May 26, 2015:

• Dr. Lonsdale: got OntoSoar code working; has troubles with PDFIndexer build; needs to get 4-ary relationships going, but has places and other things going
• Tae Woo: worked on OSMX-to-JSON subsume part; it will merge if it's possible to merge; almost done; looked into JavaScript code on dithers; interested in IDE for JS, but our recommendation is text editor + Chrome Web Developer tools; using annotator.cm
• Dr. Woodfield: implemented name equivalence we had discussed last week; aside on dates: how do you combine new wine with old bottles? (Okay, I'm interpolating here. Still needs to extract and populate model instance.
• Dr. Embley: submitted QMMQ paper; also working on paper with Dr. Nagy and others (submitted); in the middle of writing third paper with Thomas; finished JSON merge to OSMX on the back-end of COMET; it's working for the simple case (one page with no complex annotations or page-crossing annotations); need to do test cases, refactor
• Christopher: worked with Tae Woo on getting certain info from COMET; got ListReader to take a filename instead of JSON on the command line; seems to work the same as the JSON-on-command-line version; still fails on Christopher's machine, but we think it should run on dithers
• Dr. Liddle: progress on ER2015, QMMQ paper, worked with Christopher on ListReader interface, worked with Dr. Embley on programming issues, bees
• Sidebars:
  • Schedule
    • Drs. Woodfield & Lonsdale gone for next two Tuesdays; Dr. Liddle gone next Tuesday; Dr. Embley gone June 4-8; long term; consider changing to Thursdays
  • Names that aren't quite the same but really are the same
  • More discussion on COMET and moving it to the general pipeline
  • Dr. Liddle & Christopher on Friday at 9am; Kilbarchan pages

May 19, 2015:

• Dr. Liddle: worked with a couple of others on programming issues; ER2015 program decisions have been made! Next up: QMMQ paper and more DKE reviews
• Tae Woo: made some changes in GreenFIE; created a main class for report feature; added ensemble option as well; looked at JavaScript and did a Hello World for JS; needs specific help on particular topics in JavaScript
• Dr. Woodfield: did lots of refactoring and working on his model (data structure for holding most info)
• Christopher: was working on a project and realized it was 5pm, so that explains missing last week; worked with Dr. Liddle on getting ListReader integrated; found command-line parser library; next up: get it into Maven, integrate with ListReader
• Dr. Embley: spent time coding the form merge to generate OSMX (replacing both David's and Peter's code); spent time writing on ListReader HMM paper; need to get COMET integrated with the directory structure
• Dr. Lonsdale: got rid of Netbeans issue; now trying to take three development versions of OntoSoar and integrate them into one; need to compare with BookProject; will continue on this
• Sidebars:
  • Tae Woo and Christopher will get together and discuss JavaScript and so forth
  • Dr. Woodfield's constraint capture in OSMX
  • Christopher & Dr. Liddle will get together to work on Maven integration 9am tomorrow (May 20)

May 12, 2015:

• Dr. Lonsdale: got a lot of FH stuff done; can't commit code from Family History PC
• Dr. Liddle: helped various people with various programming tasks; spent time with Christopher on ListReader integration; working on ER2015
• Peter: has been in Michigan and finished two semesters of classes; thinking and reading about how to do next level of research; will be concentrating on that this summer; wants to start applying it to the family history domain
• Tae Woo: finished report part of GreenFIE; thinking about how COMET should interact with GreenFIE
• Dr. Packer: helped Dr. Embley run ListReader on his machine
• Dr. Woodfield: reviewed a probabilistic cardinality constraints paper for ER2015; has about 1600 lines (clean compile but untested) dealing with model and constraints; first approach is a batch report; has participation constraints and object-set cardinality constraints; also co-occurrence constraints; later: general constraints; tried to generate a few little models and had trouble with relationship-set connections
• Dr. Embley: updated PowerPoint, created handout, but doesn't have time scheduled yet; revised FROntIER extraction rules and ran it over the full book; has output from both FROntIER and GreenFIE; working around COMET; currently rewriting David's converter for the family history example, hoping to finish this week
• Sidebars:
  • GreenFIE and COMET integration
  • OSMX blockers for Dr. Woodfield

May 5, 2015:

• Main topic: Dr. Embley presentation dry run [for Craig Miller & Tom Creighton in mid-May]
• Prayer: Tae Woo
• Dr. Liddle: worked with Dr. Embley on ensemble; next up: UI/UX design for ensemble GUI
• Dr. Packer: debugged ListReader, and it needs testing
• Tae Woo: was sick; okay now; thinks he's fixed all the bugs in Osmx2Json; needs to write more test cases; works on the current test set; needs to discuss with Dr. Embley
• Dr. Woodfield: plowed through the paper Liddle gave him
• Christopher: fixed the problem with deleting the last field in a multiple-field group; fixed the asterisk problem when adding a record above the first one; needs to meet with Dr. Liddle (Thu. 9am)
• Dr. Embley: finished draft of QMMQ paper, interacted with Joseph to clarify a couple of things; worked on OsmxMerger to decouple from Peter's config file; that works now (lots of refactoring needed); worked on “generated GreenFIE” rules
• Sidebars:
  • Rename GreenFIE-HD to GreenFIE (after 3pm)

Apr. 28, 2015:

• Meeting is at 2pm
• Dr. Liddle: met with Christopher, made progress on ListReader integration; found NPE that needs Dr. Packer's help
• Dr. Packer: graduated officially; tried running ListReader with new NetBeans looking for problem on Dr. Embley's machine; the problem doesn't replicate on Dr. Packer's machine; will continue looking (more deeply)
• Christopher: met with Dr. Liddle; not much else to report there; fixed two issues: hover highlighting vs. ListReader highlighting (disabled hover highlighting when in ListReader mode), also issue when populating records from ListReader that is now fixed; might have found the issue with using the “-” key on the last field in a nested group (just needs to find a way to determine the last record)
• Dr. Woodfield: got a sample OSMX model instance populated; started looking at some high-level design concepts; two design ideas: constraint checkers with plugin architecture (dynamic load from jar file(s)) and constraint handlers that plugin with the constraint checkers
• Dr. Embley: has finished getting a full line in the agreed-upon directory structure; there is some refactoring that we perhaps should do w.r.t. Peter's merger/evaluator; has created a PowerPoint deck for presentation to be given in a couple of weeks; where does the constraint enforcer fit in, and what are the implications w.r.t. COMET? Biggest thing: discovered that QMMQ paper is due Saturday. Next up: begin to automate the running of tools through the pipeline (as opposed to pushing them through by hand)
• Sidebars:
  • ListReader NPE
  • OSMX + plugins architecture
  • Liddle/Embley QMMQ and tools quirks
  • Ensemble automation
