on the role of coordination in light of the emergence of generative AI. *Keynote:* Timothy Graham (Queensland University of Technology) *Speakers: *Daniel Angus (Queensland University of Technology), Felipe Bonow Soares (London College of Communication), Ahmad Zareie (University of Sheffield), Stefano Cresci (CNR), Fabio Giglietto (University of Urbino), Raquel Recuero (Universidade Federal de Pelotas/Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul), Nicola Righetti (University of Urbino), Aytalina Kulichkina (University of Vienna), Daniel Thiele (Weizenbaum Institute - Freie Universität Berlin), Miriam Milzner (Weizenbaum Institute - Freie Universität Berlin), Luca Rossi (IT University of Copenhagen), Jakob Kristensen (Roskilde University Denmark) The conference is organized by the VeraAI <https://www.veraai.eu/home> consortium in partnership with SOBIGDATA++ <https://plusplus.sobigdata.eu/> and QUT Digital Media Research Center and hosted by the School of Computer Science of the University of Sheffield.

Final CALL: Digital Data Processing 2024
by ijwa dline.info 12 Aug '24

12 Aug '24

Fourth International Conference on Digital Data Processing (DDP 2024) Yeshiva University. New York. US September 30-October 01, 2024 (www.socio.org.uk/ddp) (IEEE Xplore indexed) As technology advances in different sub-domains of computing, data-driven models are becoming increasingly important. The data-dependent world now faces many challenges in terms of data accuracy and data privacy. High-impact advancements include machine learning, artificial intelligence, deep learning and many more. Data is growing exponentially in terms of diversity and complexity. One organization or industry processes over a few million transactions per hour and stores hundreds of billions of data. We live in a world with a great need for more efficient data analysis and processing. Data analytics can reveal hidden patterns, complex relationships, internal information relations, and even segmentation. Data applications have opened up new possibilities in every aspect of our lives. Studying data and its structure, dynamics, and modern data technologies is ongoing. There is a great deal of literature and research on data management, but it does not address the data processing needs. Many studies focus on developing models and systems for analyzing large datasets. Data analysis leads to application domains that have a systematic impact on decisions. The knowledge gained from the data analysis enables the generation of critical information for multiple domains. In this conference, we review and discuss the latest trends in data management, the opportunities and challenges, and how they have affected organizations' ability to develop effective business and technology strategies and stay up-to-date in data technology. We also highlight current open research directions in data analytics that need further attention. The proposed conference will discuss topics not limited to Data applications in various domains and activities Data in cloud Real-world data processing Data inaccuracy and reliability issues Data Ecosystem Business Analytics New data analytics techniques Physical and management challenges Synthetic data Data synthesis Crowdsourcing and Sensing Data modelling Deep learning techniques Data fusion Descriptive analytics, Diagnostic analytics, Predictive Analytics, and Prescriptive analytics Machine learning impact on data processing Network optimization Data in Biomedical Engineering Data in Materials science and mechanics Data handling and applications in domains Wireless Networking Data Management Data of Electronic & Embedded Systems Multi-media Systems Data Artificial Intelligence Models and Systems Data E-Computing Data Renewable Energies Data General Chair Honggang Wang, Yeshiva University, USA Program Chairs Youshan Zhang, Yeshiva University, USA Ezendu Ariwa, Warwick University, UK Simon Fong, University of Macau, Macau Program Co-chairs Martin Lopez Nores, University of Vigo, Spain Keynote Speakers 1.

11 Aug '24

https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_24_3761 ...X fails to provide access to its public data to researchers in line with > the conditions set out in the DSA. In particular, X prohibits eligible > researchers from independently accessing its public data, such as by > scraping, as stated in its terms of service. In addition, X's process to > grant eligible researchers access to its application programming interface > (API) appears to dissuade researchers from carrying out their research > projects or leave them with no other choice than to pay disproportionally > high fees. If the Commission's preliminary views were to be ultimately confirmed, the > Commission would adopt a non-compliance decision finding that X is in > breach of Articles 25, 39 and 40(12) of the DSA. Such a decision could > entail fines of up to 6% of the total worldwide annual turnover of the > provider, and order the provider to take measures to address the breach. A > non-compliance decision may also trigger an enhanced supervision period to > ensure compliance with the measures the provider intends to take to remedy > the breach. The Commission can also impose periodic penalty payments to > compel a platform to comply. -- -------------------------------------- Joly MacFie +12185659365 -------------------------------------- -
