Reproducibility of Data-Oriented Experiments in e-Science (Dagstuhl Seminar 16041)

Authors: Juliana Freire, Norbert Fuhr, and Andreas Rauber

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 6, Issue 1 (2016)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 16041 "Reproducibility of Data-Oriented Experiments in e-Science". In many subfields of computer science, experiments play an important role. Besides theoretic properties of algorithms or methods, their effectiveness and performance often can only be validated via experimentation. In most of these cases, the experimental results depend on the input data, settings for input parameters, and potentially on characteristics of the computational environment where the experiments were designed and run. Unfortunately, most computational experiments are specified only informally in papers, where experimental results are briefly described in figure captions; the code that produced the results is seldom available. This has serious implications. Scientific discoveries do not happen in isolation. Important advances are often the result of sequences of smaller, less significant steps. In the absence of results that are fully documented, reproducible, and generalizable, it becomes hard to re-use and extend these results. Besides hindering the ability of others to leverage our work, and consequently limiting the impact of our field, the absence of reproducibility experiments also puts our reputation at stake, since reliability and validity of empiric results are basic scientific principles. This seminar brought together experts from various sub-fields of computer science to create a joint understanding of the problems of reproducibility of experiments, discussing existing solutions and impediments, and proposing ways to overcome current limitations.

Music Information Technology and Professional Stakeholder Audiences: Mind the Adoption Gap

Authors: Cynthia C.S. Liem, Andreas Rauber, Thomas Lidy, Richard Lewis, Christopher Raphael, Joshua D. Reiss, Tim Crawford, and Alan Hanjalic

Published in: Dagstuhl Follow-Ups, Volume 3, Multimodal Music Processing (2012)


Abstract
The academic discipline focusing on the processing and organization of digital music information, commonly known as Music Information Retrieval (MIR), has multidisciplinary roots and interests. Thus, MIR technologies have the potential to have impact across disciplinary boundaries and to enhance the handling of music information in many different user communities. However, in practice, many MIR research agenda items appear to have a hard time leaving the lab in order to be widely adopted by their intended audiences. On one hand, this is because the MIR field still is relatively young, and technologies therefore need to mature. On the other hand, there may be deeper, more fundamental challenges with regard to the user audience. In this contribution, we discuss MIR technology adoption issues that were experienced with professional music stakeholders in audio mixing, performance, musicology and sales industry. Many of these stakeholders have mindsets and priorities that differ considerably from those of most MIR academics, influencing their reception of new MIR technology. We mention the major observed differences and their backgrounds, and argue that these are essential to be taken into account to allow for truly successful cross-disciplinary collaboration and technology adoption in MIR.

10291 Abstracts Collection – Automation in Digital Preservation

Authors: Jean-Pierre Chanod, Vittore Casarosa, Milena Dobreva, Andreas Rauber, and Seamus Ross

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10291, Automation in Digital Preservation (2010)


Abstract
Digital Preservation has evolved into a specialized, interdisciplinary research discipline of its own, seeing significant increases in terms of research capacity, results, but also challenges. However, with this specialization and subsequent formation of a dedicated subgroup of researchers active in this field, limitations of the challenges addressed can be observed. Digital preservation research may seem to react to problems arising, fixing problems that exist now, rather than proactively researching new solutions that may be applicable only after a few years of maturing. Recognising the benefits of bringing together researchers and practitioners with various professional backgrounds related to digital preservation, a seminar was organized in Schloss Dagstuhl, at the Leibniz Center for Informatics (18-23 July 2010), with the aim of addressing the current digital preservation challenges, with a specific focus on the automation aspects in this field. The main goal of the seminar was to outline some research challenges in digital preservation, providing a number of “research questions” that could be immediately tackled, e.g. in Doctoral Thesis. The seminar intended also to highlight the need for the digital preservation community to reach out to IT research and other research communities outside the immediate digital preservation domain, in order to jointly develop solutions.
