Journalisme. Privacy. My Data. Online identity. Learning interfaces. Quantified self. Crowdsourcing. The New Big Data. Top scientists from companies such as Google and Yahoo are gathered alongside leading academics at the 17th Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD) in San Diego this week.
They will present the latest techniques for wresting insights from the deluge of data produced nowadays, and for making sense of information that comes in a wider variety of forms than ever before. Twenty years ago, the only people who cared about so-called “big data”—the only ones who had enormous data sets and the motivation to try to process them—were members of the scientific community, says Usama Fayyad, executive chair of ACM’s Special Interest Group on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining and former chief data officer at Yahoo. Even then, the results of data mining were impressive. “We were able to solve significant scientific problems that were standing in the field for 30-plus years,” Fayyad says. Le Web à la puissance 2.
On ne présente plus vraiment Tim O’Reilly et John Battelle. Tim O’Reilly, des éditions O’Reilly, est devenu l’un des gourous incontournables du web. Initiateur – et promoteur – de la notion de Web 2.0 (voir notre traduction), il demeure l’un des plus fins observateurs du changement technologique. John Battelle, journaliste, auteur de La révolution Google est quant à lui l’un des spécialistes des moteurs de recherche.
Ils ont commis, à l’entrée de l’été, un texte important, essayant de définir, 5 ans après l’apparition de la notion de Web 2.0, l’émergence d’un nouveau paradigme, entre le Web 2.0 (celui des plates-formes sociales) et le Web 3.0 (le web sémantique), comme l’explique très bien Frédéric Cavazza. Un terme qui s’efforce de mettre en cohérence l’évolution du web des plateformes 2.0 vers le temps réel, les écosystèmes de données, les objets communicants… C’est là le Web Squared, ce web à la puissance 2, ce web exponentiel (1) que proposent O’Reilly et Battelle. ____________1.
