In the Web scale, the large amounts of heterogonous data sources make manual annotation impracticable; automation is therefore unavoidable. Our work aims to develop a solution for automatic semantic annotation. We focus on data-rich web pages, i.e., pages that contain a list of records. All these pages are related to a particular domain. Most of data-rich web pages are generated automatically according to a template. Many solutions, based on wrapper induction techniques have been established to automatically extract data contained in this kind of pages. The solution we propose follows the data extraction phase. It transforms the data into a set of RDF assertions expressed in accordance with an ontology of the domain of interest. Our approach is based on instances. This means that starting from a set of instances we try to find the concept or property of the ontology that has the best match. We aim here to present the details of our approach and discuss the results produced in the primary experiments which turn to be promising.","PeriodicalId":180106,"journal":{"name":"2009 Third International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122078420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, an interest has been developed in automatic content extraction to construct ontologies of this knowledge to make it more widely available. With groups of domain experts distributed geographically, and the growing amount of medical literature, an important challenge is to develop collaborative workflows to support ways for domain experts to contribute in the ontology learning process. This paper presents a collaborative workflow for ontology learning based on coupling an Ontology Learning Tool (OntoLancs) with and Ontology engineer (Protégé) to provide semi-automatic support for text mining and a collaborative tool to model formal ontologies. The work presented in this paper was evaluated with a case study on a Clinical Practice Guideline of Diabetic Retinopathy. The major benefits of coupling OntoLancs with Protégé are: a) a higher level of automation in the creation of domain ontologies and models, and b) strengthened communication and information exchange among domain experts that are physically distributed. Validations of user experiences indicate the applicability of our approach.","PeriodicalId":180106,"journal":{"name":"2009 Third International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127253495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

XML filtering engines aim to provide efficient real-time querying of streaming XML encoded data. This paper provides a detailed analysis of several such engines, focusing on the technology involved, their capabilities, their support for XPath and their performance. Our experimental evaluation identifies which filtering engine is best suited to process a given query based on its properties. Such metrics are important in establishing the best approach to filtering XML streams on-the-fly.","PeriodicalId":180106,"journal":{"name":"2009 Third International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131754754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This opens a large spectrum of the possibilities for the end-users, but the design complexity is increasing. Therefore insuring quality during design is more than ever a challenge.

For each aspect, we discuss its requirements on quality and present related works valuable for the definition and the evaluation of ubiquitous information system design quality.","PeriodicalId":180106,"journal":{"name":"2009 Third International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126097720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
