== DSfin Financial Entity Resolution At Scale Challenge ==
 
'''Motivation''' 
 
Develop a reference financial-entity identifier knowledge-base linking heterogeneous
collections of entity identifiers.
 
Specify challenges, techniques and share expertise for linking multiple open collections.
 
Financial entity resolution (record linkage) is first step towards the extraction and
integration of complex financial knowledge across heterogeneous sources.

====Focus of the Workshop====
DSMM 2020 will explore the challenges of macro-modeling with financial and socio-economic datasets. The workshop will also showcase the '''Financial Entity Identification and Information Integration (FEIII) Challenge''' and will involve a challenge task over small business data.
The increasing availability of Open Data from a variety of sources including the Web, social media and the government, in conjunction with the growth of Big Data infrastructures and analytics tools, provides the ability to model complex ecosystems enabling cyber-human decision making. While data-driven models have emerged for a range of challenges from climate modeling to systems biology to personalized medicine, there has been relatively, little activity in macro-modeling using multiple heterogeneous financial and economic datasets.
[https://ir.nist.gov/feiii/]
 
The real promise of Open Data and Big Data lies in the dramatically increased value gained from integrating data from multiple sources, as illustrated by the following example: The systemic risks associated with the subprime lending market and the crash of the housing market in 2007 could have been modeled through a comprehensive integration and analysis of available public datasets. For example, the datasets relevant to the home mortgage supply chain include the following: (a) regulatory documents made available by MBS issuers, publicly traded financial institutions and mutual funds; (b) subscription-based third party datasets on underlying mortgages; (c) individual home transaction data such as sales, foreclosure and tax records; (d) local economic data such as employment and income-levels; (e) financial news articles. Integrating these datasets may have provided financial analysts, regulators and academic researchers, with comprehensive models to enable risk assessment.
 
Economists have been the leaders in creating longitudinal panel datasets and have had a successful history of using national datasets from the Census Bureau, the Department of Labor, etc., and global datasets from the UN, World Bank, etc. Here, too, there has been much less activity in modeling that integrated multiple heterogeneous datasets. While integrating datasets may pose technical, policy and privacy challenges, the potential benefits are immense.  For example, social media data often contains features that could enhance macroeconomic statistics derived from traditional survey-driven datasets.  Enriching longitudinal panel datasets with social media could explore hypotheses with a different focus or level of granularity; for example, one could study the decision making of individuals whose social media profiles would reflect their beliefs, intent, interests, sentiments, opinions, and state of mind. 
 
This workshop will explore the challenges of data science for macro-modeling with financial and/or economic datasets. Two workshops, in 2010 and 2012, brought together a diverse community of academic researchers, regulators and practitioners who articulated the range of multi-disciplinary research challenges for macro-prudential modeling of financial systemic risk. The National Bureau of Economic Research Summer Institute in 2012 offered a workshop on novel data-centric techniques that attracted both economists and computer scientists. The workshop will target attendees of these prior meetings and will build upon the solid foundation established at these prior events.
 
'''Targeted Audience''': We expect a mix of paper submissions and attendees with an interest in information integration, data mining, knowledge representation, stream data processing, etc. A small number of domain specialists from finance and economics are also expected to attend.

Overview

DSMM 2020 will explore the challenges of macro-modeling with financial and socio-economic datasets. The workshop will also showcase the Financial Entity Identification and Information Integration (FEIII) Challenge and will involve a challenge task over small business data. [1]

Past Proceedings are available here: [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7].

The engines of commerce and industry continuously generate rich heterogeneous data that reflect financial and economic activity. Unfortunately, this complex data is often not captured or curated in machine understandable form, or readily integrated across resources and data streams, presenting an obstacle for research, policy and industry use. The Business Open Knowledge Network (BOKN) is an effort to harness and exploit this data. BOKN is envisioned as a shared resource of curated knowledge, with tools to support large-scale data analysis, and interfaces to allow access to additional repositories. BOKN will create unprecedented opportunities for financial and socio-economic research, will inform data-driven fiscal and economic policy, and will empower innovators and entrepreneurs.

The DSMM workshop will explore technical challenges relevant to BOKN which includes combining state-of-the-art computational approaches for extracting, representing, linking, and analyzing data with complex and nuanced knowledge about the business domain. Domain-specific tools can leverage a wealth of unstructured data on the Web, as well as semi- structured data and time series datasets provided for regulatory or legal purposes, and reference datasets with standard identifiers and metadata that enable cross-resource federation. BOKN will include a hybrid knowledge graph that supports traditional symbolic knowledge representation enhanced by high-dimensional vector space embeddings capturing temporal evolution and semantic relationships that support machine learning applications.

We expect attendees with an interest in information integration, data mining, knowledge representation, network and visual analytics, stream data processing, etc. to participate.
