Collaborative Projects: EAGER: A virtual eXchange to support networks of creativity and innovation amongst Science, Engineering, Arts and Design (XSEAD)Intellectual MeritOne of the greatest challenges facing the United States in research and education is how to fundamentally encourage innovation across all sectors and spawn new solutions to address global challenges. Increasing research evidence and industrial innovations (i.e. mobile computing, social media) confirm that broad interdisciplinary collaborations that include both science and art fields have great potential for spawning creativity and innovation in computer science, engineering and the sciences. An emerging hybrid community of scientists, engineers, artists and designers is producing innovative and entrepreneurial research that advances new knowledge and proposes holistic solutions to societal challenges including health, education and environmental change. Yet, this burgeoning interdisciplinary community continues to face problems in its efforts to self-organize among constraints imposed by academic systems and historical biases; it continues to seek a dynamic and synergizing research and outreach exchange.Building upon lessons-learned, a new Virtual eXchange to support networks of creativity and innovation amongst Science, Engineering, Art and Design (XSEAD) will be developed. The XSEAD project will address the following urgent needs of the interdisciplinary science-art community: establish a cohesive view of the field and provide a mechanism to attract entrepreneurs and industry; create a venue for multimodal documentation of research outcomes; provide extensive databases of prior and current research; allow rapid dissemination of research outcomes; facilitate forming of collaborations and specialized sub-communities; document and help evolve science-art curricula efforts and evaluation approaches; provide context and support mechanisms for science-arts careers; establish evidence of the societal impact of interdisciplinary science-art integration. The software engineering development components of XSEAD will contribute further knowledge in three technical areas: Content organization (improve the effectiveness of algorithms for dynamic, usage based, organization of large multimedia databases); Recommendation algorithms (promote the use of multi-relational structures for providing effective recommendations); Community dynamics (develop novel algorithms to extract structures that encode meaningful interactions in online social networks).Broader ImpactXSEAD will expose general non-expert audiences to the evolution and potential of collaborative research across science and arts. It will attract the interest of young people searching for careers that combine the rigor of science and engineering with the creativity and reflection of arts and design. It will serve teachers and informal learning communities seeking exemplars for curricular development, active practitioners looking for further institutional opportunities to present and support their ongoing work, academics developing related interdisciplinary efforts and commercial companies seeking cross-trained expertise. XSEAD will enable rapid research exchange and in-depth peer-reviewed scholarship between the worlds of science and art and provide a unique and deeply engaging inroad to a vast and creative repository. XSEAD will help promote new paradigms for developing human centric solutions to complex societal problems (i.e. cost effective health and wellness, globalization and conflict, adaptive K-12 learning, electronic communication and security). These paradigms will combine knowledge across broad and diverse areas of human knowledge.

合作项目：EAGER：一个虚拟的交流，以支持网络的创造力和创新之间的科学，工程，艺术和设计（XSEAD）智力Meriti美国面临的最大挑战之一，在研究和教育是如何从根本上鼓励创新跨越所有部门，并产生新的解决方案，以应对全球挑战。越来越多的研究证据和工业创新（即移动的计算、社交媒体）证实，包括科学和艺术领域在内的广泛跨学科合作具有巨大的潜力，可以催生计算机科学、工程和科学领域的创造力和创新。一个由科学家、工程师、艺术家和设计师组成的新兴混合社区正在进行创新和创业研究，以推进新知识，并为健康、教育和环境变化等社会挑战提出整体解决方案。然而，这个新兴的跨学科社区在学术体系和历史偏见的限制下自我组织的努力仍然面临问题;它继续寻求一个充满活力和协同作用的研究和外展交流。在吸取经验教训的基础上，将开发一个新的虚拟交流，以支持科学，工程，艺术和设计（XSEAD）之间的创造力和创新网络。 XSEAD项目将解决跨学科科学-艺术界的以下迫切需要：建立对该领域的统一看法，并提供吸引企业家和工业界的机制;为研究成果的多模式文件提供场所;提供以前和当前研究的广泛数据库;允许快速传播研究成果;促进合作和专业次级社区的形成;记录并帮助发展科学艺术课程的努力和评估方法;为科学艺术职业提供背景和支持机制;建立跨学科科学艺术整合的社会影响的证据。 XSEAD的软件工程开发组件将在三个技术领域提供更多的知识：（提高算法的有效性，用于动态的、基于使用的、大型多媒体数据库的组织）;推荐算法（促进利用多关系结构提供有效建议）;群落动态（开发新的算法来提取在线社交网络中编码有意义的交互的结构）。专家观众跨越科学和艺术的合作研究的演变和潜力。它将吸引年轻人的兴趣，寻找职业，结合联合收割机的严谨科学和工程与艺术和设计的创造力和反映。它将服务于教师和非正式学习社区寻求课程开发的范例，积极的从业者寻找进一步的机构机会来展示和支持他们正在进行的工作，学者发展相关的跨学科努力和寻求交叉培训的专业知识的商业公司。XSEAD将使科学和艺术世界之间的快速研究交流和深入的同行评审奖学金，并提供一个独特的和深入参与的进展，以一个巨大的和创造性的知识库。XSEAD将有助于促进开发以人为本的解决方案，以解决复杂的社会问题（即具有成本效益的健康和保健，全球化和冲突，自适应K-12学习，电子通信和安全）的新范式。这些范例将联合收割机知识结合在广泛而多样的人类知识领域。
