A Hierarchical SVG Image Abstraction Layer for Medical Imaging
A Hierarchical SVG Image Abstraction Layer for Medical Imaging Edward Kim1, Xiaolei Huang1, Gang Tan1, L. Rodney Long2, Sameer Antani2 1Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA; 2Communications Engineering Branch, National Library of Medicine, Bethesda, MD ABSTRACT As medical imaging rapidly expands, there is an increasing need to structure and organize image data for efficient analysis, storage and retrieval. In response, a large fraction of research in the areas of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) has focused on structuring information to bridge the “semantic gap”, a disparity between machine and human image understanding. An additional consideration in medical images is the organization and integration of clinical diagnostic information. As a step towards bridging the semantic gap, we design and implement a hierarchical image abstraction layer using an XML based language, Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). Our method encodes features from the raw image and clinical information into an extensible “layer” that can be stored in a SVG document and efficiently searched. Any feature extracted from the raw image including, color, texture, orientation, size, neighbor information, etc., can be combined in our abstraction with high level descriptions or classifications. And our representation can natively characterize an image in a hierarchical tree structure to support multiple levels of segmentation. Furthermore, being a world wide web consortium (W3C) standard, SVG is able to be displayed by most web browsers, interacted with by ECMAScript (standardized scripting language, e.g. JavaScript, JScript), and indexed and retrieved by XML databases and XQuery. Using these open source technologies enables straightforward integration into existing systems. -
Mapping Spatiotemporal Data to RDF: a SPARQL Endpoint for Brussels
International Journal of Geo-Information Article Mapping Spatiotemporal Data to RDF: A SPARQL Endpoint for Brussels Alejandro Vaisman 1, * and Kevin Chentout 2 1 Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires 1424, Argentina 2 Sopra Banking Software, Avenue de Tevuren 226, B-1150 Brussels, Belgium * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +54-11-3457-4864 Received: 20 June 2019; Accepted: 7 August 2019; Published: 10 August 2019 Abstract: This paper describes how a platform for publishing and querying linked open data for the Brussels Capital region in Belgium is built. Data are provided as relational tables or XML documents and are mapped into the RDF data model using R2RML, a standard language that allows defining customized mappings from relational databases to RDF datasets. In this work, data are spatiotemporal in nature; therefore, R2RML must be adapted to allow producing spatiotemporal Linked Open Data.Data generated in this way are used to populate a SPARQL endpoint, where queries are submitted and the result can be displayed on a map. This endpoint is implemented using Strabon, a spatiotemporal RDF triple store built by extending the RDF store Sesame. The first part of the paper describes how R2RML is adapted to allow producing spatial RDF data and to support XML data sources. These techniques are then used to map data about cultural events and public transport in Brussels into RDF. Spatial data are stored in the form of stRDF triples, the format required by Strabon. In addition, the endpoint is enriched with external data obtained from the Linked Open Data Cloud, from sites like DBpedia, Geonames, and LinkedGeoData, to provide context for analysis. -
Validating RDF Data Using Shapes
83 Validating RDF data using Shapes a Jose Emilio Labra Gayo a University of Oviedo, Spain Abstract RDF forms the keystone of the Semantic Web as it enables a simple and powerful knowledge representation graph based data model that can also facilitate integration between heterogeneous sources of information. RDF based applications are usually accompanied with SPARQL stores which enable to efficiently manage and query RDF data. In spite of its well known benefits, the adoption of RDF in practice by web programmers is still lacking and SPARQL stores are usually deployed without proper documentation and quality assurance. However, the producers of RDF data usually know the implicit schema of the data they are generating, but they don't do it traditionally. In the last years, two technologies have been developed to describe and validate RDF content using the term shape: Shape Expressions (ShEx) and Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL). We will present a motivation for their appearance and compare them, as well as some applications and tools that have been developed. Keywords RDF, ShEx, SHACL, Validating, Data quality, Semantic web 1. Introduction In the tutorial we will present an overview of both RDF is a flexible knowledge and describe some challenges and future work [4] representation language based of graphs which has been successfully adopted in semantic web 2.

None technical persons can only use natural language to specify their business requirements. However, the current version of Business process management and notation (BPMN) tools do not allow business analysts to implement their business processes without having technical skills. BPMN tool is a tool that allows users to design and implement the business processes by connecting different business tasks and rules together. The tools do not provide automatic implementation of business tasks from users’ specifications in natural language (NL). Therefore, this research aims to propose a framework to automatically implement the business processes that are expressed in NL requirements. -

RDF and Linked Data have broad applicability across many fields, from aircraft manufacturing to zoology. Requirements for detecting bad data differ across communities, fields, and tasks, but nearly all involve some form of data validation. This book introduces data validation and describes its practical use in day-to-day data exchange. The Semantic Web offers a bold, new take on how to organize, distribute, index, and share data. Using Web addresses (URIs) as identifiers for data elements enables the construction of distributed databases on a global scale. Like the Web, the Semantic Web is heralded as an information revolution, and also like the Web, it is encumbered by data quality issues. The quality of Semantic Web data is compromised by the lack of resources for data curation, for maintenance, and for developing globally applicable data models. At the enterprise scale, these problems have conventional solutions. Master data management provides an enterprise-wide vocabulary, while constraint languages capture and enforce data structures. Filling a need long recognized by Semantic Web users, shapes languages provide models and vocabularies for expressing such structural constraints. -

W3C liability, trademark and document use rules apply. Abstract The current Web is primarily made up of an enormous number of documents that have been created using HTML. 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. -
Using Rule-Based Reasoning for RDF Validation
Using Rule-Based Reasoning for RDF Validation Dörthe Arndt, Ben De Meester, Anastasia Dimou, Ruben Verborgh, and Erik Mannens Ghent University - imec - IDLab Sint-Pietersnieuwstraat 41, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium [email protected] Abstract. The success of the Semantic Web highly depends on its in- gredients. If we want to fully realize the vision of a machine-readable Web, it is crucial that Linked Data are actually useful for machines con- suming them. On this background it is not surprising that (Linked) Data validation is an ongoing research topic in the community. However, most approaches so far either do not consider reasoning, and thereby miss the chance of detecting implicit constraint violations, or they base them- selves on a combination of dierent formalisms, eg Description Logics combined with SPARQL. In this paper, we propose using Rule-Based Web Logics for RDF validation focusing on the concepts needed to sup- port the most common validation constraints, such as Scoped Negation As Failure (SNAF), and the predicates dened in the Rule Interchange Format (RIF). We prove the feasibility of the approach by providing an implementation in Notation3 Logic. As such, we show that rule logic can cover both validation and reasoning if it is expressive enough. Keywords: N3, RDF Validation, Rule-Based Reasoning 1 Introduction The amount of publicly available Linked Open Data (LOD) sets is constantly growing1, however, the diversity of the data employed in applications is mostly very limited: only a handful of RDF data is used frequently [27]. One of the reasons for this is that the datasets' quality and consistency varies signicantly, ranging from expensively curated to relatively low quality data [33], and thus need to be validated carefully before use. -

Rdfs:Frbr– Towards an Implementation Model for Library Catalogs Using Semantic Web Technology
rdfs:frbr– Towards an Implementation Model for Library Catalogs Using Semantic Web Technology Stefan Gradmann SUMMARY. The paper sets out from a few basic observations (biblio- graphic information is still mostly part of the ‘hidden Web,’ library au- tomation methods still have a low WWW-transparency, and take-up of FRBR has been rather slow) and continues taking a closer look at Se- mantic Web technology components. This results in a proposal for im- plementing FRBR as RDF-Schema and of RDF-based library catalogues built on such an approach. The contribution concludes with a discussion of selected strategic benefits resulting from such an approach.
