If you want to lend a hand for interesting projects, here are some of my current favorites:
- building a global library catalog index with Elasticsearch of all the open data / metadata on academic library servers, complete with harvester and updater, SRU, OAI etc. A starting point for SRU implementation is https://github.com/xbib/elasticsearch-sru - implementing a plugin for Elasticsearch that turns ES into a W3C Linked Data Platform https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/ldpwg/raw-file/default/ldp-primer/ldp-primer.html, with HTTP PATCH support, JSON Patch RFC 6902, maybe even a Sparql-to-ES DSL translator - a harvester/pull plugin framework for ES, in order to supersede the river singleton concept, with provisioning for all kind of different sources, e.g. JDBC, or web crawling - helping British Library labs to find correct image legend texts in OCR XML from the book scanning project. See http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-28976849 I think Elasticsearch can handle the 230G zipped input. I got a copy from BL. No good algorithm exists yet. Maybe with ES? First step would be to design an index and to index/publish the OCR for better search? Not sure where the incentives are. Ever lasting fame, honor, glory, world domination, super power etc. Jörg On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 1:47 AM, Nikolas Everett <[email protected]> wrote: > We could always use help with CirrisSearch.
