Statement by the Minister of Science, Research and the Arts in the State of Baden-Württemberg Professor Dr. Peter Frankenberg
6WDWHPHQW by the Minister of Science, Research and the Arts in the State of Baden-Württemberg Professor Dr. Peter Frankenberg on the $QQRXQFHPHQWRIWKH)LUVW5HVXOWVXQGHUWKH ([FHOOHQFH,QLWLDWLYH Check against delivery Embargo: 13 October 2006, 3:30 pm Ladies and gentlemen, o As has been mentioned before, “graduate schools” are one of the pillars of the Excellence Initiative programme. Together with “clusters of excellence”, they are also the prerequisite for funding in the third line of the programme — “institutional strategies”. o Excellent research requires excellent minds. In this regard graduate schools serve as building blocks for the future with long-term impacts. They enable outstanding doctoral students to be trained into excellent scientists and researchers, with ties to Germany. They help lay the cornerstone for the future excellence of German research. o We consider graduate schools to be instrumental in helping universities enhance their profiles over the long term and creating top-level academic institutions in Germany that can hold their own internationally. Within broad areas of expertise, graduate schools offer the best environments for doctoral students, and as internationally prominent and integrative institutions, they promote these students’ identification with their respective universities. o Competition in the Excellence Initiative has led to a broad search for innovative ideas on what constitutes good graduate training, and this has had a positive impact outside the programme as well. o You may wonder what the difference is between these new graduate schools and the traditional DFG-funded Research Training Groups. o A graduate school is supposed to enhance a university’s focus by promoting young researchers, thus adding academic and structural value to the university and its relevant departments.

Charaterizing RDF Graphs Through Graph-Based Measures
Semantic Web 12 (2021) 789–812 789 DOI 10.3233/SW-200409 IOS Press Charaterizing RDF graphs through graph-based measures – framework and assessment Matthäus Zloch a,c,*, Maribel Acosta b,d, Daniel Hienert a, Stefan Conrad c and Stefan Dietze a,c a GESIS – Leibniz-Institute for the Social Sciences, Cologne, Germany E-mails: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] b Institute AIFB, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany E-mail: [email protected] c Institute DBS, Heinrich-Heine University, Düsseldorf, Germany E-mails: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] d Center of Computer Science, Ruhr-University Bochum, Bochum, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Editor: Aidan Hogan, Universidad de Chile, Chile Solicited reviews: Gëzim Sejdiu, University of Bonn, Germany; Michael Röder, Paderborn University, Germany Abstract. The topological structure of RDF graphs inherently differs from other types of graphs, like social graphs, due to the pervasive existence of hierarchical relations (TBox), which complement transversal relations (ABox). Graph measures capture such particularities through descriptive statistics. Besides the classical set of measures established in the field of network analysis, such as size and volume of the graph or the type of degree distribution of its vertices, there has been some effort to define measures that capture some of the aforementioned particularities RDF graphs adhere to. However, some of them are redundant, computationally expensive, and not meaningful enough to describe RDF graphs. In particular, it is not clear which of them are efficient metrics to capture specific distinguishing characteristics of datasets in different knowledge domains (e.g., Cross Domain vs.
