Undirected Node Attributed Social Network Graph of Twitter Users interested in plastic pollution - created in the framework of the PlasticTwist project

This dataset has been created in the framework of the Plastic Twist project (<a href="https://ptwist.eu/">Ptwist</a>) and more specifically using the Ptwist crowdsourcing application (<a href="https://crowdsourcing.plastictwist.com/">crowdsourcing.plastictwist.com/</a>). We are sharing the edge list and specific node attributes (hashtags) of Twitter users posting about plastic pollution. The dataset can be used for community detection,clustering, node importance, influence maximization tasks, etc. Each user is represented by a unique integer which has nothing to do with the official Twitter user ID. The dataset contains three (3) files:  <ul> <li>ptwist.edgelist: A list containing all the 1,362,863 edges between the users. When loaded they create an undirected graph of 800K+ users.</li> <li>node_attributes.txt: This file contains information about the hashtags used by each user. (e.g. "652003": ["SingleUsePlastic"] -> user 6529003 has used the hashtag SingleUsePlastic) </li> <li>annotated_graph: A pickle file which, when loaded, returns a <a href="https://networkx.github.io/">NetworkX</a> node attributed undirected graph.</li> </ul>

COSI-Article matrix: linking ISCB Communities of Special Interest to Wikipedia

Wikipedia is regarded as one of the most important channels for the public communication of science; English Wikipedia has around 1,500 articles relating to computational biology, which are frequently accessed as an educational resource. Joint efforts between the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) and the Computational Biology taskforce of WikiProject Molecular Biology (a group of expert Wikipedia editors) have considerably improved computational biology representation on Wikipedia in recent years. However, there is still an urgent need for further quality improvement, primarily while comparing to related scientific fields such as genetics and medicine. Facilitating the involvement of members from ISCB COSIs (Communities of Special Interest) would improve a vital open educational resource in computational biology, additionally allowing COSIs to provide a quality educational resource particular to their subfield. This first version of the COSI-Article matrix is a binary matrix identifying relevant ISCB COSIs for all Wikipedia articles relating to computational biology, defining a domain-specific open educational resource for each COSI. In addition, quality and importance ratings for each article allow identification of areas where domain experts could improve computational biology representation.

A gonad photographs dataset for fish of commercial interest

This dataset was established during a one year project under the IFREMER (Institut Français de Recherche pour l’Exploitation de la Mer) for the harmonisation of maturity data acquisition methods for bony fish of commercial interest, with the help of scientific campaign CGFS, EVHOE, IBTS and ACCOBIOM (Auber et al., 2021, Laffargue et al.,1987, Le Roy et al., 1988). This dataset contains 4133 standardised gonad’s macroscopic photos of 61 species of fish of commercial interests collected along the European coastal water and the Caribbean Sea. The scale used throughout this project is the  ICES maturity scale “WKASMSF” (ICES, 2018). To have more details about the photography process used for photos in this database, check the “Fish gonads’ photography protocol” from Le Meleder et al. (2022). This dataset is associated with a GitHub page hosting tools to generate maturity identification forms for fish of commercial interest. To have more detail about identification forms files and have the latest update, check the GitHub page “MaturityScaleTools” (<a href="https://github.com/LM-Anna/MaturityScaleTools">LM-Anna/MaturityScaleTools: Maturity scale tools to identify visual maturity phases (github.com)</a>). This dataset is meant to be enriched with time. Photos may be added to complete the missing maturity phases for every species of the world. To have more details about the dataset or to add new photos, please contact annalemeleder@orange.fr or <a href="mailto:laurent.dubroca@ifremer.fr">laurent.dubroca@ifremer.fr</a>.   Images: <ul> <li> Photo_MATURITY.zip : archive in zip format of  4133 macroscopic photographs of gonads (.JPG; 2Mo-6Mo; sRGB; 1080p). Each photo was taken with the same camera (OLYMPUS / Tough F2.0), on the same white background, with homogeneous lighting to avoid glints from overexposure. Since there are no duplicated photos’ names because all photos were taken with the same camera, names correspond to the one generated by the camera. Photos are sorted under three levels of directories : <ul> <li> First level : species’ scientific name (Example : Dicentrarchus labrax) : there are currently 61 different species listed </li> <li> Second level : F or M : the sex, with F from females and M for male </li> <li> Third level : A, B, C, D, E or F : the maturity phases of the ICES 2018 scale. In each folder are assigned the corresponding gonadic photos. </li> </ul> </li> </ul>   Data frames: <ul> <li> photo_mat.xlsx (13 columns / 4133 rows): data table (Excel format) listing all photos in the Photo_MATURITY database, as well as the data associated with the photos.
