In this article, the authors introduce the notion of ABox intensity in the context of predicting reasoner performance to improve the representativeness of ontology metrics, and they develop new metrics that focus on ABox features of OWL 2 EL ontologies. Their experiments show that taking into...

Properties are used to describe entities, and a part of them are likely to be clustered together to constitute an aspect. For example, first name, middle name and last name are usually gathered to describe a person's name. However, existing automated approaches to property clustering remain far...

In this article, the authors propose a novel search model: Multi-Target Search (MT search in brief). MT search is a keyword-based search model on Semantic Associations in Linked Data. Each search contains multiple sub-queries, in which each sub-query represents a certain user need for a certain...

In this article, the authors design two metric sets considering Richness and Correctness based on a quasi-formal conceptual representation. They also design a novel metric set on overlapped instances of different KBs to make the metric results comparable. Finally, they use random sampling...

The study of paraconsistent reasoning with ontologies is especially important for the Semantic Web since knowledge is not always perfect within it. However, classical OWL reasoners cannot support reasoning with inconsistent ontologies. In this article, the authors present a plugin-based...

Recently, the number and heterogeneity of life science datasets published on the Web have increased significantly. However, biomedical scientists face numerous serious difficulties finding, using and publishing useful databases. To address these issues, the authors developed a Resource...

This article describes the capability of online data storage which has been enhanced by the emergence of cloud datacenter development. Distributed Hash Table (DHT) based image retrieval system using locality sensitive hash (LSH) has provided an efficient way to set up distributed Content Based...

This article describes the Linked Data approach, based on principles defined back in 2006, which can play an important role in the domain of semantic interoperabiity of government services. Therefore, this article explores the technical aspects and challenges of implementation of the revised...

This article describes how the assessment of semantic similarities between word pairs is an important component of understanding text which enables processing, classifying and structuring of textual resources. For this purpose, an ontology is a powerful technique when applied to compute...

This article describes how the Web of Data has emerged as the realization of a machine readable web relying on the resource description framework language as a way to provide richer semantics to datasets. While the web of data is based on similar principles as the original web, being interlinked...
