Wolfram Data Summit 2012 Presentations
Presentations have been posted from the Wolfram Data Summit 2012:
I looked at:
“The Trouble with House Elves: Computational Folkloristics, Classification, and Hypergraphs” Timothy Tangherlini, Professor, UCLA James Abello, Research Professor, DIMACS – Rutgers University
first. 😉
Would like to see a video of the presentation. Pointers anyone?
Close as I can imagine to being a topic map without using the phrase “topic map.”
