Last Tuesday, January 26, participants of the AAA-DS projects gathered for our 2nd project meeting at the Science Park of the UvA. The meeting was coordinated by one of our QuPiD2 team members, Davide Ceolin (Project 2: Representation of Data Quality), and was organized around the theme “Data structures, models and languages”.

Davide opened the meeting with a presentation about the different data structures, models and languages used across research fields in all AAA-DS projects.

On 8 December 2015, the Amsterdam Academic Alliance (AAA) held its launch event on Responsible Data Science at the VU University Amsterdam with over 90 attendees.

The event, chaired by Maurits Martijn from De Correspondent, comprised two keynotes presenting their perspective on responsible data science from both technical (Gusz Eiben) and moral (Jeroen van den Hoven) viewpoints, and a discussion session with panelists including Bart Voorn (Ahold group) and Berent Daan (Gemeente Amsterdam).

After the keynotes and the discussion session, we presented the current status of our work. You can find our posters through the links below:
