"Metrics in context" — FOSDEM 2021
17 slides Video2Any pulled straight from the conference recording — no upload, all in the browser.

Asura Enkhbayar spoke in the Open Research Tools and Technologies devroom at FOSDEM 2021 on why a citation count means nothing without the context it was collected in, and what a data specification for that context would look like. Video2Any stepped through the 10-minute recording and kept 17 clean frames, one per slide change. The slides are diagram-led rather than bulleted, which changes nothing about the extraction — Video2Any compares pictures instead of reading them, so a diagram that appears and holds is exactly as detectable as a line of text. Every image below is real output, extracted in a browser tab with nothing uploaded.

FAQ
- Are these the actual slides from the talk?
- Yes. Video2Any read the published recording and kept one image per slide change. FOSDEM publishes its 2021 recordings under CC BY 2.0 BE, which permits reuse with credit; we credit FOSDEM and link to the original file above.
- Do diagram-led research slides extract as well as text ones?
- Yes, because the detector compares pictures rather than reading them. What it needs is a change that then holds still, and a diagram provides that exactly as a bullet list does.
- Can I do this with a talk I have?
- Yes, and it is free for your own files. Drop the recording in and Video2Any detects each slide, keeps one clean frame per change, and exports an .pptx or PDF — in your browser, with nothing uploaded.
