2 July 2013
NOTE: DEG weekly meetings will move forward to 2pm instead of 4pm on Tuesdays.
Dr. Embley: will be out of town next week with Dr. Nagy; need to coordinate with David on how to treat special cases (SIDEBAR); also needs to sidebar
Joseph: working on an interface for entity resolver; has more to do there; working on some path issues
Samantha: has made a lot of progress on the form builder for form collections; has reference-to button working; worked on usability issues (DEMO); up next: annotator
Dr. Liddle: has been working with students and HyKSS paper
Tae Woo: needs to move workstation to laptop (SIDEBAR on Eclipse and SVN)
Thomas: working on pattern recognition, integration with old code; will try to run experiments with it soon, so may need to label some more data
Shin: implementing algorithms for shortest path connecting object sets recognized from queries
David: finished making exporter able to reference things from any part of the JSON; has generalizations properly propagating object memberships; (SIDEBAR)
25 June 2013
David: has been working on reference attributes; currently works with form, single field; working on more cases
Dr. Embley: working with everyone; Church History people are willing to help us annotate, so we need to get the annotation tool in shape to get started (high priority item)
Joseph: has committed ontology snippet editor code; should be up and running; tried to create form using form builder (Samantha's dev build), ran into some issues (sidebar right after with SS & SL)
Dr. Liddle: has been working with many group members, especially on JS code
Samantha: has been working on reference-to button, related elements of the form builder
Stephen: fixed some bugs in regex tool, will continue working on plugging in to annotator page (sidebar SM & SL to discuss nav bar design)
Tae Woo: is trying to run OntoES on his project; has questions about why
Thomas: continuing to implement new regular expression induction process for lists
Shin: still implementing algorithm to decide paths between object sets to generate SQL queries
18 June 2013
Dr. Lonsdale: reported on trip to Ann Arbor and LG-SOAR Workshop, and how Peter is doing; going on two more trips next two weeks
Dr. Embley: has been working with Dr. Nagy on tables; need to identify machines that no longer belong to us (sidebar); has been talking with Church about work for the fall; they want to start doing some “ground truthing”
Joseph: has been working on interface for ontology snippets; close to finishing; taking longer than originally expected due to complex interactions with other projects; will be working more on interfaces
Dr. Liddle: has been working with various students; has priorities to discuss with Samantha
Samantha: working on default button (sidebar)
Shin: got final permission from Korea to extend stay; working to generate SQL; will replace AskOntos code (sidebar)
Tae Woo: working on TWK; has found lots more details to work on with patterns; will need to coordinate with Joseph
Thomas: had fun looking for fossils and petroglyphs; working on new way to deduce regular expressions for lists in a way that uses unlabeled text better; has couple questions about Hudson
Stephen: has been working on regex tool; has popovers completed with capture groups, etc.; has a few bugs to iron out (sidebar: quick demo for Joseph)
David: fixed bug on bounding boxes in annotated components; has proposed JSON input for collections and references; would like to real JSON from the form builder as soon as possible
Things We Need to Coordinate
Need to complete Aaron's code to handle form collections and references so that Joseph can produce ground truth documents.
Need to complete OSMX conversion for form collections and references.
Need to make decision about guarantees with references: when we reference something, that something must be there. But what happens when we delete something that is referenced? Decision: let's take the easy route and disallow deletion of fields that are currently referenced.
Can “versioning” work? I.e., how far can we evolve OSMX before we break things? Answer: POM files use version numbers. We just need to make sure we increment the minor version number if we make significant changes to the schema.
Need to make OSMX schema changes for matched text.
11 June 2013
Shin: finished up paperwork to extend stay; waiting for final permission from his university; still implementing SQL generator; has had some plumbing problems to deal with this week.

Joseph: working on interface for ontology snippets; using NetBeans
GUI editor to create UI, but needs to plug it in to dataframe project; has most of interface up already; working on choosing predicate mappings; talked about OSMX schema for matched text with Dr. Embley; need sidebar with Dr. Liddle, Dr. Embley sometime
Dr. Liddle: has worked with several students on their projects
TaeWoo: still implementing TWK; almost done finding patterns; needs to meet with Joseph to make regexp to feed into FRONTIER

Dr. Embley: reported on Dagstuhl workshop; he's baa-ack!
4 June 2013
David: has been working on bugs; has more to work on
Joseph: decided to revert changes to OSMX2 schema; ran into some issues; needs a sidebar at some point on this issue (when Dr. Embley gets back); working on interface for defining ontology snippets
Dr. Liddle: worked with several students this past week on various aspects of our projects
Samantha: has been working on “default” button for annotator; has fixed “reference to” button; needs to know exactly what “default” button is supposed – sidebar today
TaeWoo: implementing TWK to make a pattern for reading from JSON file; needs right JSON package for Java – sidebar
Thomas: DONE with paper!! (w00t); ready to discuss next idea with Dr. E
