Talk 1: Are you supporting the right politician? - Graph Visualization of Voting Data by Cheuk Ting Ho
Description:
(30 mins) It’s time for the election, a major of people will vote for the politician according to the political parties they affiliated. Do you really know the standpoint of politician that you vote for on different issues? Do you trust the politician that you vote for is representing you in the council? Have you been monitoring their votes in the council on different issues? In this talk, we will be identifying real ‘parties’ by voting records rather than by stated affiliation using a knowledge graph. We will walk you through how to do it and hopefully, you will find the representatives that you vote for are doing the right things for you.
