  • An Ontological Approach for Querying Distributed Heterogeneous Information Systems Under Critical Operational Environments
    An Ontological Approach for Querying Distributed Heterogeneous Information Systems Under Critical Operational Environments Atif Khan, John Doucette, and Robin Cohen David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science, University of Waterloo {a78khan,j3doucet,rcohen}@uwaterloo.ca Abstract. In this paper, we propose an information exchange frame- work suited for operating in time-critical environments where diverse heterogeneous sources may be involved. We utilize a request-response type of communication in order to eliminate the need for local collection of distributed information. We then introduce an ontological knowledge representation with a semantic reasoner that operates on an aggregated view of the knowledge sources to generate a response and a semantic proof. A prototype of the system is demonstrated in two example emer- gency health care scenarios, where there is low tolerance for inaccuracy and the use of diverse sources is required, not all of which may be known to the individual generating the request. The system is contrasted with conventional machine learning approaches and existing work in seman- tic data mining (used to infer knowledge in order to provide responses), and is shown to oer theoretical and practical advantages over these conventional techniques. 1 Introduction As electronic information systems become mainstream, society's dependence upon them for knowledge acquisition and distribution has increased. Over the years, the sophistication of these systems has evolved, making them capable of not only storing large amounts of information in diverse formats, but also of reasoning about complex decisions. The increase in technological capabilities has revolutionized the syntactic interoperability of modern information systems, allowing for a heterogeneous mix of systems to exchange a wide spectrum of data in many dierent formats.

  • Semantic Resource Adaptation Based on Generic Ontology Models
    Semantic Resource Adaptation Based on Generic Ontology Models Bujar Raufi, Florije Ismaili, Jaumin Ajdari, Mexhid Ferati and Xhemal Zenuni Faculty of Contemporary Sciences and Technologies, South East European University, Ilindenska 335, Tetovo, Macedonia Keywords: Semantic Web, Linked Open Data, User Adaptive Software Systems, Adaptive Web-based Systems. Abstract: In recent years, a substantial shift from the web of documents to the paradigm of web of data is witnessed. This is seen from the proliferation of massive semantic repositories such as Linked Open Data. Recommending and adapting resources over these repositories however, still represents a research challenge in the sense of relevant data aggregation, link maintenance, provenance and inference. In this paper, we introduce a model of adaptation based on user activities for performing concept adaptation on large repositories built upon extended generic ontology model for Adaptive Web-Based Systems. The architecture of the model is consisted of user data extraction, user knowledgebase, ontology retrieval and application and a semantic reasoner. All these modules are envisioned to perform specific tasks in order to deliver efficient and relevant resources to the users based on their browsing preferences. Specific challenges in relation to the proposed model are also discussed. 1 INTRODUCTION edge. While PIR is mostly query based, AH is mainly browsing oriented.

This article presents novel strategies for optimising semantic reasoning for re- alising semantic applications and services on mobile devices. We have developed the mTableaux algorithm which optimises the reasoning process to facilitate service selection. We present comparative experimental results which show that mTableaux improves the performance and scalability of semantic reasoning for mobile devices.

When given a conjecture, an RTP attempts to resolve the negated conjecture with axioms from the knowledge base until the prover finds a contradiction. If the RTP finds a contradiction between the axioms and a negated conjecture, the conjecture is proven. The order in which the axioms within the knowledge-base are evaluated significantly impacts the runtime of the program, as the search-space increases exponentially with the number of axioms.

However, GEOBIA currently lacks a systematic method to formalise the domain knowledge required for image object identification. Ontology provides a representation vocabulary for characterising domain-specific classes. This study proposes an ontological framework that conceptualises domain knowledge in order to support the application of rule-based classifications. The proposed ontological framework is tested with a landslide case study. The Web Ontology Language (OWL) is used to construct an ontology in the landslide domain. The segmented image objects with extracted features are incorporated into the ontology as instances. The classification rules are written in Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) and executed using a semantic reasoner to assign instances to appropriate landslide classes. Machine learning techniques are used to predict new threshold values for feature attributes in the rules.

He allowed me to give my creativity free rein while providing excellent support on crucial decisions. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Professor Van de Walle for helping me outline my academic career, in which this dissertation is a milestone. Furthermore, I would like to thank Erik Mannens for initiating me into the Semantic Web. My gratitude goes out to Jos De Roo for detailing the use of Semantic Web technologies at Agfa-Gevaert, his helpful e-mails and the excellent Euler software. His colleague Giovanni Mels showed me an operational application of SPARQL services. Thanks to Anna Hristoskova for the insights into OWL-S composition and for lending me her composer program. Joshua Tauberer did a magnificent job with the SemWeb library, which he allowed me to extend. Last but not least, a heartfelt thank you to everyone that encouraged me during five intensive years of study, in particular my parents and Eddy Van Steenkiste. Special thanks to my mother for sustaining a pleasant study environment and to my father, who introduced me to computers as early as in 1993, when most things I write about were still in their infancy.

Also, see the glossary at the end of Brent’s biography.6 A ABox An ABox (for assertions, the basis for A in ABox) is an “assertion component”; that is, a fact associated with a terminological vocabulary within a knowledge base. ABox are TBox-compliant statements about instances belonging to the concept of an on- tology. Instances and instance records reside within the Abox Abductive reasoning Abduction (or abductive reasoning) is a mode of symbolic inference that involves the screening and selection from a domain D of the possible explanation paths to an outcome O possibly involving any element E of D, with the selection of candidate paths for inductive testing based on plausibility, economy, and potential impact; abduction does not produce probable results, only winnowed candidates.
