Data Mining: Exploring the Ethical Dilemmas Event

Event details

This event focuses on researchers who employ data mining techniques in their work. In this thematic context we aim to better understand the cross-disciplinary practice of data mining and its associated implications, such as privacy issues, ethics and the interplay with open data. PhD students as well as early career and experienced researchers from around the UK will come together to explore how they manage data that they have created when undertaking mining projects, and a panel session will help to identify key questions that researchers face when encountering these implications. Keynote speaker Dr. Tobias Blanke (Senior Lecturer at the Centre for e-Research from Kings College London's department of Digital Humanities) will be chairing a session featuring interactive presentation & discussion featuring Prof. Les Carr and Prof. Susan Halford from the University of Southampton.
