Big Data and Cognitive Computing, Volume 8, Issue 2

February 2024 - 8 articles

Cover Story: Empirical social research has always been data-driven. In the age of Big Data, increasing availability and quantities of data open the door for a more in-depth study and simultaneously raise challenges for researchers. This paper systematically assesses the application domain of empirical social research and its sub-domain of qualitative content analysis to propose AI-based support to its user stereotypes. In addition to defining use cases, the paper designs an information system that supports researchers with ML-based category recommendations and expert system-based dashboard recommendations. The information system was designed in compliance with the AI2VIS4BigData reference model to ensure the implemented system components' completeness, comparability, and reusability. View this paper
