While existing localization approaches mainly focus on enhancing the accuracy, particular attention has recently been given to reducing the localization algorithm implementation costs. To obtain a tradeoff between location accuracy and implementation cost, recursive localization approaches are...

Taxis have a vital role in the transportation system and Internet of Vehicles (IoV) techniques can be used to improve the fuel and time efficiencies of taxis. However, the existing work does not address the traffic congestion that may occur when a large amount of taxis gathers in certain queuing...

Cohesion and coupling metrics for a modular ontology provide an insight into the efficiency of the modularization technique employed. Most of such metrics are either syntax based or do not account for ontology hierarchy. The authors propose cohesion and coupling metrics with continuous scale of...

Company acquisition relation reflects a company's development intent and competitive strategies, which is an important type of enterprise competitive intelligence. In the traditional environment, the acquisition of competitive intelligence mainly relies on newspapers, internal reports, and so...

In this paper, the authors describe Musical Entities Reconciliation Architecture (MERA), an architecture designed to link music-related databases adapting the reconciliation techniques to each particular case. MERA includes mechanisms to manage third party sources to improve the results and it...

To reduce the complexity intrinsic to LD manipulation, software tools are used to publish or consume data associated to LD activities. However, few developers have a broad understanding of how software tools may be used in publication or consumption of Linked Data. The goal of this work is to...

In Natural Language Processing (NLP), sarcasm analysis in the text is considered as the most challenging task. It has been broadly researched in recent years. The property of sarcasm that makes it harder to detect is the gap between the literal and its intended meaning. It is a particular kind...

With the advent of Big Data Era, users prefer to get knowledge rather than pages from Web. Linked Data, a new form of knowledge representation and publishing described by RDF, can provide a more precise and comprehensible semantic structure to satisfy the aforementioned requirement. Further, the...

The increase in the amount of structured data published on the Web using the principles of Linked Data means that now it is more likely to find resources on the Web of Data that represent real life concepts. Discovering and recommending resources on the Web of Data related to a given resource is...

When researchers formulate search queries to find relevant content on the Web, those queries typically consist of keywords that can only be matched in the content or its metadata. The Web of Data extends this functionality by bringing structure and giving well-defined meaning to the content and...
