"SoBigData (2015-2024, H2020-Excellent Science Research Infrastructures) Integrated Infrastructure for Social Mining & Big Data Analytics",http://www.sobigdata.eu/,"European Commission, Italian National research Council and 32 academic and industrial partners from 12 EU countries","SoBigData (2015-2024, H2020-Excellent Science Research Infrastructures) Integrated Infrastructure for Social Mining & Big Data Analytics. A research infrastructure for open data science for social good, at the second stage of “Advanced community”, aggregating 32 partners of 12 EU Countries. 

SoBigData++ is a resource for sharing datasets, methods, research skills and computational resources for supporting the comprehension of social phenomena through the lens of BigData and Artificial Intelligence. Its uniqueness lies in its ability to make the effort of data science and artificial intelligence scientific communities accessible to multiple stakeholders on a unique ecosystem.  SoBigData++ is a distributed and multi-disciplinary RI aimed at using social mining, big data and artificial intelligence to understand our globally-interconnected society. The RI’s service platform empowers researchers for the design and execution of large-scale social mining experiments. Pushing the FAIR (findable, accessible, Interoperable, responsible)  and FACT (Fair, Accountable, Confidential and Transparent) principles, the RI  renders social mining experiments more efficiently designed, and repeatable by leveraging concrete tools that operationalize ethics, incorporating values and norms for privacy, fairness, transparency and pluralism. SoBigData++ RI is based on three pillars: 1) a data ecosystem for procurement, access, and data curation. 2) a platform of interoperable social data mining tools, and methodologies. Over 200 resources are available: curated data sets, analytical tools and services from six thematic clusters: text and social media mining; social network analysis; human mobility analytics; web analytics; visual analytics and social data. 3) a community comprising scientific, industrial and third-party stakeholders, such as policymakers, it counts  6,000 users registered to the e-infrastructure.

SoBigData++ operates in six domains: Societal debates and online misinformation studies how the information is created and how it influences debates; Sustainable cities for citizens focuses on urban challenges, aiming at value creation for city stakeholders; Demography, economics and finance 2.0 measures the patterns of well-being and poverty at a local and global scale; Migration Studies analyses the development of new methods for studying migration phenomenon; Sports data science combines data with analytical tools to unveil the complexity underlying sports; Social Impacts of AI provides a forum for studying impacts of artificial intelligence on our society.  Finally, a special interest group is dedicated to Network Medicine aimed at combining Big data, omics, and network science to advance the frontiers of medicine

SoBigData++ integrates 31 key European data science and AI centres. SoBigData++ combines research areas related to big data analytics, computational social science, digital humanities, city planners, and human-centred artificial intelligence. The project includes competences on ethics, economic analysis, media ecology, contrast to misinformation, environmental sustainability and energy saving.

SoBigData++ works in synergy with different H2020 projects and network of excellence: HumaneAI-net, TAILOR, AI4EU, WeVerify, Pericles, NoBias, Clarin, and five SoBigData scientists are PIs of ERC grants in artificial intelligence.
