The introduction of semantics on the web will lead to a new generation of services based on content rather than on syntax. |:| Effective semantic search engines will provide means for successful searches avoiding the heavy burden experimented by users in
A great jump towards the advent of the Semantic Web will take place when a critical mass of web resources is available for use in a semantic way. This goal can be reached by the creation of semantic meta-data in the publication workflow, or by the develop
Ontology-based information exchange for knowledge management and electronic commerce via Semantic Web technologies and languages. This is the community site for Ontoweb, a European Union founded project about Ontology-based information exchange for knowle
This post is part contribution to the general Web 3.0 / Data-Web / Semantic Web discourse, and part experiment / demonstration of the Data Web. I came across a pretty deep comments trail about the aforementioned items on Fred Wilson's blog (aptly title
The emergence of P2P Inference Engines and domain-specific ontologies in Web 3.0 (aka Semantic Web) will present a major threat to the central “search” engine model. In Web 3.0 (aka Semantic Web) P2P Inference Engines running on millions of users’ P
Knowledge Web (KW) is a 4 year Network of Excellence project funded by the European Commission 6th Framework Programme. Knowledge Web began on January 1st, 2004. Supporting the transition process of Ontology technology from Academia to Industry is the main and major goal of Knowledge Web.
"They are built to be human-usable (...) are targeted primarily for storage/retrieval of personal information and serendipitous discovery of group information . (...) The development communities for each are abuzz with ideas for exploiting the structure"
A metamodel is a precise definition of the constructs and rules needed for creating semantic models...an attempt at describing the world around us for a particular purpose.
"...the conception of the Avant Garde is discarded as a general movement forward toward a utopian external and is reoriented to a general movement inward..." from "Avant Garde?" as seen in the Post-Dogmatist Quarterly
OntoSelect monitors the web to provide an access point for ontologies on any possible topic or domain that is automatically updated, organized in a meaningful way and with support for ontology search and selection. Selected ontologies may be used for ins
I've gotten hammered in the comments on my post about freebase for suggesting that the semantic web was only about controlled ontologies....What's going to be really interesting is to see how the Semantic Web technologies develop now that we have actual,
We believe that the enterprise ontology will become a cornerstone in many information systems in the future. In general terms, an ontology is an organization of a body of knowledge or, at least, an organization of a set of terms related to a body of know
Ontologies play a prominent role on the Semantic Web. They make possible the widespread publication of machine understandable data, opening myriad opportunities for automated information processing. However, because of the Semantic Web's distributed natur
Information vs Knowledge To a machine, knowledge is comprehended information (aka new information produced through the application of deductive reasoning to exiting information). To a machine, information is only data, until it is processed and compr
Machines (or machine-based reasoning, aka 'AI software' or ‘info agents’) would then be able to use those laboriously –but not entirely manually– constructed ontologies to build a view (or formal model) of how the individual terms within the infor
“The Semantic Web is a project that intends to create a universal medium for information exchange by putting documents with computer-processable meaning (semantics) on the World Wide Web.” "Google's very broad take on Web 3.0...enables you to use you
This document describes an ontology for publishing descriptions of historical events as Linked Data, and for mapping between other event-related vocabularies and ontologies.
Many biomedical terminologies, classifications, and ontological resources such as the NCI Thesaurus (NCIT), International Classification of Diseases (ICD), Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED), Current Procedural Terminology (CPT), and Gene Ontology (GO) have been developed and used to build a variety of IT applications in biology, biomedicine, and health care settings
Category search within digital repositories is poorly supported. This means that people wishing to access the assets of digital repositories are largely limited to keyword search, which means they must know what they want in order to look for it. Our part
Classical knowledge representation methods traditionally work with established relations such as synonymy, hierarchy and unspecified associations. Recent developments like
ontologies and folksonomies show new forms of collaboration, indexing and knowledge representation and encourage the reconsideration of standard knowledge relationships. In a
summarizing overview we show which relations are currently utilized in elaborated knowledge representation methods and which may be inherently hidden in folksonomies and ontologies.
