Furthermore, there are several interlinking frameworks that find semantically equivalent geospatial resources in related RDF data sources. However, many existing Linked Open Data sources are currently sparsely interlinked. Also, many RDF generation and interlinking frameworks require a solid knowledge of Semantic Web and Geospatial Semantic Web concepts to successfully deploy them. This article comparatively evaluates features and functionality of the current state-of-the-art geospatial RDF generation tools and interlinking frameworks. This evaluation is specifically performed for cultural heritage researchers and professionals who have limited expertise in computer programming. Hence, a set of criteria has been defined to facilitate the selection of tools and frameworks.

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.

												  Knowledge Graphs on the Web – an Overview Arxiv:2003.00719V3 [CsJanuary 2020 Knowledge Graphs on the Web – an Overview Nicolas HEIST, Sven HERTLING, Daniel RINGLER, and Heiko PAULHEIM Data and Web Science Group, University of Mannheim, Germany Abstract. Knowledge Graphs are an emerging form of knowledge representation. While Google coined the term Knowledge Graph first and promoted it as a means to improve their search results, they are used in many applications today. In a knowl- edge graph, entities in the real world and/or a business domain (e.g., people, places, or events) are represented as nodes, which are connected by edges representing the relations between those entities. While companies such as Google, Microsoft, and Facebook have their own, non-public knowledge graphs, there is also a larger body of publicly available knowledge graphs, such as DBpedia or Wikidata. In this chap- ter, we provide an overview and comparison of those publicly available knowledge graphs, and give insights into their contents, size, coverage, and overlap. Keywords. Knowledge Graph, Linked Data, Semantic Web, Profiling 1. Introduction Knowledge Graphs are increasingly used as means to represent knowledge. Due to their versatile means of representation, they can be used to integrate different heterogeneous data sources, both within as well as across organizations. [8,9] Besides such domain-specific knowledge graphs which are typically developed for specific domains and/or use cases, there are also public, cross-domain knowledge graphs encoding common knowledge, such as DBpedia, Wikidata, or YAGO.

Abstract The work aims to verify the applicability of technologies and languages of the semantic web in creating an application for the management of electro- physiological experiments. The application will allow us to manage multiple experiments of the same characteristic type at once, display their metadata, and search in them. The theoretical part of the work describes the semantic web, selected data standards for electrophysiology, and the neuroinformat- ics laboratory of the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen. The analysis and design of the application describe requirements’ specifications and se- lect the data standard and technologies to implement the solution. Part of the proposal is also a description of the solution of writing metadata of experiments into the newly designed structure. Based on the design, the ap- plication for the selected data standard is implemented. The functionality of the application was verified on experiments of various types. Abstrakt Cílem této práce je ověření použitelnosti technologií a jazyků sémantického webu při tvorbě aplikace pro správu elektrofyziologických experimentů. Apli- kace umožní spravovat více experimentů stejného charakteristického typu najednou, zobrazovat jejich metadata a vyhledávat v nich.

												  A Question Answering System Using Graph-Pattern Association Rules (QAGPAR) on YAGO Knowledge BaseA Question Answering System Using Graph-Pattern Association Rules (QAGPAR) On YAGO Knowledge Base Wahyudi 1,2 , Masayu Leylia Khodra 2, Ary Setijadi Prihatmanto 2, Carmadi Machbub 2 1 1) Faculty of Information Technology, University of Andalas Padang, Indonesia 2) School of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, Institut Teknologi Bandung Bandung, Indonesia [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] , [email protected] Abstract. A question answering system (QA System) was developed that uses graph-pattern association rules on the YAGO knowledge base. The answer as output of the system is provided based on a user question as input. If the answer is missing or unavailable in the database, then graph-pattern association rules are used to get the answer. The architecture of this question answering system is as follows: question classification, graph component generation, query generation, and query processing. The question answering system uses association graph patterns in a waterfall model. In this paper, the architecture of the system is described, specifically discussing its reasoning and performance capabilities. The results of this research is that rules with high confidence and correct logic produce correct answers, and vice versa.

(Corresponding author: Mustafa Ali Bamboat) (Received 03 November 2020, Revised 22 December 2020, Accepted 28 January 2021) (Published by Research Trend, Website: www.researchtrend.net) ABSTRACT: The semantic web is an extension of the traditional web, in which contents are understandable to the machine and human. RDF is a Semantic Web technology used to create data stores, build vocabularies, and write rules for approachable LinkedData. RDF Framework expresses the Web Data using Uniform Resource Identifiers, which elaborate the resource in triples consisting of subject, predicate, and object. This study examines RDF libraries' performance on three platforms like Java, DotNet, and Python. We analyzed the performance of Apache Jena, DotNetRDF, and RDFlib libraries on the RDF model of LinkedMovie and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) in aspects measuring matrices such as loading time, file traversal time, query response time, and memory utilization of each dataset. SPARQL is the RDF model's query language; we used six queries, three for each dataset, to analyze each query's response time on the selected RDF libraries. Keywords: dotNetRDF, Apache Jena, RDFlib, LinkedMovie, MeSH.

												  Inscribing the Blockchain with Digital Signatures of Signed RDF Graphs. a Worked Example of a Thought ExperimentInscribing the blockchain with digital signatures of signed RDF graphs. A worked example of a thought experiment. The thing is, ad hoc hash signatures on the blockchain carry no information linking the hash to the resource for which the hash is acting as a digital signature. The onus is on the inscriber to associate the hash with the resource via a separate communications channel, either by publishing the association directly or making use of one of the third-party inscription services that also offer a resource persistence facility – you get to describe what is signed by the hash and they store the description in a database, usually for a fee, or you can upload the resource for storage, definitely for a fee. Riccardo Cassata has a couple of technical articles that expose more of the practical details: https://blog.eternitywall.it/2016/02/16/how-to-verify-notarization/ So what's published is a hexadecimal string indistinguishable from all the others which purportedly matches the hash of Riccardo's mugshot. But which? https://tineye.com/search/ed9f8022c9af413a350ec5758cda520937feab21 What’s needed is a means of creating an inscription that is not only a signature but also a resovable reference to the resource for which it acts as a digital signature. It would be even better if it were possible to create a signature of structured information, such as that describing a social media post – especially if we could leverage off’ve the W3’s recent Activity Streams standard: https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-core/ An example taken from the
