Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen,
gerne möchte ich Sie auf den Call-for-Abstracts der BigSurv18-Konferenz, die vom 25. bis 27. Oktober in Barcelona stattfinden wird, aufmerksam machen. Die BigSurv18 ist eine Konferenz der European Survey Research Association (ESRA) und soll Methodeninteressierte der Umfrage- und Big-Data-Welten zusammenbringen.
Der Einreichungsschluss für Abstracts ist am 28. Februar (s.u.)
Freundliche Grüße, Annelies Blom

Be a part of the first international conference on Big Data Meets Survey Science (BigSurv18) organized by the European Survey Research Association on October 25 -27 in Barcelona, Spain, and *submit your abstract by February 28^th , 2018* https://www.bigsurv18.org/conference!
BigSurv18 is interested in state-of-the-art research at the intersection of (1) computer and data science and (2) social science and how to combine approaches from these disciplines to collect, process, and analyze data to identify and overcome academic divides and make unified “Big Survey Data” population inference a reality. We invite presenters from the various disciplines and from around the world to submit an abstract for presentation at the conference to explore important issues pertaining to the combination of “big data” and survey data and their use in the social and data sciences. Relevant topics include, for example:
* using big data sources—such as data from social networks, traditional business systems, and the Internet of Things—in statistics production * the insights afforded by data science and machine learning and how they can support and complement traditional statistical analyses * designing of interfaces, virtual agents, and computational systems for interactive data collection * distributed infrastructures of data collection * practical applications for combining survey and big data sources to improve the quality of statistics production * considering the effects of sampling of individuals within populations vs. the implications of “N=all” * applying the Total Survey Error paradigm to adopting a total statistical uncertainty framework that will be needed to encompass the new quality issues associated with big data: Total Error
To accommodate differences in publication objectives and cultures across the disciplines papers will be eligible for consideration in one of two publication outlets:
* An edited conference volume/monograph to be published by John Wiley & Sons in 2019. * A peer-reviewed special issue of Social Science Computer Review http://journals.sagepub.com/home/ssc quickly following the conference.
