- Leveraging Trust: Why is it so hard?(CIO UK Virtual Series - June Edition 2023) How do we create data decision transparency for our colleagues ? Allowing them to make ethical and informed business decisions without worrying about where the data came from or the quality of it? How do we get our colleagues to implicitly trust the information they consume on a daily basis? In this session Robin Miller takes us on his incredible data journey where he shares how he has forged a strong data foundation of Data Governance, Quality and Metadata through people, culture and process and then underpinned the capabilities through modern data governance and master data technologies The next crucial phase of the Data Strategy is about how one can leverage the value and implement the teams, processes and enabling technology for the future analytics journey. Opening up the data marketplace and making it available to colleagues. In this session we learn: How to bring teams together in a more pragmatic and realistic way. Agile approaches to delivering data. Building new data pipelines and moving towards data as a product. Where expectations meet the reality of the journey.
- From Cones to Words: Augmenting Colour Communication Within and Across Languages.(CIO UK Virtual Series - June Edition 2023) Colour naming links vision and speech. It refers to our intriguing cognitive capacity to group millions of discriminable colours into a smaller set of categories named, for example, yellow‚ or ‚teal or blue. Since 2009, we have led an international collaborative project to collect unconstrained colour names with their corresponding colour ranges through a crowdsourcing experiment with thousands of observers in tens of languages (accessible at https://colournaming.com) and compared the results against psychophysical methods performed in controlled laboratory viewing conditions and in the field. We developed robust computational tools trained by these multilingual datasets to automate the colour naming task across the full colour gamut and we are now expanding our data collection and computational methods to automate the colour naming task in complex scenes. Through discussion with key companies in the industry, we have identified specific gaps in current capability with immediate applicability for our tools.
