Agenda & Notes

Review actions from 2020-05-22 Cornell LD4P2 Meeting notes

...

  • Enhanced Discovery - WHAM! (see also https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/sJI7Bg and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1)
    • See: Organizing doc and Pseudonym thought. Updates also on running notes page
    • Huda set up Solr index on personal dev vm to use solr configuration and schema modifications to mirror suggest index and try out pseudonym/see also solutions and update indexing process scripts. 
    • Tim working on RSpec tests to evaluate if autocomplete behaves as expected based on original set of use cases.
    • John set up version of gem (called "Nectar Guide") that now connects to Huda's dev VM Solr index to test out connection to separate Solr search index and display of info. 
    • Additional next steps: Identify whether additional use cases need to be met. Identify whether we should integrate knowledge panel work. 
    • Also note that had conversation with Kevin (Usability Working Group) to assess usability testing with students.  Currently, not looking at testing with students so would need to do testing with staff – want to have ideas by June 8 Usability WG meeting, then decide on plan to do some tests (through UWG or not) by end of June.
    • Usability - discussions with TIm and Kevin. We have multiple use cases but relatively straightforward features. Astrid will help out too. Document HERE with testing plans
    • Indexing - Huda has been working on pseudonym and see-also cases so that search results from Solr more closely match UI needs. Need to check this in local VM but then need to update main suggest index. Open question about throwing out URIs not currently in catalog then when anything new is added one would have check for it - not sure which strategy is better but perhaps not important to deal with updates now. Related, think that a 2-phase index process is best for now.Have a working demo!
  • Authority Lookups for Sinopia (Lookup infrastructure: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/2, Authority requests: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1)
    • Have worked on CERL issues with Sinopia that will be released soon, otherwise mostly working on Exhibits
    • QA performance
      • 2020-05-22 Dave is working through LoC authorities with new caching scheme, expect to hear about now
    • QA accuracy
      • 2020-05-29
        • Pretest results (see image in QA/Sinopia weekly notes).  Summary 60 tests run with 26 failing.  Of the 26, 4 were close to passing with the position off by 1 or 2.  The other 22, the expected subject URI wasn't in the results at all.  Geography data is especially bad at providing unexpected results regardless of whether it is coming from the cache or direct from the authority.  10 or the 22 failing tests were searching for a place.
        • Dave has updated the indexing for all LOC, AGROVOC, NALT, Getty, dbpedia, MeSH, RDA, CERL, and Ligatus.  These are ready for a post test run to see what impact it has on the test results.
