The Metadata Coverage Index (MCI): A standardized metric for quantifying database metadata richness
Variability in the extent of the descriptions of data ('metadata') held in public repositories forces users to assess the quality of records individually, which rapidly becomes impractical. The scoring of records on the richness of their description provides a simple, objective proxy measure for quality that enables filtering that supports downstream analysis. Pivotally, such descriptions shoul...
متن کاملMetaData for Database Mining
At present, a machine learning application is accomplished by carefully crafting a single table from an often complex, multi-table database. The metadata necessary to create this table is rarely formally recorded, and is sometimes implicit in the structure of the database or the typing of the attributes. We categorize the types of metadata that we have encountered in our work with machine learn...
متن کاملStandardized Metadata for Education: a Status Report
This paper starts with a brief background to worldwide standardization activities in the field of educational technologies. It then focuses on the specific area of metadata, and introduces the two most relevant approaches there: IEEE LTSC LOM and DC-Education. We review how different communities adopt and support educational metadata for their constituencies. This paper can be considered as a f...
متن کاملAssembling Metadata for Database Forensics
Since information is often a primary target in a computer crime, organizations that store their information in database management systems (DBMSs) must develop a capability to perform database forensics. This paper describes a database forensic method that transforms a DBMS into the required state for a database forensic investigation. The method segments a DBMS into four abstract layers that s...
متن کاملUsing Grid-Enabled Distributed Metadata Database to Index DICOM-SR
Integrating medical data at inter-centre level implies many challenges that are being tackled from many disciplines and technologies. Medical informatics have applied an important effort on describing and standardizing Electronic Health Records, and specially standardisation has achieved an important extent on Medical Imaging. Grid technologies have been extensively used to deal with multi-doma...
