The volume commemorates the bicentennial of Ada’s birth in December 1815, celebrating her many achievements as well as the impact of her work which reverberated widely since the late 19th century. This is a unique contribution to a resurgence in Lovelace scholarship, thanks to the expanding influence of women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. ACM Books is a new series of high quality books for the computer science community, published by the Association for Computing Machinery with Morgan & Claypool Publishers. Marquette University’s Third Annual ETHICS OF BIG DATA SYMPOSIUM The emerging world of big data brings with it ethical, social and legal issues. Are you prepared to navigate the challenges and the opportunities? Friday, April 27 8 a.m. – Noon Marquette University Milwaukee, Wisconsin For event information and registration, go to marquette.edu/ethics-of-big-data or contact Dr. Thomas Kaczmarek at [email protected] or 414.288.6734. The deployment of big data brings desirable opportunities to understand, recommend and advise. But the sensitivity of personal data and unintended consequences of algorithmic decisions present us with ethical and moral decisions. The symposium will cover ethical and legal considerations for practitioners, including discussions and dilemmas of agency, fairness, public perception and privacy. Hosted by Northwestern Mutual.

  • An Online Database for Behavioural Phenotypes of the Nematode Caenorhabditis Elegans
    An online database for behavioural phenotypes of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans Tadas Jucikas Darwin College A thesis submitted on the 15th of August, 2013 for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy I would like to dedicate this thesis to my loving grandmother Gabriel_e,devoted parents Janina and Pranciˇskusand caring siblings Kristina and Viktoras. I am humbled and truly grateful for your support. Abstract Advances in the fields of neurobiology, genomics, computer imaging and bioinfor- matics provide a favorable landscape to study genetic and molecular mechanisms of model organism behaviour. However, manual animal observation and char- acterization has been an intrinsically subjective and time consuming effort. It encouraged the development of computer aided automatic tracking systems ca- pable of recording animal behaviour and storing the data for further analysis. For the nematode C. elegans, an array of worm trackers have been built focus- ing on high spatial and temporal resolution or on optimizing for higher through- put and imaging multiple worms at once. Early worm trackers quantified animal locomotion and described diverse groups of neural functions like proprioception, synaptic transmission and neuromodulation. However, behavioural phenotypes have been described only for a small fraction of genes despite evidence that the majority of genes are needed for wild type fitness. Emergence of reverse genetics and RNA interference based screens have greatly outstripped the phenotyping capability of C. elegans research community. In addition, the algorithms and techniques used were not based on community standards and prevented pooling behavioural data collected in different research groups. To address the challenges of large scale behavioural phenotyping screens this thesis describes a platform that uses single worm trackers for high throughput analysis of behaviour experiments.
