Applying Linked Data Technologies in the Social Sciences
No full textIn recent years Linked Open Data (LOD) has matured and gained acceptance across various communities and domains. Large potential of Linked Data technologies is seen for an application in scientific disciplines. In this article, we present use cases and applications for an application of Linked Data in the social sciences. They focus on (a) interlinking domain-specific information, and (b) linking social science data to external LOD sources (e.g. authority data) from other domains. However, several technical and research challenges arise, when applying Linked Data technologies to a scientific domain with its specific data, information needs and use cases. We discuss these challenges and show how they can be addressed. (author's abstract

The biggest damned hat: tales from territorial Alaska lawyers and judges
No full textIncludes bibliographical references and index.Alaska history from the days before statehood is rich in stories of colorful characters--prospectors, settlers, heroes, and criminals. And right alongside them were judges and lawyers, working first to establish the rule of law in the territory, then, later, laying the groundwork for statehood. [This book is a] collection of stories ranging from the gold rush to the 1950s. Built on interviews and oral histories from more than fifty lawyers who worked in Alaska before 1959, and buttressed by research into legal history, the book offers a ... portrait of law in the territory--from laying the groundwork for strong civil and criminal law to helping to secure mining and fishing rights to the Alaska Court-Bar fight, which pitted Alaska's community of lawyers against its nascent Supreme Court. Bringing to life a time long past--when some of the best lawyers had little formal legal education--[this book] fills ... a part of the story of Alaska's history.--Provided by publisher.Introduction -- Three lucky Swedes and one corrupt judge -- Wickersham chafes under Eagle's slow pace -- George Grigsby's biggest damned hat -- Becoming Norman Banfield -- W.C. Arnold: territorial Alaska's most powerful lobbyist -- Mildred Hermann and Dorothy Haaland: independent thinking women -- Hellenthal chooses Anchorage -- Tales of the silver fox -- Judge George Folta: license to hunt -- Remembering Judge Folta and Ketchikan's red light district -- Influence and discipline: policing territorial lawyers -- Buell Nesbett: navigating territorial waters and getting soaked -- Anchorage lawyers: creating a better system -- Rocky seas: the great Alaska court-bar fight -- Nesbett's surrogate -- Grace Berg Schaible and the Tanana Valley bar -- More frontier stories -- Afterword

A Note on the Reliability Tests of Estimates from ARMS Data
No full textUSDA uses the concept of "publish-ability" rather than statistical reliability of an estimate for quality validation of USDA estimates, which is solely based on the sample size and the coefficient of variation (CV). We demonstrate conceptually how the reliability of the sample mean can be tested by estimating the upper and lower bounds of the confidence interval for an unknown population mean using the CV. However, the reliability test for the sample mean can be made only under the normality assumption. USDA multiple-way Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) estimates are used to illustrate the relative measure of precision for sample-based estimators.Research Methods/ Statistical Methods,
