Image Source Introduction Clinicians and researchers continue to look at more and more at ways to utilize Electroencephalography (EEG)   data to support the diagnosis and treatment of various physical and mental health conditions.  However, not long after being  involved in EEG related research , you will soon realize that there are numerous formats available for EEG data recordings.  The lack of EEG data format consistency continues to present challenges in the transmission, exchange, and analysis of such data amongst researchers and impedes  advancements in brain-computer interface (BCI) and  biomedical research . At a minimum, EEG data consistency would reduce confusion amongst researchers and clinicians who rely on data sharing.  However, the benefits of EEG data standardization also include  the reduction or elimination of  expensive, time-consuming, and labor-intensive  data conversions to other formats.  This is very signifi...

I have been working on an IIPC funded project of profiling various web archives to summarize their holdings . The idea is to generate statistical measures of the holdings of an archive under various lookup keys where a key can be a partial URI such as Top Level Domain (TLD), registered domain name, entire domain name along with any number of sub-domain segments, domain name and a few segments from the path, a given time, a language, or a combination of two or more of these. Such a document (or archive profile) can be used answer queries like "how many *.edu Mementos are there in a given archive?", "how many copies of the pages are there in an archive that fall under netpreserve.org/projects/* ", or "number of copies of *.cnn.com/* pages of 2010 in Arabic language". The archive profile can also be used to determine the overlap between two archives or visualize their holdings in various ways. Early work of this research was presented at the Internet...
