The Caltech Commitment: Summary of Findings from the Final Assessment
Full text linkIn 2002, the newly founded Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation made an unprecedented 10-year "Commitment" of 300 million, Caltech became the recipient of the largest donation ever made to an institute of higher learning. The Foundation's Commitment was meant to "advance Caltech's position at the forefront of higher education, technological development, and scientific research, and to foster significant scientific achievements in the life and physical sciences."In keeping with the Moore Foundation's practice of evaluating its major grantmaking projects, an independent final assessment was completed by Science-Metrix in 2013. The Foundation asked Science-Metrix to: * Understand the impact of the Commitment on advancing science broadly; * Examine the impact of the Commitment at the institution-level for Caltech; and * Articulate lessons learned about deploying a long-term, single-institution funding model
Design Goals for Federated Services across Caltech CODA
Full text linkCaltech CODA currently exists as 15 individual archives. Fortunately, each is an OAI Data Provider which allows OAI Service Providers the opportunity to federate the content into a central database for searching or other end user services. Ideally though, Caltech Library will design a Union Catalog using the OAI-PMH. This central database would provide a local implementation of a federated search interface, using a modification of eprints.org software. The Catalog would also support other eprints.org features out of the box: RSS, Browse by Year, Author, Subject and act as a single CODA Data Provider for outside Service Providers, such as DP9, Celestial and Google Scholar
Caltech-UCSD Birds 200
Full text linkCaltech-UCSD Birds 200 (CUB-200) is a challenging image dataset annotated with 200 bird species. It was created to enable the study of subordinate categorization, which is not possible with other popular datasets that focus on basic level categories (such as PASCAL VOC, Caltech-101, etc). The images were downloaded from the website Flickr and filtered by workers on Amazon Mechanical Turk. Each image is annotated with a bounding box, a rough bird segmentation, and a set of attribute labels
Data carpentry in the Caltech libraries
No full textSoftware Carpentry is a non-profit volunteer organization that was established in 1998 to teach science researchers basic, essential computing skills using a compressed, hands-on workshop approach, and focusing on open-source platforms wherever possible. Usually lasting 2 or 3 days, Software Carpentry workshops focus on teaching the basics of the unix command line, programming (using R or Python), database operation (using SQLite) and version control (using Git or Mercurial). The movement has expanded to include Data Carpentry lessons and workshops focused on cleaning and analyzing research data (including using OpenRefine), Library Carpentry workshops targeted at programming tools librarians could use in their work, and brand-new Author Carpentry lessons targeted at tools that support modern writing and publishing, such at managing bibliog. data using BibTeX and other open-source solns., managing scholarly identification using ORCiD, and other
topics. Three Caltech Librarians have completed the Instructor Training to become certified Instructors, and to
date we have held two Carpentry workshops for the Caltech community. Discussion will include the philosophy behind the Carpentry instruction approach and a debrief of the workshops held, its relevance to chem. researchers and information professionals, and why this style of instruction has found a home at the Caltech Library
