Cross Domain Initiatives (XDs)

GraphXD – Graph Analysis Across Domains

BIDS GraphXD – Graph Analysis Across Domains is a cross-domain initiative that promotes interdisciplinary collaboration and training for researchers, scientists, and theorists interested in using graphs and network analysis for applications in a variety of fields across STEAM including (but not limited to) anthropology, art, biology, computer science, economics, history, linguistics, mathematics, physics, and sociology.

Graphs and networks are models of data – usually composed of nodes and vertices connected by edges – that can be used to analyze and to visualize...

ImageXD – Image Analysis Across Domains

BIDS ImageXD – Image Analysis Across Domains convenes researchers, scientists, and theorists (of all learning levels) who work with images as a primary source of data, to learn about the latest developments in a wide range of research domains and to promote interdisciplinary collaboration.

Incredible advances are being made in image processing techniques, tools, and sampling modalities which, together with an increased accessibility to modern imaging equipment, has made image data ubiquitous across many fields, with scales ranging from microscopy to radio astronomy...

TextXD – Text Analysis Across Domains

BIDS TextXD – Text Analysis Across Domains brings together researchers from across a wide range of disciplines, who work with text as a primary source of data, whether they identify as computer, social, data, or information scientists, including linguists. We work to identify common principles, algorithms and tools to advance text-intensive research, and break down the boundaries between domains, to foster exchange and new collaborations among like-minded researchers. TextXD aims to:

Foster a cross-disciplinary community of text processing experts from...
