Knowledge extraction from creators of presentation slides on a slide sharing service

Abstract

In this study, we present a method for extracting and representing knowledge of presentation slide creators based on the slide contents that are published on a slide sharing service. The proposed method regards the number of views, downloads, and likes from other users as the users rating for a presentation slide, and extract knowledge of the slide creator in terms of the usefulness and knowledge amount of the slide contents. In the experiment, we evaluate the feasibility of the proposed method by analyzing the presentation slides created by users on SlideShare, which is one of the most popular slide sharing service.
