Adventures in Little Data

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Mike Blake.

I will give a very brief sociological overview of the current metastable state of scholarly research communication, and then a technical discussion of the practical implications of literature and usage data considered as computable objects, using arXiv as exemplar. From the physics standpoint, there is a surprising amount of statistical mechanics in text-mining and machine learning.

This talk is part of the Theoretical Physics Colloquium series.
