AN ONTOLOGY-BASED ASSISTANT FOR ANALYZING AGENTS’ ACTIVITIES. (Advisor: Albert Esterline), North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University This thesis reports on work in progress on software that helps an analyst identify and analyze activities of actors (such as vehicles) in an intelligence-relevant scenario. A system is being developed to aid intelligence analysts, IAGOA (Intelligence Analyst’s Geospatial and Ontological Assistant). Analysis may be accomplished by retrieving simulated satellite data of ground vehicles and interacting with software modules that allow the analyst to conjecture the activities in which the actor is engaged along with the (largely geospatial and temporal) features of the area of operation relevant to the natures of those activities. Activities are conceptualized by ontologies. The research relies on natural language components (semantic frames) gathered from the FrameNet lexical database, which captures the semantics of lexical items with an ontology using OWL. The software has two components, one for the analyst, and one for a modeler who produces HTML and parameterized KML documents used by the analyst. The most significant input to the modeler software is the FrameNet OWL file, and the interface for the analyst and, to some extent, the modeler is provided by the Google Earth API. ix CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION This thesis reports on research in progress that identifies and analyzes activities of actors (such as vehicles) in an intelligence-relevant scenario. A system is being developed to aid intelligence analysts, IAGOA (Intelligence Analyst’s Geospatial and Ontological Assistant) [1]. Analysis may be accomplished by retrieving simulated satellite data of ground vehicles and interacting with software modules that allow the analyst to conjecture the activities in which the actor is engaged along with the (largely geospatial and temporal) features of the area of operation relevant to the natures of those activities. Activities, such as movements of the vehicles, are conceptualized by ontologies. An ontology is a formal representation of a set of concepts within a domain and the relationships between those concepts. It is used to reason about the properties of that domain and may be used to define the domain. The research relies on natural language components (semantic frames) gathered from a large lexical resource namely, FrameNet [2], which is based on Fillmore’s frame semantics. FrameNet captures the semantics of lexical items with an ontology using the Web Ontology Language (OWL). It provides the ability to define activities by the targeted actors. Examples of such activities are move, hide, and survey. IAGOA associates an intelligence analyst’s understanding of a player’s activities with the geospatial features of the area of operation in which these activities take place. (The neutral term “player” refers to the monitored agent, which could be a 1 person but also, e.g., an unmanned vehicle. We use masculine pronouns simply for ease.) It will also help an analyst articulate conjectures about the player’s activities, stated in terms of verbs. The software has two components, one for the analyst, and one for a modeler who produces HTML and parameterized KML documents used by the analyst. The most significant input to the modeler software is the FrameNet OWL file, and the interface for the analyst and, to some extent, the modeler is provided by the Google Earth API.

These documents contain significant amounts of structured data, which is largely unavailable to tools and applications. When publishers can express this data more completely, and when tools can read it, a new world of user functionality becomes available, letting users transfer structured data between applications and web sites, and allowing browsing applications to improve the user experience: an event on a web page can be directly imported - 1 - How to Read this Document RDFa in XHTML: Syntax and Processing into a user’s desktop calendar; a license on a document can be detected so that users can be informed of their rights automatically; a photo’s creator, camera setting information, resolution, location and topic can be published as easily as the original photo itself, enabling structured search and sharing.

  • Mapping Between Digital Identity Ontologies Through SISM
    Mapping between Digital Identity Ontologies through SISM Matthew Rowe The OAK Group, Department of Computer Science, University of Sheffield, Regent Court, 211 Portobello Street, Sheffield S1 4DP, UK [email protected] Abstract. Various ontologies are available defining the semantics of dig- ital identity information. Due to the rise in use of lowercase semantics, such ontologies are now used to add metadata to digital identity informa- tion within web pages. However concepts exist in these ontologies which are related and must be mapped together in order to enhance machine- readability of identity information on the web. This paper presents the Social identity Schema Mapping (SISM) vocabulary which contains a set of mappings between related concepts in distinct digital identity ontolo- gies using OWL and SKOS mapping constructs. Key words: Semantic Web, Social Web, SKOS, OWL, FOAF, SIOC, PIMO, NCO, Microformats 1 Introduction The semantic web provides a web of machine-readable data. Ontologies form a vital component of the semantic web by providing conceptualisations of domains of knowledge which can then be used to provide a common understanding of some domain. A basic ontology contains a vocabulary of concepts and definitions of the relationships between those concepts. An agent reading a concept from an ontology can look up the concept and discover its properties and characteristics, therefore interpreting how it fits into that particular domain. Due to the great number of ontologies it is common for related concepts to be defined in separate ontologies, these concepts must be identified and mapped together. Web technologies such as Microformats, eRDF and RDFa have allowed web developers to encode lowercase semantics within XHTML pages.

  • Wiki Semantics Via Wiki Templating
    Chapter XXXIV Wiki Semantics via Wiki Templating Angelo Di Iorio Department of Computer Science, University of Bologna, Italy Fabio Vitali Department of Computer Science, University of Bologna, Italy Stefano Zacchiroli Universitè Paris Diderot, PPS, UMR 7126, Paris, France ABSTRACT A foreseeable incarnation of Web 3.0 could inherit machine understandability from the Semantic Web, and collaborative editing from Web 2.0 applications. We review the research and development trends which are getting today Web nearer to such an incarnation. We present semantic wikis, microformats, and the so-called “lowercase semantic web”: they are the main approaches at closing the technological gap between content authors and Semantic Web technologies. We discuss a too often neglected aspect of the associated technologies, namely how much they adhere to the wiki philosophy of open editing: is there an intrinsic incompatibility between semantic rich content and unconstrained editing? We argue that the answer to this question can be “no”, provided that a few yet relevant shortcomings of current Web technologies will be fixed soon. INTRODUCTION Web 3.0 can turn out to be many things, it is hard to state what will be the most relevant while still debating on what Web 2.0 [O’Reilly (2007)] has been. We postulate that a large slice of Web 3.0 will be about the synergies between Web 2.0 and the Semantic Web [Berners-Lee et al. (2001)], synergies that only very recently have begun to be discovered and exploited. We base our foresight on the observation that Web 2.0 and the Semantic Web are converging to a common point in their initially split evolution lines.

  • Linked Data Schemata: Fixing Unsound Foundations
    Linked data schemata: fixing unsound foundations. Kevin Feeney, Gavin Mendel Gleason, Rob Brennan Knowledge and Data Engineering Group & ADAPT Centre, School of Computer Science & Statistics, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland Abstract. This paper describes an analysis, and the tools and methods used to produce it, of the practical and logical implications of unifying common linked data vocabularies into a single logical model. In order to support any type of reasoning or even just simple type-checking, the vocabularies that are referenced by linked data statements need to be unified into a complete model wherever they reference or reuse terms that have been defined in other linked data vocabularies. Strong interdependencies between vocabularies are common and a large number of logical and practical problems make this unification inconsistent and messy. However, the situation is far from hopeless. We identify a minimal set of necessary fixes that can be carried out to make a large number of widely-deployed vocabularies mutually compatible, and a set of wider-ranging recommendations for linked data ontology design best practice to help alleviate the problem in future. Finally we make some suggestions for improving OWL’s support for distributed authoring and ontology reuse in the wild. Keywords: Linked Data, Reasoning, Data Quality 1. Introduction One of the central tenets of the Linked Data movement is the reuse of terms from existing well- known vocabularies [Bizer09] when developing new schemata or datasets. The semantic web infrastructure, and the RDF, RDFS and OWL languages, support this with their inherently distributed and modular nature. In practice, through vocabulary reuse, linked data schemata adopt knowledge models that are based on multiple, independently devised ontologies that often exhibit varying definitional semantics [Hogan12].

    __________________________________________PROCEEDING OF THE 13TH CONFERENCE OF FRUCT ASSOCIATION Data Models for Home Services Vadym Kramar, Markku Korhonen, Yury Sergeev Oulu University of Applied Sciences, School of Engineering Raahe, Finland {vadym.kramar, markku.korhonen, yury.sergeev}@oamk.fi Abstract An ultimate penetration of communication technologies allowing web access has enriched a conception of smart homes with new paradigms of home services. Modern home services range far beyond such notions as Home Automation or Use of Internet. The services expose their ubiquitous nature by being integrated into smart environments, and provisioned through a variety of end-user devices. Computational intelligence require a use of knowledge technologies, and within a given domain, such requirement as a compliance with modern web architecture is essential. This is where Semantic Web technologies excel. A given work presents an overview of important terms, vocabularies, and data models that may be utilised in data and knowledge engineering with respect to home services. Index Terms: Context, Data engineering, Data models, Knowledge engineering, Semantic Web, Smart homes, Ubiquitous computing. I. INTRODUCTION In recent years, a use of Semantic Web technologies to build a giant information space has shown certain benefits. Rapid development of Web 3.0 and a use of its principle in web applications is the best evidence of such benefits. A traditional database design in still and will be widely used in web applications. One of the most important reason for that is a vast number of databases developed over years and used in a variety of applications varying from simple web services to enterprise portals. In accordance to Forrester Research though a growing number of document, or knowledge bases, such as NoSQL is not a hype anymore [1].

Lenguajes y Sistemas Informaticos Universitat Jaume I, Castellón, Spain Co-supervised by Werner Kuhn, PhD Institute for Geoinformatics Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität, Münster, Germany Miguel Neto, PhD Instituto Superior de Estatística e Gestão da Informação Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal March 2009 Farm2.0: Using Wordpress to Manage Geocontent and Promote Regional Food Products Abstract Recent innovations in geospatial technology have dramatically increased the utility and ubiquity of cartographic interfaces and spatially-referenced content on the web. Capitalizing on these developments, the Farm2.0 system demonstrates an approach to manage user-generated geocontent pertaining to European protected designation of origin (PDO) food products. Wordpress, a popular open-source publishing platform, supplies the framework for a geographic content management system, or GeoCMS, to promote PDO products in the Spanish province of Valencia. The Wordpress platform is modified through a suite of plug-ins and customizations to create an extensible application that could be easily deployed in other regions and administrated cooperatively by distributed regulatory councils. Content, either regional recipes or map locations for vendors and farms, is available for syndication as a GeoRSS feed and aggregated with outside feeds in a dynamic web map.
